Konkona Sen Sharma: Relationships Are Overrated; We Should Stop Changing Our Surnames After Marriage
“Relationships are overrated. It would be nice to distribute work between partners. Also, your emotional reservoir does not have to be only your husband or wife."
It's
known
to
all
that
actress
Konkana
Sen
Sharma
was
married
to
actor
Ranvir
Shorey
but
soon
they
ended
up
getting
divorced.
However,
even
after
parting
ways,
the
duo
shares
cordial
relatiosnhip.
In
her
conversation
with
Deccan
Chronicle,
Konkona
Sen
Sharma
talks
about
relationships
and
says,
"Relationships
are
overrated.
It
would
be
nice
to
distribute
work
between
partners.
Also,
your
emotional
reservoir
does
not
have
to
be
only
your
husband
or
wife.
Eventually,
it
becomes
very
boring
and
repetitive."
She
further
adds,
"It's
nice
to
have
different
people
in
your
life,
be
it
your
mother,
your
husband
or
friend.
But
sometimes,
relationships
are
meant
to
last
only
for
some
time.
It's
better
to
live
separately
rather
than
not
live
happily
together.
Domesticity
really
kills
romance!
Being
financially
independent
as
well
as
having
a
house
of
your
own
is
of
utmost
importance
for
a
woman."
Konkona
also
added
that
she
feels
that
women
should
stop
changing
their
names
after
marriage.
"We
should
stop
changing
our
surnames
after
marriage.
Just
because
we
have
always
done
it,
we
don't
have
to
accept
it
forever.
If
we
are
taking
our
husband's
name,
we
are
taking
it
as
our
last
name.
Our
maiden
last
name
is
becoming
our
middle
name.
Why
go
through
the
hassle
of
changing
our
names,
passports...
And
who
takes
the
middle
name
seriously?
And
what
names
are
the
children
getting?"
