Recently, in an interview with The Times of India, Archana talked about her seven-year-old age gap. She shared that they were so much in love that they had never thought about the age gap. Archana further shared that they were families were initially reserved and had told her to think twice before getting married. She said:
"Before getting married to Parmeet in 1992, we were in a relationship for four years and although we discussed the age gap, we never felt that we should not be with each other because of that. When we finally took the plunge, we realised that we were too much in love with each other to think of the age gap. Though our families had reservations and my family even told me to think twice about getting married to someone younger, I never had any doubt in my mind. And today, after 30 years and two sons, we are still a couple who have faced the ups and downs of life together without the age factor ever coming in focus."
Archana further revealed that they often make fun of how her career had flew after her marriage, while Parmeet had its own share of struggles. She said:
"Parmeet and I would always laugh about how our life story would be like the film Abhimaan, where the wife’s career takes off in a bigger way than her husband’s. However, I feel that we should never get into gender stereotypes. What if the man’s career would have been on an upward swing while the woman would still be struggling? Just because a woman is defined as a homemaker, would nobody question her or say that she can’t do anything big in life? Society should not stereotype or stick to old gender roles."
