You’ve probably rejected your mother's pleas a million times when it comes to ‘looking for rishtas’ aka marriage. So many WhatsApp photos of guys, or a sudden, surprised meeting of the guy and his family, coordinated with your parents are not really uncommon. Feeling pressurised to marry is one of the most common feelings that Indian women have to endure. Of course, it’s not the law but society’s will. According to society’s age-old belief, it doesn’t matter if you are successful or not, getting married should be one of your main priorities. Countless women in India feel pressurised to marry and relate it to their self-worth.
Raima Sen, too, gets irked whenever one asks her about her marriage plans. While speaking to the media in Kolkata recently the seasoned actor made it clear she won’t get married, at least any time soon. While she is much relieved to see her personal life not grabbing headlines, the ‘Dwitiyo Purush’ actor insists that questions about her love life rather irritate her.
According to her, marriage can’t be a ‘goal’ or a ‘final destination’ in one’s life. She also feels marriage is not like a chapter that will complete her life. Raima says she doesn’t understand why people think that she’s not happy in her life because she isn't married yet. The actress insists she is very much happy as being a single gives her much-needed freedom and she won’t have to answer to anyone except for her parents.
