Social media is a major part of my work and I can’t give up which is why I have gathered courage today and my creative side here to come back on Instagram. Just requesting you guys to be little more sensitive and focus on our talent and skill because at the end of the day guys we are all here on this medium just to entertain you guys. So just don’t forget I’m also just a woman, just like your mother, your sister, your friend, your wife. And this is not done. It’s not fair.

There has been a lot of talk about a possible romantic connection between Raj Anadkat and Munmun Dutta, who are popular for playing Tappu and Babita Ji in the sitcom Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. Since 2021, there have been reports of a developing connection stoked by Raj’s lighthearted interactions with Munmun’s social media posts.
Munmun Dutta and Raj Anadkat engagement rumors
Rumors have been circulating within the show’s sets about their transformation from co-stars to possible life partners. Their apparent strong bond sparked conjectures that they might take their relationship to the next level. Nevertheless, these rumors also invited unwarranted criticism towards both stars. And the majority of criticism centered on how much the two appeared to have aged. There is a nine-year age gap between Raj, 27, and Munmun, 36, which elicits both positive and negative reactions.
Despite their efforts to quash the hearsay, rumors persisted, leading to suggestions of an impending engagement. Now, according to new reports, earlier this month, Munmun and Raj reportedly got engaged in a low-key ceremony in Vadodara, Gujarat. Allegedly confirmed by a source close to the duo, the reports emphasized familial endorsement of their relationship.
Raj, however, vehemently denied the engagement rumors on March 13 on his Instagram story, calling them “false & baseless.” Following suit, Munmun clarified her stance on the matter, denying any marital or pregnancy status. In a recent Instagram story, she called the claims of her engagement “fake” and said that she would marry with pride when the time came.
Munmun Dutta opened up about her engagement rumors with Raj Anadkat
Munmun Dutta clarified the confusion about her marital status on Instagram by responding to circulating rumors. She addressed the rumors head-on in a string of real Instagram stories, saying,
“Funny how FAKE news spread like wildfire and keeps coming back like a boomerang. Putting things straight again! Not Engaged. Not Married. Not Pregnant.”
Emphasizing her stance further, Munmun added,
“Also, IF and WHEN I do marry, Whether a younger man or an older one I shall do it PROUDLY. Honey! That’s my Bengali genes. Always proud and brave. Joi Maa Durga.”
Concluding her series of posts, she wrote,
“Not gonna be putting my energy to fake things anymore. Moving on to better things in life. God is kind and Life is beautiful.”
In a recent exclusive interview with India Forums, Munmun Dutta emphatically dispelled the ongoing rumors surrounding her marital status. Describing the speculation as “utterly ridiculous,” she reiterated that there is no truth to any of the circulating rumors. Munmun said she was reluctant to participate in such petty rumors, saying,
“This is utterly ridiculous! There’s not an ounce of truth to any of this. I refuse to waste my energy and attention on such fake news.”

Suzanne Bernert Finds Love Again After Death of Husband, Actor Akhil Mishra
The Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai actress Suzanne Bernert’s world crashed when her husband, actor Akhil Mishra met with an untimely death in September last year. Akhil Mishra married the famous German actress, Suzanne Bernert on February 3, 2009. Suzanne Bernert’s world revolved around her husband and his sudden death left her devastated.
The 3 Idiots actor, Akhil Mishra died at the age of 58. Multiple reports suggest that the actor fell and hurt his head when he was standing on a stool in the kitchen.
Actor Akhil Mishra’s marriage with Suzanne Bernert was his second marriage
Akhil’s wife from his first marriage was a lady named Manju whom he married in 1983. He reportedly has two kids, one daughter and one son from his first marriage. However, in 1997, his wife Manju passed away.
Akhil Mishra fell in love with famous German actress, Suzanne Bernert after the death of his first wife. They had a court marriage on February 3, 2009, and later, on September 30, 2011, they got married for the second time in a traditional Indian wedding.
The actress Suzanne Bernert recently admitted that she is moving on and has found love again
Suzanne is in a relationship with Delhi-based Arjun Hardas, who works with an NGO. Her husband’s sudden demise took a toll on Suzanne. The actress disclosed that she is slowly moving out of her grief and has found love again.
Suzanne disclosed her newfound love, in an interview with The Times of India, and also spoke on how she connected with Arjun after the death of her husband, Akhil. Suzanne said:
“After Akhil’s passing, I had stopped meeting people apart from work. I spent most of my time confined at home. However, I pushed myself to travel to Delhi to attend a friend’s housewarming party last December. While I was in Delhi, Arjun connected with me, and we met. Soon we became friends and gradually grew closer. Today, we are in sync with each other emotionally and it feels like we’ve known each other for a long time.”
Suzanne Bernert also talked about how difficult it was for her to fall in love all over again
She shared the multiple emotions she underwent and the difficulties of falling in love again. She also mentioned that Arjun understands her and doesn’t intend to replace her late husband Akhil. Suzanne stated:
“It’s intriguing to discover how multiple emotions can coexist. Arjun understands whatever I am today is because of Akhil. He acknowledges Akhil is a part of me and the intention isn’t to replace him. Akhil was my beloved one, and I want his memory as an amazing human being and actor to live on.”
Reportedly, Arjun is currently in Germany with Suzanne to meet her mother, as she underwent a complicated surgery recently. Speaking about Suzanne he said,
“We’ve just begun spending time together and getting to know each other. However, we are planning it to be a long-term relationship.”
