Mika Singh: I’ve said no to 150 rishtas in the last 20 years

After attending many weddings as a performer, it seems like the wedding bells are finally going to ring for Mika Singh. In the age of dating apps, the singer has decided to find love on TV through a reality show. Going all out to find a life partner for himself, the Sawan Mein Lag Gayi Aag singer will be seen on an upcoming TV show Swayamvar-Mika Di Vohti. He shares that he was offered to do the show a decade back as well but he didn’t take it up then. However, now he felt that it was time for him to take the plunge.

In a chat with us, Mika revealed why he decided to take this route to find himself a partner. He says, “I think many people would want to have a swayamvar like this. I am lucky that I got an offer like this after many years. I was not ready earlier, I have said no to at least 100-150 rishtas in last 20 years, and my work was really important to me. People would think that I like to party and hangout with girls and that is my reason of not getting married but that was never the case. Meri family mein aaj tak meri itni himmat nahi hui ki main Daler paaji ko apni koi girlfriend dikhaun, humare mein yeh system nahi hai. Woh respect rehti hai. Finally, when this offer came Daler paaji said, ‘Kar le, kya pata koi mil jaye. Tu waise toh humari baat nahi maan raha.”
