Tamannaah Bhatia says 'marriage is not a party' days after confirming relationship with Vijay Varma

Actor Tamannaah Bhatia, who recently confirmed her relationship with 'Lust Stories 2' co-star Vijay Varma, talked about her marriage plans in a recent interview.

Speaking with India Today, the actor shared if she feels pressured to tie the knot.

Tamannaah said that marriage is a big responsibility and it's not a party. She said marriage comes with a lot of work and one should not tie the knot just because others are doing it.

She said, ‘I feel you should get married when you want to get married. Marriage is a big responsibility. It's not a party. It takes a lot of work, and so is having a plant, having a dog, or having kids. So when you are ready for a responsibility like that which is important then you do it. Not because time or sab kar rahe hain toh karlo (everyone is doing it so you should too).’
She revealed that she thought that she would have finished work and gotten married and had kids by the age of 30.

‘When I started working years back it was like an actress's career span was only for 8-10 years. So I did the math and was like by the age of 30 I would have finished working, married, and would have two kids. I had not planned post-30. So, when I actually became 30 years old, I realised that I am just born, it was like a purna janam (re-birth), I felt like a brand new baby. Today we do things out of choice and it makes us feel a certain way and we have that choice. The generation before would always think ‘yeh time ho gaya to yeh kar lo (It’s time so get married)' etc. Apart from scientifically a biological block, there is nothing really else going against you as a woman. So suddenly I have realized that my ideas then were so people friendly, they weren't my ideas. I only discovered my ideas when I turned 30,’ the actor added.

Tamannaah's latest release ‘Jee Karda’ released on June 15. She will be next seen in Netflix's Lust ‘Stories 2’.
