Mika Singh: My relationship with Akanksha Puri did not work out

INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Mika chose his friend, actress Akanksha Puri, as his partner on the show in the finale
But there has been no news of the two getting engaged or even dating
All my friends, too, were pressurising me
I liked the idea of the swayamvar and hence, took up the show
However, after choosing Akanksha as my companion, I realised that we were not meant to be with each other
I am a singer, musician and she is an actress
I keep travelling across the world for my concerts, while she is stationed at one place because of her projects
I figured that if she was also a singer, we could have collaborated and travelled together, but since she is an actor and her work is
partner I don't want to regret later after taking a hasty step
So, it is important that I take my time."Akanksha in an earlier interview had said, "Mika and I had been friends but we never romanced each
other
One has to think a lot before taking the plunge
We have been friends for a long time."
