Romance in real life

Actor Jason Tham drew eyeballs when he recently shared screen space with Alia Bhatt in Jigra. But off-screen, his eyes are glued on his wife, Deekshha Sonalkar Tham, whom he married in 2021. Deekshha is an actor too and owes her popularity to Kaise Tum Mil Gaye. Ironically, that is the first question we asked Jason Tham – Kaise tum mil gaye?

Q. How did you first meet Deekshha?

A. Deekshha and I found each other in November 2015 on the set of Agent Raghav. She was playing the antagonist.

Q. What was your initial reaction when you saw her?

A. She was introduced by a common friend, my co-actor Aahana Kumra. I looked at Deekshha and couldn't stop smiling.

Q. What are the traits that you found attractive in her?

A. She's been honest, loyal, and weird in a good way.

Q. What did she find attractive about you?

A. Well, in me, she found a funny boyfriend.

Q. What was the ice-breaker?

A. On the set, our team ate lunch together, and Deekshha joined us for one lunch. That's how we started to get to know each other.

Q. Who took the initiative to fix a date?
