The world is busy asking questions and forming assumptions on a couple's divorce that they forget to give them the space they require. Divorce itself is a big statement and it is one of the hardest decision made by any couple and only brave hearts can really go for it. And television actress, Shweta Basu Prasad is one of them.

Shweta Basu Prasad had tied the knot with her longtime beau, Rohit Mittal on December 13, 2018, as per Bengali and Marwadi rituals. And just a few days before their first wedding anniversary, the actress had announced the news of her divorce with a post on Instagram. On December 9, 2019, Shweta had taken to her Instagram handle and had left everyone shocked with her separation news. She had posted a picture of the long note that can be read as "Hi everyone, Rohit Mittal and I have mutually decided to part our ways and end our marriage. After months of contemplation, we arrived at this decision a few months ago in each other's best interest, as individuals. Not every book is supposed to be read cover to cover, that doesn't mean the book is bad, or one can't read, some things are best left unfinished. Thank you Rohit for the irreplaceable memories and always inspiring me. Have a great life ahead, forever your cheerleader."

He has always been very supportive of my acting career and I am his fan, he is a wonderful filmmaker and I hope we work together someday. We had 5 years of a very loving, healthy and loyal relationship, we just decided to end the marriage and remain, friends, that’s it."
Shweta also stated that she is not hesitant of falling in love again but her current focus is her career. She shared, "Of course I am not closed to the idea of falling in love again but right now my only focus is my career and my work. Love happens organically great, if it doesn’t happen then no problem. Not looking for it." (Also Read: Arjun Kapoor Shares A Happy 'Same 2 Same' Picture With Mom, Mona Kapoor, Looks Exact Replica Of Her)
