Dhanashree Verma clarifies rumours about her divorce

Verma revisited her separation and addressed circulating rumours. Speaking to host Aditya Narayan, she said, “Officially, it has been almost a year. It happened quickly because it was mutual, that’s why when people say alimony, it’s wrong. Just because I am not saying anything, you will go on saying anything? My parents have taught me to only justify to people whom I care about. Why waste time explaining those who don’t even know you?"

Dhanashree Verma reflected on her marriage duration

When asked about the length of their marriage, Dhanashree Verma said, “We were married for four years, we dated 6-7 months before that."

Speaking about the accusations around alimony, Verma added, “Eventually, you get hurt when you see that happening. It was not needed. None of it is true. I felt worse wondering why did he do it? It’s okay, I will always keep his respect, that is what I believe in. Now, I don’t think I can date anybody."

I am told I am getting influenced, but that’s not true; I don’t like this environment."
