Mouni Roy and Suraj Nambiar were together for nearly three years before getting married in Goa in January 2022. Their wedding became widely talked about for blending both Bengali and Malayali traditions, reflecting their different cultural backgrounds. Over the years, the couple frequently shared affectionate moments online and were often seen travelling together, despite living between Mumbai and Dubai because of their professional commitments. Fans also pointed out that while Mouni still has several wedding and couple photographs visible on her Instagram profile, Suraj’s account currently does not feature photos with her. This has led to growing online chatter around a possible separation or divorce.
Old interview
Now, amid rumours of trouble in their marriage, an old Valentine’s Day interview with Bombay Times has started gaining attention again. In the interview, Mouni had opened up about how relationships are not always built on certainty in the beginning. Her exact words were, "At the beginning of a relationship, you will never know if the person is right for you." She spoke about how people rarely know immediately whether someone is truly the right partner for them. According to her, relationships grow stronger through consistent love, respect, giving each other personal space, and avoiding unnecessary expectations.She also reflected on how treating a relationship with care every day helps it flourish naturally over time. Her comments are now being widely shared online, especially because fans feel those words carry a different emotional weight in light of the current speculation.
Suraj Nambiar's answer
Suraj Nambiar had also shared his perspective on relationships during the same conversation. He explained that no individual can possess every quality one may desire in a partner. Instead, he believed people should focus on identifying the few qualities that matter most deeply to them and prioritise those while building a relationship.
