The actor is married to Ajay Devgn. The two tied the knot in 1999 after dating each other for a few years.

For me, it’s really about the script. The script is never about one character. It is always about everybody’s character. In this series, in the adaptation, (everything) is so well rounded and well written. I loved the script. The script is my king,” the actor shared.
