Vivek Dahiya discloses the reason why he initially did NOT want to marry Divyanka Tripathi; Says ‘All I was concerned…’

MUMBAI : Vivek Dahiya and Divyanka Tripathi Dahiya have been happily married for nearly eight years. Vivek Dahiya got married in an arranged marriage and reportedly revealed that he initially did not want to marry the Yeh Hai Mohabbatein actress.

The actor discussed the matter with the popular news portal and disclosed that he initially did not talk to Divyanka since he couldn't afford such a big actress. He didn't know then that Divyanka was a simple girl looking for the little things in life.

Vivek said, ''I met Divyanka through Pankaj Bhatia, a mutual friend of us. He would often pull my legs, would randomly abuse me to see if I get angry or revert to him, so when he thought that the guy is balanced and mature, he thought that the guy is good for Divyanka. He called up my mother-in-law and told her about me. Then he started pitching both me and Divyanka. All I was concerned about what how could I afford such a big actress? Maine socha, unka ek certain life style hoga, certain tarike se wo jeeti hogi, itna bada ghar hoga, aisi gaadiyan hogi, so I thought, how could I afford this?''

The actor later revealed how his friend Pankaj reacted to this and said, ''When I discussed this with Pankaj, he told me one thing and that is I will thank him all my life. He said, Divyanka does not care about any of these things. He literally sold both of us to each other individually. He told me that Divyanka is absolutely not arrogant about the fact that she is such a big star. She is just a simple girl, who is only looking for simple things. She is only looking for that true feeling of love. If you can love her, then there is nothing that she would want from you.''

After that, the rest is history because the actor met Divyanka at Pankaj's insistence.
