"Don't jump into anything too soon and don't jump out of it too soon. Because you got to give it time and we did not. Once you kind of fall in love, you think everything should be hunky-dory but living together is tough and you don't know what things will be like. We knew each other only for three months really."

Further going into the conversation, the actor shared that the night they had decided to part their ways was the night of his debut film, China Gate. He added that most of the portions he had shot for the movie didn't make it to the film. He said:

"That’s a night I can never forget in my life. It was a double whammy for me. In my personal life, I felt like I had failed because I was not keen on the divorce. I thought we could have given it more time because we were just married for six months, so you kind of interpret that as a failure on your part."
