From ‘Sawan Mein Lag Gayi Aag’ to ‘Gandi Baat’, Mika Singh songs are among the top favourite shaadi songs. But after all these years of being the ‘suron ka sartaaj’, the ‘Bhutni Ke’ singer is often asked, ‘tussi kab ghodi chadoge?’

In the past two decades, Mika has received several rishtas and has also refused at least 150 marriage proposals. Recently, he revealed how he never had the courage to introduce his girlfriends to his family, especially to his big brother Daler Mehendi.
“I was not ready earlier, I have said no to at least 100-150 rishtas in last 20 years, and my work was really important to me,” Times Of India quoted him saying.
He went on to say that people might think his lifestyle is the reason why he doesn’t want to tie the knot, but that’s not the case.
“People would think that I like to party and hang out with girls and that is my reason for not getting married but that was never the case. Meri family mein aaj tak meri itni himmat nahi hui ki main Daler paaji ko apni koi girlfriend dikhaun, humare mein yeh system nahi hai. Woh respect rehti hai. Finally, when this offer came Daler paaji said, ‘Kar le, kya pata koi mil jaye. Tu waise toh humari baat nahi maan raha.”

Like us, his family has also asked him, ‘koi hai toh bata de’.
“Mere ghar wale auntiyon wali baatein karte rehte hain. They say, ‘Koi hai toh bata de, main uske ghar pe baat kar lungi.’ Main bolta hoon koi nahi hai, toh kehte hain, ‘Ho hi nahi sakta, sadda aina sona munda hai.’”
“They are happy that finally, I have taken the first step. I don’t have a phobia or an issue with meeting people, mujhe bas saamne waale ke saath baith kar mana karna achha nahi lagta. I think what will her parents think and that’s why I have not met a girl for marriage in 20 years,” he added.

But now, at the age of 44, he thinks he is ready to step into this new phase of life. “Better hai ya toh main single rahoon, ya ab shaadi kar loon.”
Revealing about the kind of girl that he is looking for, Mika adds, “We should have an understanding. Girls know what they want and the kind of understanding they want, so I want someone like that.”
Speaking about his public image, he says that he doesn’t want to change it.
“Jo main hoon, mujhe pasand hai. I have had a very challenging life. I am a bad boy with a good heart and that’s why I have a huge fan following. I am here because of my fans. Artists announce their shows on social media, I don’t even do that. I have enough shows, songs, and fans just like Salman Bhai.”

Addressing his past relationships, he said, “I had a girlfriend in 2001 and she was from Delhi so her parents were like, ‘Bollywood aisa hi hota hai, leave it’.”
“I had another girlfriend during my struggling period and I told her that I am going to be an upcoming star, uske parents ne bola jab banega star tab dekhenge toh 2- 3 meri girlfriends thi and teeno ki shaadi maine attend kari because meri life mein yeh important tha ki uske parents kya chahte hain. I am not selfish, I don’t want a life where I and my partner are cut off from our families, so it did not work out.”
We hope that he finds a partner who matches his mental level and they become each other’s best supporters.
