When
Did
Manish
Naggdev
Met
Malika
Juneja?
Manish
told
the
leading
daily
that
he
first
met
Malika
in
August
last
year,
through
some
common
friends
and
gradually,
his
mother
grew
fond
of
her.
He
added
that
his
mother
told
him
that
Malika
would
make
a
great
life
partner.
Engagement
&
Wedding
Will
Be
Held
After
The
Pandemic
He
added
that
with
time,
he
too
realised
that
she
was
extremely
loving
and
caring
and
told
his
mother
to
talk
to
her
family.
Fortunately,
they
too
were
fond
of
him.
He
added
that
they
started
dating
in
January,
and
engagement
and
wedding
will
be
held
after
the
pandemic.
The
actor
calls
it
a
love-cum-arranged
marriage.
What
He
Likes
About
Malika?
As
to
what
he
likes
about
her,
Manish
told
TOI,
"What
I
admire
about
Malika
is
that
she
is
driven
about
her
work,
but
is
homely
at
the
same
time.
She
knows
how
to
balance
her
personal
and
professional
lives.
Also,
she
quit
acting
years
ago
after
a
brief
stint.
I
have
nothing
against
anyone,
but
owing
to
my
past
experiences,
I
was
very
clear
about
not
marrying
anyone
from
the
industry."
Why
Manish
Doesn’t
Want
To
Share
Roka
Pictures
On
Social
Media?
Although
he
would
have
loved
to
share
roka
pictures
on
social
media,
he
refrained
from
doing
so
because
of
his
past.
He
said
that
from
past
four-five
years
his
personal
life
has
overshadowed
his
work,
and
so
he
wants
to
keep
them
separate
from
now
on.
Manish’s
Previous
Relationship
It
has
to
be
recalled
that
Manish
was
in
relationship
with
ex-Bigg
Boss
contestant
Srishty
Rode
and
the
duo
was
also
engaged,
but
the
actress
ended
her
four-year-long
relationship
with
Manish
in
2018,
after
her
Bigg
Boss
stint.
When
asked
if
this
made
him
disillusioned
about
love,
Manish
replied,
"Look,
I
have
realised
that
no
one
loves
anybody
unconditionally.
Today,
love,
for
me,
means
respecting
and
valuing
the
person
in
your
life.
Obviously,
I
was
bitter
in
the
beginning,
as
I
hadn't
got
closure.
I
would
get
anxiety
and
panic
attacks,
and
had
trouble
sleeping.
Unable
to
take
it
anymore,
I
finally
bared
my
heart
and
soul
on
social
media.
That
helped
get
a
huge
weight
lifted
off
my
chest."
