Television director Rohit Raj Goyal opened up about his wife and actress Deepika Singh during a recent appearance on a reality show, speaking candidly about their family and her unwavering support. While discussing their journey on the show 'Pati Patni Aur Panga', Rohit grew visibly emotional as he recalled how Deepika embraced not just him, but his entire family with utmost care and affection.
A Bold Decision at the Peak of Her Career
On the show, Rohit shared that there was a time when Deepika decided to marry him while she was at the absolute peak of her professional career. Back then, she was a massively popular television actress, yet she chose to commit to a person living in a traditional joint family. Calling himself an ardent admirer of hers, Rohit noted that making such a monumental choice requires immense love and dedication, especially when adapting to a large household involving his mother, father, brother, and sister-in-law.
Overcoming Society's Harsh Taunts
Reflecting on the past, Rohit revealed the hurtful remarks people in society used to pass about his family. He mentioned that locals would cynically claim his children would never get married and would eventually be forced to beg on the streets. However, everything changed for the better after Deepika entered their lives. Her presence and graceful acceptance of his family completely shifted public perception and silenced the negativity that once surrounded them.
A Special Bond With His Father
Rohit drew a touching comparison while talking about the bond between his father and Deepika. Highlighting the sensitivity required, he likened caring for his father to looking after a special child, noting that only Deepika possessed the patience and love to engage with him and look after his daily needs. Recalling the skeptics who doubted their future, Rohit pointed out that on the day of their wedding, a massive gathering turned out to witness the celebration, attributing that positive turning point entirely to Deepika's grace.
Deepika's Reaction to the Emotional Confession
Responding to her husband's heartfelt revelations, Deepika shared her surprise at his words. She admitted that she never expected him to express his innermost feelings so openly in front of everyone, leaving her momentarily speechless because she had no prior inkling of it. She emphasized that the respect and honor of her husband's family mean the world to her. Furthermore, she expressed immense pride in how Rohit has achieved everything in life through his own relentless hard work and patience, adding that her mother-in-law's blessings played a monumental role in their journey.
A Romance Born on the Sets
The love story of Rohit and Deepika blossomed on the sets of the popular television show 'Diya Aur Baati Hum'. In this widely watched series, Deepika famously portrayed the iconic lead character Sandhya Rathi, while Rohit worked behind the scenes as the director. What began as a professional working relationship gradually transformed into romance, culminating in their wedding in Mumbai on May 2, 2014. Three years later, the couple welcomed their son Soham into the world in May 2017.
