Renuka Shahane Says Ashutosh Rana Married Her On His Spiritual Guru's Advice, 'My Mom Was Shocked..'

Renuka Shahane and Ashutosh Rana were among the most popular star couples in the 90s. The actors who are known for their grounded personalities and strong acting performances have been together for more than two decades. From talking to each other on call for months to overcoming their hesitations, the duo came a long way to tie the knot in 2001. After that, their strong bond continues to give a couple of goals in the industry. Once in a while, the actors often share some unknown insights about their love story, and recently, the actress shared one such anecdote about how Ashutosh tied the knot with her on his spiritual guru's advice. 

Renuka Shahane says Ashutosh Rana's guru chose her as his bahu

Renuka Shahane recently made an appearance on Gauahar Khan's podcast show, MaaNoranjan. During the conversation, she opened up about her two-decade-long marriage and shared that the incredible journey had a unique beginning. Unlike everyone's perception that they married after dating for three years, her husband, Ashutosh Rana had decided to propose to her on his spiritual guru's advice. She gave more context to the incident and revealed that they both were at the peak of their careers when they decided to date, so marriage was a big step. Consequently, the spiritual angle gave them the much-required push. Sharing more details about the situation, Renuka said:

"Marriage is quite a scary proposition. Being in the public eye and then two of us getting married at the peak of our careers can be difficult. One feels that nothing should go wrong, not just in the relationship, but even when you are into the marriage, you don't want anything bad to happen."

She explained that her husband, Ashutosh's guru, was unaware that she was dating him. Consequently, when the latter mentioned to the actor that he had selected a 'bahu' for him, he was scared. However, he later found out that his spiritual guru chose her. But amid all this, Renuka's mother was shocked that Ashutosh was taking the big decision over his guru's advice. Recalling the situation, the actress said:

"He was scared. Who is this person? He didn't know that guruji was talking about me only. Guruji said that she is a good girl you should ask for her hand. Rana ji was clueless, but he actually did tell this to my mother. My mom was very shocked. She said, ‘Guruji ne bataaya islie aap karahe hain ya aapko sach mein karni hai.”

Renuka Shahane shares her reason for marrying Ashutosh Rana 

Ashutosh Rana proposed to Renuka Shahane on his spiritual guru's advice. But the actress, who had already dealt with a broken marriage, had another reason to say "yes." She explained that she was already in love with him and tied the knot because she wanted to have kids. Moreover, the idea of providing a stable family to her kids by marrying Ashutosh, who himself was a family-oriented person, made her happy. Renuka believed he would be a good father for their kids and went ahead with the proposal.
