Bhagyashree was badly scolded by her father-in-law for saying ‘miss you’ to her husband

Bhagyashree and Himalaya Dassani were high-school sweethearts and were head-over-heels in love with each other. After their marriage, he went to Chennai to set up his business. Bhagyashree was pregnant at that time and missed Himalaya’s presence. In an interview with Hauterrfly, Bhagyashree revealed since there were no phones at that time, her husband called the landline to talk to her.

Hearing Himalya’s voice, Bhagyashree couldn’t control her emotions and told him that she was missing him. Her father-in-law, who was sitting nearby in the same living room, didn’t like what she said to her husband and scolded her. Narrating the same, Bhagyashree revealed:

“Jaise maine phone Rakha mere father-in-law ne data mujhe. Bole wo wahaan pe kya khelne ke liye gaya hai? Missing you bologe to waapis phir bhaag ke aane ki ichcha hogi. Maine socha hai ram, I love you nahi bol sakte, missing you nahi bol sakte. Fir karoon kya? So after that day, I used to write him a letter every day.”

Bhagyashree’s parents were against her marriage to Himalaya Dassani

Bhagyashree belongs to a royal Marathi family. She is from Patwardhan, the royal Marathi family of Sangli, and her father is the Raja of Sangli. Bhagyashree was from a conservative family and was brought up in a very strict environment. She and Himalya were in the same school and were madly-in-love with one another.

But when her parents got to know about her affair, they were strictly against it as they thought she was too young to decide what was right for her. Bhagyashree broke up with Himalaya for a brief period for the sake of her family. Soon, Himalaya went to the US for higher studies, and she signed up for her debut film, Maine Pyaar Kiya.

When Himalaya came back from the States, she again tried to convince her parents and told them she could not live without Himalaya, but they paid no heed to it. They were still very adamant, and Bhagyashree realised that she had no other choice than eloping with Himalaya. In an interview with Humans of Bombay, Bhagyashree recalled eloping with Himalaya and said:

“I called him up after this conversation and asked him, ‘are you sure of yourself, of us? This is the deciding day…either I’d be in his life forever or not at all.’ I said, ‘I’m leaving my house now, if you love me come and pick me up’ and within 15 minutes he was under my house. We had a small ceremony at a temple — his parents, Salman, Sooraj ji, a few of our friends attended and that’s how we go married.”
