VIDYA BALAN ON MARRIAGE

“Actually, I’ve never wanted to be married, I have to be honest with you. I never saw myself as someone who could get married. I wanted to be with someone, but I never saw myself as getting married. But at a certain age, Parineeta happened when I was 26, and by 30 I’d seen a lot of success, and I wanted to share it with someone," the actor said.

Vidya added, "I dated a few people but it didn’t quite work out. But I was feeling lonely. At the end of the day, you want to share your triumphs and disasters with someone outside of the familyâ€æ I dated a few people, and it didn’t turn out well. It actually put me off, and I decided, you know what, forget it.”
