In an interview with India Today, the actor has finally put an end to the rumours about her wedding.
While Ileana D’Cruz kept quiet about Michael Dolan during the interview, the actor became tearful when asked how he had been supportive. She raved about her relationship with Michael, saying, “Married life is going beautifully. It’s really hard to say what I love about him the most. I’ll have to really think because I feel like every time I come up with an answer, there’s something else that, you know, trumps that the next day.”
She added, “He’s seen me through my worst times, my absolute worst times. He has seen me through some of my best times as well. He’s just been constant from day one. He has been this constant support of love, and he’s just been consistent. Weirdly, it is exactly like the dialogue from Do Aur Do Pyaar, he shows up every day.”
On the work front, Ileana’s first film in years, Do Aur Do Pyaar, debuted on April 19, 2024. The film, directed by Shirsha Guha Thakurta and starring the actor, Vidya Balan, Pratik Gandhi, and Sendhil Ramamurthy, is about extramarital affairs.
