Vivek Dahiya was 31 when he married Divyanka, who is 10 years senior to him, work-wise. When he met her on the sets, since he being relatively new to the industry compared to Divyanka, he had no plans of getting married anytime soon.

But when his co-star suggested Divyanka, he could not say no. Vivek was quoted saying in 2015, `I have just started my career and marriage was a far-fetched idea for me. Pankaj Bhatia, who plays Bala on `Yeh Hai Mohabatein`, first approached me with the idea. Initially, I thought he had lost his senses but I realised our goals in life were similar. It`s an arranged-cum-love marriage.` In picture: Vivek Dahiya looks handsome as he poses to get photographed
