    In a candid interview discussing his marriage with Tanushree, Vineet expressed that he hardly regarded it as a marriage since it lasted for less than a year. According to him, the union lacked love and bonding, describing it as a decision made in haste that went against the wishes of everyone. Furthermore, he added,

    I am grateful that I realised it wouldn’t work in a short time. I don’t talk about it because I don’t count it at all, and hence, it wasn’t difficult to move on from it. I don’t regret it because it was destined to happen.”

    He also compared his relationship with Tanushree to that of Apeksha and said,

    After that, this is the first time I am deeply in love with someone, and that’s Apeksha. This relationship hasn’t been hasty and has grown stronger with time. It’s a match made in heaven. We share similar likes, dislikes, and temperaments.”
