What a refreshing interview! Loved the part where he said marrying an actress was one of the best decisions he made because most Malayalam actors make it a point to note that they would never marry an actress or anyone from the industry. It is so hyproctrical to publicly announce that one would never marry from their profession.

[@drvonyt8897]

Definitely! Sometimes you see actors have affairs with their co-actors and then bow down to family pressure and then settle for a girl from an influential family (political or business), within their caste etc. In every industry this exists. Surprising to me that even after so many years females working in this industry face so much misogyny and are looked down upon. Fahadh, Suriya and Ranveer Singh they all married their contemporaries who know and support their endeavours and work shoulder to shoulder with them.
