Pooja Bhatt is fed up of people telling her ‘shaadi kar le’, says, ‘I don’t need to be rescued’

She also shared what her response is when she’s faced with such questions. She said, “I am like, ‘Boss, I don’t need to be rescued’.” She added, “Some people come up to me and say ‘shaadi kar le’ (get married), but kyun kar lun shaadi (why should I get married)? They want to introduce me to someone. But I’m not looking for an introduction. I’m not looking for a matchmaker. If the universe wants me to meet somebody, it will happen. It will be a companion, not a solution. A man cannot be a solution to a woman. We have to be able to walk our own path.”

Pooja asserted that finding a companion would be the “greatest gift,” but she doesn’t particularly need a life partner. She said, “If I find a companion, that would be the greatest gift. If I don’t, that’s okay because I am grateful for my life. I have my family. I got great wealth through my friendships. I have my dad. I have my work. Life is beautiful. I’m not incomplete because I’m single.”

Pooja, in her 33 year-long career as an actor, filmmaker and film producer, has always been open about her relationships. During her Bigg Boss OTT 2 stint, she had opened up about her marriage to Mumbai-based restaurateur Manish Makhija followed by their divorce in 2014, 11 years after they tied the knot. She was then linked with actor Ranvir Shorey.
