I also have my own identity, so being called someone's girlfriend bothered me, reveals Asha Negi

Asha Negi On Keeping Her Relationship As Private As Possible

“With my experience, I’ve learned that it’s very important to keep your life private as much as possible. When I was in a relationship, half the time, I used to be acknowledged and called somebody’s girlfriend. That used to bother me because I think I also have my own identity. I have been here in the industry for some time now,” explains Negi, who completes 12 years in the entertainment industry. Elaborating further on her chagrin, she clarifies, “It is okay. I don’t have any problem being addressed (As someone’s girlfriend). But even for work-related stories, when they (media portals) used to write it, it bothered me. I used to think maybe here it wasn’t necessary here.”

Negi has therefore decided to keep her upcoming liaison a secret. "I'll want to be a little more private for that major reason. I don't like to keep things a secret, though. A little bit of privacy in my life would be nice. I want to go with the flow, even though. I'm not a secretive person when I'm in love. Despite my best efforts, I don't think it will be kept a secret forever (laughs).

The Ludo actor admits "there is room for love" in her life, but she continues, "Now is not the perfect time." "I love the concept of falling in love, and I love falling in love," she concludes.
