Archana Puran Singh Talks About 7-Year Age Gap With Husband Parmeet And Having Bigger Career Than Him: ‘Society Should Not Stereotype’
In a recent interview, Archana Puran Singh speaks about her age gap with her husband Parmeet Sethi and their acting careers
Archana Puran Singh and her actor husband Parmeet Sethi’s love story has indeed proved that age is just a number when it comes to love. In a recent interview, the actress opened up about her seven-year age gap with Parmeet and revealed that the couple never felt that they should not be with each other because of their age difference. Archana admitted that her family asked her to think twice before getting married to someone younger, but she never had any doubt.
She also spoke about their acting careers and stated she and Parmeet always laugh, thinking about how their life story would be like the film Abhimaan, where the wife’s career takes off in a bigger way than her husband’s. Speaking to Etimes TV, Archana said, “Before getting married to Parmeet in 1992, we were in a relationship for four years and although we discussed the age gap, we never felt that we should not be with each other because of that. When we finally took the plunge, we realised that we were too much in love with each other to think of the age gap. Though our families had reservations and my family even told me to think twice about getting married to someone younger, I never had any doubt in my mind. And today, after 30 years and two sons, we are still a couple who have faced the ups and downs of life together without the age factor ever coming in focus.” ALSO READ: Archana Puran Singh Shares A Secret About Her Marriage With Parmeet Sethi; Makes An Unexpected Revelation
Kapil Sharma’s show judge went on to point out that one should not get into gender stereotypes.
“What if the man’s career would have been on an upward swing while the woman would still be struggling? Just because a woman is defined as a homemaker, would nobody question her or say that she can’t do anything big in life? Society should not stereotype or stick to old gender roles,” Archana explained.
Meanwhile, Archana Puran Singh is currently seen as a judge on the popular show The Kapil Sharma’s show. However, the show will take a break in June. She will next be seen as a judge on India’s Laughter Champion along with Shekhar Suman.
