In a very real face to face reality, television actress Shruthi Shanmugapriya has had a very strong, emotional and thoughtful view on remarriage because the decision about remarriage is very personal and should never be influenced by a social reality.

"It's a Personal Choice"

Shruthi said her parents, in-laws and close well-wishers have supported her and encouraged her to move forward in life.

"My parents, in-laws and well-wishers are all encouraging me to have a second marriage. A person’s choice on whether to live alone or remarry is their own."

The loss of a life partner means individual choices must be respected, she stated.

Remembering Her Late Husband Arun

And she also wrote a very emotional note to her late husband, Arun, that his memory will remain so important in her life;

The truth is that, in the future, if I meet someone I like and get married again, I will always believe that my late husband, Arun, was the guardian angel who sent that person into my life.

Her emotional words were touched by so many fans and her gratitude and hope were both she and Arun.
