Rasika Dugal is one of India's most popular OTT stars, courtesy of her tremendous work in the critically acclaimed web series, Mirzapur. The 39-year-old actress played the character of 'Beena Tripathi' in the ace web series, and it brought her immense popularity and success. Apart from Mirzapur, Rasika Dugal has also appeared in a series of renowned films and television shows like No Smoking, Bombay Talkies, Lust Stories, Manto, Lootcase, Powder, Made In Heaven, Delhi Crime, A Suitable Boy, OK Computer, and many more.
Despite being such a big OTT star, Rasika Dugal rarely talks about her personal life. For the uninitiated, she is married to an actor named Mukul Chadda, who has worked in a series of Bollywood films and web shows. Some of his most recognised works include Satyagraha, Gurgaon, Sherni, The Office, Sunflower, and Big Girls Don't Cry. Rasika Duggal and Mukul Chadda reportedly got married back in 2010, and they're leading a happy marriage.
In a recent interview with Bollywood Bubble, Rasika Dugal talked about her husband, Mukul Chadda and opened up about their love story. Recalling her first meeting with Mukul, Rasika revealed that she met him at a theatre workshop on a Sunday after a tiring Saturday night. The actress also added that Kalki Koechlin and Richa Chadha were at the same theatre workshop.
During the break, Rasika Dugal and Mukul Chadda interacted by chance and discovered that they had a lot of mutual friends. After interacting for some time, they exchanged numbers and started dating. After dating each other for the next three years, Rasika and Mukul exchanged wedding vows in 2010 and have been married for 14 years now. The couple has no kids at the moment, and none of them have discussed the prospects of embracing parenthood in their respective interviews.
In the same interview, Rasika Dugal also talked about her other relationship, which is much longer than the one she has with her husband, Mukul Chadda. Opening about the same, she revealed that she is a Shah Rukh Khan fangirl and has been in a long-distance relationship with the Bollywood superstar. The actress hilariously revealed that she fell in love with SRK, even while watching his negative characters in Darr and Baazigar. Sharing how she deeply loves Shah Rukh, Rasika admitted that she loves his every single work and not just the romantic roles. She said:

"There's one very long long-distance relationship and one long but short-distance relationship. I have never met Shah Rukh Khan. Whatever I've seen of him, I fell in love with him just by watching. I fell in love watching Darr, I fell in love watching Baazigar. It wasn't just about the romantic hero; anything works as long as it's SRK. My unadulterated, unconditional love is always there. Maybe for him, I'll abandon my shyness one day. Maybe."
On the work front, Rasika Dugal was last seen in the web series, Shekhar Home.
