Barkha Bisht’s personal life has been under the spotlight following her recent revelations about her past marriage. The actress opened up about her divorce from Indraneil Sengupta, whom she was married to for 14 years before they parted ways in 2022. Rumors suggested Indraneil had an affair with Bengali actress Ishaa Saha, leading to the breakdown of his marriage. Barkha has now spoken about the painful experience of being cheated on.
In a conversation with Siddharth Kannan, she shared that the decision to separate was not mutual. “Getting out of the marriage is a choice,” she said, adding that Indraneil alone decided to leave. She made it clear that if it had been up to her, they would still be together. “We had a good marriage,” she reflected, expressing her pain over the end of their relationship.
For Barkha, infidelity had always been a deal-breaker. She once believed she would leave if betrayed. But when faced with it, she found it incredibly hard to walk away. Knowing about the betrayal did not make it easier. She admitted she forgave Indraneil and tried to save their marriage for two years. Despite her efforts, things did not change.
She acknowledged that Indraneil made his choice and must now justify his actions. “Maybe he can justify it now,” she remarked. “He can give you a hundred reasons why this marriage broke, but his actions are not on me,” she said. Her words reflected a sense of closure but also the lingering pain of betrayal.
The heartbreak was not just emotional but physical for her. The pain consumed her, shaking her belief in humanity. The weight of the separation was something she had never imagined experiencing.
Barkha and Indraneil’s story began on the sets of Pyaar Ke Do Naam: Ek Raadha, Ek Shyaam. Their connection grew, leading to their marriage in 2008. Three years later, they welcomed their daughter, Meira, in 2011. Their journey seemed perfect, but behind the scenes, cracks had begun to form.
Now, as she reflects on the past, Barkha stands firm in her truth. She fought for her marriage, forgave, and hoped for change. In the end, she had to accept the reality. Her words carry the weight of betrayal, loss, and resilience. Though the wounds remain, she continues to move forward, embracing a new chapter in her life.
