‘Marriage is not an essential requirement’:Aishwarya Lekshmi

'Maaman' actress Aishwarya Lekshmi opens up on marriage, says 'its not an essential requirement for a fulfilling life'

Actress Aishwarya Lekshmi shared her evolving perspective on marriage, stating it’s not essential for a fulfilling life. After observing many relationships, she believes genuine happiness and personal growth are paramount. Lekshmi emphasized that while companionship is desired, a peaceful, content relationship is key, even outside legal marriage. Her views stem from witnessing a low number of truly happy couples.

Amid the recent obsession with celebrity weddings, actress Aishwarya Lekshmi is making headlines for her refreshing and independent outlook on life. During a recent promotional interaction for her family drama ‘Maaman,’ the Kerala-born star opened up about why she no longer views marriage as a milestone for fulfillment. Having witnessed numerous relationships over her 34 years, Aishwarya confessed that few seemed to offer the genuine growth and happiness she prioritizes.

Aishwarya Lekshmi’s marriage views

Speaking with Cinema Vikatan about marriage, Aishwarya Lekshmi shared that her views differ from the traditional mindset. She said that she does not feel the need to get married. According to her, a relationship should be built on understanding, trust, and respect between two people. However, she opines that legal marriage is not the only thing that fortifies a relationship. Besides, she added that many people can survive ideally without marriage, and everything is a matter of personal decision. The ‘Maaman’ actress also noted that she is not against marriage but considers it a voluntary involvement. In the interview, she noted that some individuals might feel safe or even famous in a marital distance; someone might envision a life without companionship. “In my 34 years of life, I have witnessed numerous marriages. However, the number of couples among them who are truly and genuinely happy is quite low. It seems to me that, for many, there is a lack of personal growth within their lives. Consequently, I have no interest in marriage. In my youth, I harbored many dreams about marriage; however, as time passed, my perspective shifted, and I arrived at the conclusion that marriage is not an essential requirement for a fulfilling life,” the actress stated.”I have absolutely no intention of getting married. It is true that one desires a life partner. However, a situation where both individuals within a marital life lack peace and contentment should never arise. Therefore, I believe it is better to be in a relationship without entering into marriage,” the actress further revealed,
