Shweta Basu Prasad on her separation from Rohit Mittal: It felt simply like a break-up

Actress Shweta Basu Prasad separated from her husband Rohit Mittal in December 2019; a few months after their marriage in 2018. They dated for four years before they got engaged in 2017. In a recent interview, she spoke about her divorce. She said that it was not ‘nasty’. Shweta and Rohit separated after 6-8 months and she felt it like a ‘break-up’.

Shweta told Times of India, “It happened, but then I see couples who have been together for 10 years or more going separate ways. The fact that Rohit and I separated after only 6-8 months made it feel simply like a break-up.”

When asked how she handled herself after separation, she said that she got support from her family and she became her own friend and is fine now. “Of course, I was sad; nobody parties when you split up with anybody, but I have an amazing family around me. Besides, I think one is his own friend or enemy in such situations; I went on to become my own friend and I am fine now,” she said.

Even after their divorce, Shweta and Rohit Mittal share a cordial bond with each other.
