It took me two and a half years," said Kamya. "I was into depression. I was undergoing counselling and there were lots of things happening," added the actress.

I could go to another's wedding and dance but I did not want to marry again and take that responsibility. Also, there was a long-distance between us. I wasn't ready. But when I told him all my reasons to not marry, he would solve it. We spoke a lot and then after I had surety and we observed it for a while and then it was all sorted out. The small glitches I had were then solved," said Kamya. Talking about marriage to their kids was a process for them as she told the portal, "Actually, it was a process, we first met each other's kids. We did not tell them about our relationship initially. We met them first, gave them gifts, spent a lot of time with them and when they were comfortable with us, we told them about our relationship. By this time, they were so comfortable with us that it didn't really surprise them."
