Manav and Meher began their careers around the same time in the early 2000s. They met on the set of the TV show, Kis Desh Mein Hai Meraa Dil. Meher said they were initially strangers and used to exchange pleasantries on the set. They soon became friends and bonded well. Gradually, they began to have a meal together at restaurants during breaks. But, they didn't go alone and were often used to take some other crew members with them. However, Meher wanted to marry an honest and pure-at-heart person and found both the qualities in Manav.
Manav decided to marry Meher within the first six months of dating, and the couple tied the knot in 2009. Soon, they resumed work and continued on their journey of prosperity and happiness. In a previous interview with The Tribune, Meher shared that her life has been the same after marriage. They are still good friends and chill together. However, they also have different opinions. Manav said that Meher's great energy helps him deal with the difficult times. The couple admitted that they enjoy watching films, traveling, reading, and gossiping together.

"I have been out of work for 5 years. Meher was running the house. So she used to run the house, ghar chalta tha, I was trying my level best.

So I told her, 'I have four other things to do, and if I don't do that, what will we do? She said, 'I will do it.' So she ran the house and said, joh aapko lagta hai ab aap wahi karoge, and then Udta Punjab happened to me.”
Manav and Meher's Instagram feed also proves that they are still in love even after 15 years of marriage. We wish them happiness and love for the future.
