Mukesh Khanna, the actor best known for the television series “Shaktimaan,” said he is open to getting married at age 67 [1].
Khanna's comments draw attention to the personal lives of public figures in India and the cultural value placed on the institution of marriage regardless of age. As a prominent figure in Indian television history, his openness about his relationship status and future intentions generates significant public interest.
During a media appearance in early May, the actor discussed his perspective on partnership and destiny [3]. Khanna said he is thinking about marrying at 67 [1]. He said that he holds a deep belief in the institution of marriage [2].
Despite his willingness to wed, Khanna noted that he does not actively seek a partner through conventional means. He said that marriage happens when it is written in one's destiny [3]. This philosophical approach suggests that he is waiting for a partner to emerge naturally rather than pursuing a calculated search.
Khanna also said that he has never had girlfriends in the past [3]. This admission provides a rare glimpse into the private history of the actor, who has spent decades in the public eye as a symbol of strength and morality through his most famous role.
He said a suitable partner will arrive only when destiny decides [2]. By framing the possibility of marriage as a matter of fate, Khanna avoids setting a specific timeline while remaining open to the possibility of a lifelong companion.
“I am thinking about getting married at the age of 67.”
Khanna's statements reflect a blend of traditional Indian values regarding destiny and a modern openness to late-life companionship. By publicly discussing his lack of past romantic relationships and his current openness to marriage, he challenges the typical celebrity narrative of curated romance, instead framing his personal life as a journey guided by fate.
