Mumbai: Her professional life may be flourishing, but not everything is hunky-dory on the personal front. Not many know that Upasana Singh, popular as Kapil Sharma's bua on Indian television, married actor Neeraj Bharadwaj in November 2009. And now, their marriage of seven years has reached its nadir as they have been staying separately since four years.
It's just a matter of paper work before they end the relationship legally. According to sources close to the couple, "They were on talking terms even while staying separately, but there has been no communication since nine months.
Though they tried to make the marriage work, the differences were irrevocable. Their relationship has been marred by compatibility issues and different expectations from each other. Upasana didn't even invite Neeraj to her birthday party recently."
Neeraj, better known as Chirag Modi in 'Saath Nibhaana Saathiya', says, "We weren't on the same page and I couldn't meet her expectations. We decided to part ways amicably. Upasana doesn't need me and I shouldn't hold her back." So, was it her popularity that sounded the death knell for their marriage?
"We have worked together on numerous occasions. She is my senior, but her popularity or our professional lives have never posed a threat to our marriage. There are no ego clashes on that front," he says, adding, "We are not made for each other." Chirag plans to file for a divorce post Diwali.
Meanwhile, Upasana refused to comment on her personal life. She says, "It's a personal matter and I don't appreciate media intruding in that space. I wouldn't want anything on my personal life making its way into the public domain."
