Aruna Irani got married to Kuku Kohli at the age of 40. The actress kept her wedding a secret because he was already married. In an interview, Irani had said that she got the courage to tell the world she's married to him, only after his first wife passed away.
Aruna had revealed that earlier they hated each other but love eventually bloomed.While it's usually the woman who is blamed for breaking a marriage, Aruna had clarified that it's first a man's responsibility to keep his wife happy. She had said during a chat with ANI, "When you get married to a married man, it becomes difficult. She passed away, tab maine himmat se baat bhi karti hu.' My affair wit Kuku Kohli was not to hurt anyone or snatch anyone."S
he added, "Ye jo wives hoti hain, voh hamesha dusri aurat ko gaali deti hain. See, I am not responsible to keep you happy, your husband is responsible, hold him first. Tell him ‘why did you do this?’ Maine koi ghar todne ke liye nahi affair kiya. But something happens, I don’t know what, only a man would know or a woman would know as to why a third person enters. Maine bhi aaj tak nahi batayaa, now I'm taking for the first time.
Unki do betiyan hai. I didn't want to hurt anyone. People are very nasty. It's difficult for them to answer.”Irani added that she never spoke about him earlier. Even when journalists used to ask her, she would refrain from the topic. She also took example of Hema Malini marrying Dharmendra and said, "Mujhe yakeen hai, ke jaise Hema ji ne Dharam ji se shadi ki, she didn't want to break any family. Aadmi bhi kam nahi hote na. He has the responsibility to go home and answer his wife." She also spoke about why she never had any children with Kuku. She said, "I got married to...married man, I'm suffering...let the pain be with me only. But if my child asks, 'Where's papa?' what do I say? He also get stuck. If something happens to...child in...middle of...night, I can't call him...that's why I never wanted...child. I thought ke woh dukh main apne bacche ko nahi dungi.”In a recent interview with Lehren, Aruna opened up on how sometimes, one ends up going to a path where there's no looking back.
She said, "Kabhi kabhi aap woh galli mein ghus jaate ho. Kuch samajh nahi aata. One way galli hoti hai. Aap hatna bhi chaaho toh hat nahi sakte. Insaan kabhi akela hota hai aur kisise kuch mann lag jaata hai na toh you get carried away. Aaj aapko khushi milti hai na toh aap bhul jaate ho ke kal kaisa dukh hoga.
(Sometimes you just don't understand why and how you enter a lane and there's no turning back. It's a one way lane. When a person is all all alone and gets some love from someone, or feels good with someone, they think about the happiness of that moment, without realising the pain they will get next day)."She also revealed that she tried to get out of the relationship, move on and get married to someone else. "Maine try ki ke doosri jagah shadi karlu but he didn't let me," she said
