Bollywood heartthrob Neil Nitin Mukesh, who seemed all set to tie the knot with his designer girlfriend Priyanka Bhatia, has called off the long-standing engagement. Reports reveal that Neil, who had previously confirmed that he wanted to marry her by the end of 2010, has officially split with his fiancé, and the actor is now planning to move back to his parents’ house here.
Neil and Priyanka had been dating each other for almost two years. Talking to a news daily a few months ago, Neil had confessed, “I love Priyanka. She’s the best thing to have happened to me.”
Whereas, confirming the news of his break-up, Neil, in a recent interview with a daily tabloid, said, “I really don’t want to discuss it but since you’re asking me, I won’t lie. It is true that Priyanka and I are no longer a couple. The parting was by mutual consent and very amicable. We’re still friends and always will be. Priyanka is still as welcome in my home as I am in hers.”
Neil also mentioned that there were a number of reasons behind the decision. “I can’t discuss them all but mainly my profession, namely acting, was far removed from her world. To her credit, Priyanka tried to be part of my world but it just didn’t work.”
“I really wanted us to be together for keeps but sometimes destiny has other plans. To compound my problems, I am currently staying alone in our flat in Powai. But considering what happened now, I plan to shift back with my parents,” Neil added.
