00:00No, I won't take anyone's name because I'm very grateful to all the women who have come to my life, who have been in my life.
00:08Right.
00:09If there is a commitment going on in a couple of places, or if someone is understanding that there is a commitment,
00:15and at one place they are very committed, then there is a lot of difficulty for them as well.
00:21And we have made mistakes, it's not that we haven't made mistakes.
00:24Naturally, someone who is coming from Patna, who is coming from so far for the first time,
00:30who has never seen such a bright moon,
00:33when there is so much courage or name,
00:39then there is a possibility of being misled many times.
00:55You had once told me that in your life, you were, you know,
01:03you had your feet in two different boats at the same time.
01:08Two different boats? We were in the same boat.
01:13And you had also told me that people think that a man who has got two women in his life
01:22is a very lucky man, he is such a fortunate man, but he is not so fortunate, he has problems as well.
01:30So, what do you feel about that phase of your life, where there was Reena and Promi in your life?
01:38No, I will not take anyone's name because I'm very grateful to all the women who have come to my life,
01:45who have been in my life.
01:46Right.
01:47I'm very grateful to all of them because I have learnt a lot from them.
01:51I don't have any rebellion against anyone in my life,
01:56whether it is a lady, a girl, a friend or a friend.
02:00I don't have any bad thoughts.
02:08I'm very grateful to all of them.
02:11I have learnt a lot from them as well in life.
02:14And I have made mistakes, it's not that I haven't made mistakes.
02:18Naturally, I'm coming from Patna, I'm coming from such a far place for the first time.
02:23I have never seen such a big crowd.
02:26Suddenly, seeing such a big crowd and so much stardom,
02:32I didn't know how to live with it and how to tolerate a lot of things.
02:39And how to fix the price, how to increase the price, how to increase the price.
02:44When a person who does all this, when his courage or his name becomes so much,
02:53then there is a possibility of getting misled many times.
02:58Correct.
02:59And because it was not so tough at that time and there was no guardian factor here.
03:06When Prami came in our life, when Poonam came,
03:11then things started to change and we started to be careful.
03:14So, I'm very grateful to them.
03:17But at the same time, I can't take anyone's name.
03:24Not at all.
03:25Sorry.
03:26I took it.
03:27You took it, I won't take anyone's name.
03:29But I will definitely say that I have no complaints with anyone.
03:32On the contrary, I'm very grateful to everyone.
03:35Yes.
03:36I have got a lot of love from them, I have got a lot to learn,
03:39I have got a lot to handle, I have got a lot to handle.
03:41I have got to decorate my life with them.
03:44And I have no complaints against anyone.
03:48I hold them in very high esteem.
03:51And what you say about this, if a person is good,
03:58if he is good,
04:00then what you say,
04:03I stressed it because he is good,
04:06that if he has a commitment at two or three places,
04:09or if he is understanding that there is a commitment,
04:12and if he is very committed at one place,
04:15then there is a lot of problem for him too.
04:18His peace, tranquility, blood pressure,
04:21it affects everyone a lot.
04:24Because when you go to someone,
04:27when you stay with them,
04:29you miss that person,
04:31who is waiting for you at home.
04:33And when you stay at home,
04:35you feel, why have you kept him like a toy?
04:39What will happen to him? How can I go there?
04:42Until there is no such understanding, it's a different matter.
04:45So guilt?
04:46Yes, there is a lot of guilt.
04:48A lot of it.
04:50It happens to good people.
04:53And I am a younger brother,
04:56I am from Bihari Bahu, Patna,
04:59I came from there,
05:01slowly I became a star,
05:03slowly my popularity increased,
05:05people started loving me,
05:07people started believing in me,
05:09people started loving me,
05:11it kept increasing,
05:13but my heart remained the same,
05:15the values that I had,
05:17the blessings of my mother,
05:19the background that I had,
05:21the values that I had,
05:23I used to worry a lot about them.
05:26So if I say it in short,
05:29it's not just the girls,
05:31who are being treated unjustly,
05:33or the girls,
05:35it's the men,
05:37who are being treated unjustly.
05:39Whether it's a man or a woman,
05:41it's the men who are being treated unjustly.
05:43A lot of injustice.
05:45If you want to get rid of it,
05:47you can't get rid of it.
05:50So what did you learn from it?
05:53What I said in the beginning,
05:55be a one woman man at a time.
05:57Be a one woman man at a time.
06:01Sonu ji,
06:03what would you say is the reason
06:05for such a successful marriage?
06:07Because,
06:09there must have been some adjustments
06:11on both sides, right?
06:13Yes.
06:15First of all,
06:17I would say,
06:19with a very good quality,
06:21and with a very good
06:23sense of dedication,
06:25which is called
06:27a commitment for the family,
06:29that quality
06:31was very good.
06:33It wasn't like,
06:35I'm not complaining about anyone,
06:37but it wasn't like,
06:39going to a kitty party at night,
06:41or going to a club,
06:43or having a champagne party,
06:45I'm not complaining about anyone.
06:47Those who do it, they do it.
06:49But it wasn't like that.
06:51You mean, in promis?
06:53Yes.
06:55Promis means,
06:57the quality was very good.
06:59Yes.
07:01Family first.
07:03Family first.
07:05Like,
07:07in America,
07:09Trump says,
07:11nation first.
07:13Family first.
07:15And in this matter,
07:17many times,
07:19there were many ups and downs.
07:21Many people said,
07:23how to tolerate,
07:25and so on.
07:27They used to say,
07:29for ups and downs,
07:31a person should take a break.
07:33It took so much time to make it.
07:35And to take a break,
07:37should an excuse be enough?
07:39We will do it, it will be fine.
07:41Patience,
07:43commitment,
07:45patience,
07:47and a very beautiful,
07:49people don't believe it,
07:51but a very beautiful person.
07:53A very beautiful nature.
07:55Later, when I completed my studies,
07:57they felt that
07:59I should do it.
08:01After coming here,
08:03there was a dating and courtship period.
08:05At that time, I did everything.
08:07I did honours in English.
08:09After doing all this,
08:11the demand of a family,
08:13or what we felt,
08:15that we will be able to strengthen
08:17the family,
08:19the family.
08:21And after having children,
08:23I took care of myself,
08:25but more than that, I took care of the family.
08:27I took care of the children.
08:29If someone praises me
08:31in everything,
08:33then I give all the credit to my wife.
