In a chat with The Better India, Mridula, wife of Pankaj Tripathi, shared that the actor went with her brother to look for a prospective groom for her. "He...told me...it was a good match...and I'd surely get...'bhautik sukh'," she added. "[I] asked...what that meant, and he said 'material happiness.' That's when I felt...I was losing something very precious," Mridula said.
