Gangs of Wasseypur star Piyush Mishra admits he wasn’t a good husband, often cheated: ‘It took me 10-15 years to realise….’ Actor Piyush Mishra, best known for his role in the critically acclaimed film Gangs of Wasseypur, has opened up about his past marital struggles and the journey of personal growth that led to a deeper understanding of his responsibilities as a husband. In a candid memoir titled Tumhari Auqaat Kya Hai, Mishra reflected on his earlier failures in marriage, acknowledging that he failed to meet the expectations of a devoted partner during the early years of his relationship with his wife, Priya Narayanan. He admitted that it took him over a decade—between 10 to 15 years—to fully grasp the significance of his role in the relationship. Mishra described his younger self as someone who approached love with impulsiveness and emotional intensity, often prioritizing passion over commitment. He admitted to viewing his wife in a limited, almost mechanical way, focusing on her roles as a mother and homemaker rather than recognizing her as an equal partner. Emotional disconnection marked their early years, and he described himself as detached and unfeeling, both in his marriage and in life overall. This emotional distance, he said, was a result of his own ignorance and lack of awareness about the deeper responsibilities of marriage. A turning point in Mishra’s life came with the practice of Vipassana meditation, which he began over the past 15 years. He credited this spiritual practice with helping him reconnect with his emotions and develop empathy for others. Through Vipassana, he began to understand the pain and struggles of those around him, something he had previously overlooked.#delhi #piyush_mishra #priya_narayanan #gangs_of_wasseypur #vipassana_meditation
Piyush Mishra Confesses to Extramarital Affairs, Reflects on 15 Years of Marital Growth Piyush Mishra recently revealed a deeply personal chapter of his life in his memoir Tumhari Auqaat Kya Hai Piyush Mishra, detailing his admission of extramarital affairs to his wife Priya Narayanan. The actor shared insights into his evolving understanding of marriage and the emotional journey that led to his eventual acceptance of his role as a husband. In a conversation with Shubhankar Mishra, Mishra admitted that he was not a responsible husband in the early years of their marriage. He described his younger self as someone who lacked the maturity to shoulder the responsibilities of marriage. “Now I am a good husband; I wasn’t earlier,” he said. “Back then, I wasn’t responsible at all. Marriage is a very big responsibility. When you fall in love at 20, there’s no logic to it, that’s the beauty of it. But after 35, you love the person who is willing to grow old with you. Love is defined by the woman who is ready to grow old with you, and she accepted that she would grow old with me.” Mishra further explained how it took him 10–15 years to fully recognize Priya as his wife. “I accepted very late that I had become a husband,” he said. “It took me a long time. Nearly 10–15 years to realize that she is my wife. Before that, she was just a woman who had my children, cooked for me, and took care of the house. I had no feelings beyond that. I was a very dry person, not just with Priya, but with everything. I didn’t feel anything.” The actor recounted the moment he confessed his infidelities to Priya. “When I realized my mistakes, I sat her down one day and told her everything I had done,” he said. “We were both crying, and we embraced each other. After that, we felt lighter.#delhi #shubhankar_mishra #piyush_mishra #priya_narayanan #arya_samaj_mandir
