Arijit Singh has humble beginnings before making it big in the industry. He was first seen on the reality show, Fame Gurukul in 2005, where he was considered the best singer. Arjit wasn't able to win the show, but he won in real life with his hard work and melodious voice.
Arijit Singh became an overnight sensation in 2011 with his song, Tum Hi Ho, and now, there is no looking back. While we know all about his professional accolades, not much is known about his personal life, except the fact that he got married twice. Let's read on to know more about his second wife, Koel Roy.
Arijit Singh and Koel Roy were childhood friends and neighbours. When Arijit Singh's song started working and became hit chartbusters, he thought of settling down. It is also worth mentioning that Arijit never once talked about his personal life. Arjiti and Koel both believe in living private lives, and despite being the wife of a superstar, Koel Roy is extremely humble, which shows in the way she lives her life.
Arijit Singh learnt from his mistake as he decided to marry in haste for the first time. However, for his second marriage, he wanted to take the blessings of God. Arijit tied the knot with Koel Roy in an intimate ceremony at Tripathi Temple in West Bengal on January 21, 2014. It was reported that only close friends and family attended the celebrations, and Arijit successfully kept his marriage a secret from the media.
Just like Arijit Singh, it was a second marriage for Koel Roy as well. She also had a daughter from her previous marriage. She had known Arjiti since childhood, and she was always fond of his music. The couple welcomed two sons, and they love all three of their kids equally.
