This Valentine’s Day, we will be travelling together: Harsh Nagar & Tanvi Vyas

Vadodara’s Tanvi Vyas, actor and Femina Miss India Earth 2008, got married to Delhi boy Harsh Nagar (he currently plays the lead role in ) in December 2018. In a chat with us, they talk about their plans for Valentine’s Day, their journey together and more. Excerpts from a chat:

As actors, we don’t have any holiday on Valentine’s Day but still, we take out time and usually celebrate the day by dining out together. We pick a new restaurant every time and it’s a nice feeling to go out on a date.
Having dated fornine years before tying the knot, we have had some really memorable V-Day dates over the years. We have been a part of each other’s journey through every phase-from the time we were students to when we started earning, and now as husband and wife. So, every V-Day has been a little different from the previous year. This time, Harsh has got a break after a very long time and so, we are planning to travel and meet our families in Delhi and Vadodara.

We first met at an acting class in 2009 and I was instantly attracted to her. She was the most beautiful girl in the class and there was always this buzz around her, since she was the reigning Femina Miss India Earth. I feel lucky to have married her and life hasn’t changed much after marriage. The only difference is that I no longer have to drop her home (laughs)!
I was very popular in the class and always surrounded by students. So, Harsh probably thought (laughs)! We began with a dance class and I remember it was held in a room that was fitted with mirrors. I would always wait for Harsh to join in. I never thought of him as a friend, we were attracted to each other right from day one. So, for us, it was attraction at first sight! We have known each other for 13 years now and it has been a fabulous journey.

I really loved Tanvi’s performance in the Telugu film and the character she portrayed was very close to how she is in real life-bubbly and expressive. It certainly helps when your partner is from the same profession. When the pandemic started, my debut TV show became a victim of it and went off air abruptly. I also lost a very close friend, who was just 28 years old and the only daughter of her parents. It was a very tough phase and the pandemic has made me more grateful for all that I have, including such an understanding wife.
I come from a family of doctors and really loved Harsh’s performance in , in which he played a doctor.For me, the last two years have been really tough. We shifted to a new house amid the pandemic and it was not easy because it happened during the Mumbai monsoons. Also, I lost out on work as projects got stalled due to the pandemic. Ever since Harsh started shooting for , it has been really hectic for him and there were times when I would feel lonely at home. But it helps to have a partner who understands what you are going through.
