Pooja is a nice girl and it was great till it lasted. I wish her all the best.” Pooja revealed the real reason behind their split and stated, “Ssharad started acting weird around six months ago when he suddenly became inattentive and disinterested. However, I assumed that it was because of stress at work; I couldn’t fathom that he was planning to end the relationship.”
In an interview with the SpotboyE, Pooja candidly spoke about her relationship with Ssharad and what happened between the duo. When asked if she proposed marriage to Ssharad, she clarified, “I never asked him for marriage. In fact, he was asking me to marry him. Frankly, even I wouldn't be able to tell why he did what he did. Really, God knows what happened. But maybe like everything happens for good, I think this one too must be having its silver lining.” (Also Read: Pooja Accused Ssharad Of Cheating On Her With Another Girl, He Called Himself 'Marriage Phobic')
When probed further, since how long he had been asking her for marriage, Pooja revealed, “He has been asking me for marriage from Day 1. He even spoke to my mom about it--- and then vanished. Again, he popped up the same question after six months.” She further continued, “This was almost a repeated thing that was happening- he would ask for my hand and then after few days, say, 'No, I am not ready for marriage yet. Hamari ladaiyaan ho rahi hai'.” (Also Read: Shweta Basu Prasad Gets Engaged To Her Filmmaker Boyfriend Rohit Mittal After Dating Him For 2 Years)
When asked why she didn’t marry him as he kept asking her to do so, Pooja shared, “If someone asks you to marry him and then changes his decision at the drop of a hat, why and how would you marry him? Aaj tak he hasn't called my mom after he disappeared following the interaction with her when he asked her for my hand. Would you believe it that just a month ago, he again asked me if I could marry him.” She further added, “I retorted: "I never asked you for marriage. I never asked you even for a commitment. Why are you doing this?" And then we called it a day.” (Also Read: Gauhar Khan Finally Opens Up About Her Equation With Ex-Boyfriend Kushal Tandon)
Sharing the flashpoint moment, Pooja revealed, “He came and told me said that he is dev gan and I am rakshas gan. He said that according to his astrologer we shouldn't get married else something terrible will happen. I tried to reason with him that his astrologer has not told him the right things, but he wouldn"t listen. Woh toh Kasam TV serial ka story hai, usne mujhpe chipka diya. I even told him that what if I would prove that the dev gan and rakshas gan thing he is selling me is not true. You see, I am manushya gan and not rakshas gan. I asked him if I give him the facts, would he marry me? And you know what? He said, "No, I still can't marry you."” (Also Read: 'Meri Durga' Actors Paras Kalnawat And Urfi Javed Break Up After Dating Each Other For 9 Months)
Despite so many conflicts between them, when asked why she continued to date him, Pooja cited, “Yes, I was dating him for a long time. But now, I am paying for it na? But you know, that's also because he told me that a couple of things were not going good in his life. He told me that his father was ill, and he can't raise the topic of marriage in his family.” Pooja went on to say, “Time kept rolling by and I failed to see his intentions. I thought jab karni hogi usko shaadi mere saath toh kar lega. Overall mota mota agar relationship mein theek chal raha hai toh it is very difficult to read your partner.” (Also Read: After Taking A Break, Aditi From 'Thapki Pyaar Ki' Is Dating Her Ex-Boyfriend Rohit Purohit Again)

Lekin maine unko bola, we all have different equations with different people and he should not be judged on his previous relationship.” She added, “Today? Today, my mom is very angry.

I had been so patient with him. He has many mood-swings. I am very hurt. Our relationship was one where we were like two best friends. We shared everything with each other. I remember telling him once that if he ever didn't want to marry me, he should ask me to go out from his life without playing games.But he did just the opposite.” (Also Read: 7 Famous TV Celebrities Who Slammed Trolls For Insulting Their Partners On Social Media)

He was meeting her behind my back, He lied to me that he met only because his manager fixed up the meeting. And you know what? That girl changed her Insta handle within hours after I confronted Ssharad on her. Worse still, when I told him to show me the screenshots of his chat with that girl. You will be shocked what he replied! He said: 'Main teesri ladki ki izzat nahin uchalunga'.” (Also Read: Sharad Malhotra Finally Revealed The Real Reason Behind His Break-Up With Divyanka Tripathi)

Adding it further, Pooja said, “He is very complicated. He doesn't know what he wants to do in life. He wants everything and wants many 'yes' men around him, he doesn't want people who have an opinion. In his relationships there is only one person- and that is he himself, the other person does not exist,.It became very difficult to adjust with him anymore.”
On being asked, if the break up came as a blessing in disguise, Pooja remarked, “Now of course, I would say 'yes'.” When asked if he ever hit her, Pooja revealed, “No, never. But he used to yell at me.” Talking about if he ever forgot Divyanka, Pooja explained, “I don't know. We hardly spoke about Divyanka, maybe just once or twice.

Even after Divyanka, he dated many girls.” (Also Read: 'Ek Deewana Tha' Fame Donal Bisht Clears Dating Rumours With Director Of Her Show, Prateek Shah)
If he was faithful to her during their relationship period, Pooja answered the question, “I think he was. It was just this Insta girl which added to our problems.” When asked if they had trust issues, Pooja replied, “We never had trust issues.” Elaborating on his mood swings, Pooja said, “Sometimes very happy, sometimes very angry, sometimes didn't want to talk. I think he gave his best in our initial days, but later started taking me for granted.” (Also Read: 12 Famous TV And Bollywood Celebrity Couples Who Are Separated But Not Divorced)
She further added, “At the end of it all, I think he has found somebody (Read: Insta girl) new and they both were planning to start something together. If he has only a professional relationship with her, why didn't he show me the screenshots of his chat. He should have said it on my face that he doesn't like me anymore and wants someone new in his life.”
Has she now become a man-hater, Pooja retorted, “No. Why would I start hating men just because of one guy who is marriage-phobic and has problems? But why would every other guy be like him?” When asked if Ssharad is a man who doesn’t want to take responsibility, Pooja further went on to say, “Is he a teenager? He can't go on playing with people, again and again. He did mistakes in the past, and when still someone (Pooja) trusted him, he broke her trust too.” (Also Read: Tanishaa Mukerji's Ex Armaan Kohli Accused Of Physical Assault By Girlfriend Neeru Randhawa)
