Ankita Konwar, wife of Milind Soman has always been quite active on social media. Yesterday she took her Instagram handle to carry out a question-answer session with her fans. Many of her fans posted tricky questions which she answered quite well.
One of her fans asked her, “It’s been years of your marriage, what do u think about family planning?” She answered the fan with an epic statement, “We are planned family, next :)”
Ankita got married to athlete Milind Soman on April 22, 2018. Both of them faced a lot of criticism because of 26 years of the age difference between them. Trolling, for them, was a part and parcel of life since then.
During the QnA round, one of her followers asked her, “How did you tackle/ manage this Indian stereotype of ‘don’t marry an older man?” To which she replied, “Anything that’s not common in a society, people usually like to talk about it. And it’s not just limited to India. We as a species, have a tendency to get weird about the unknown, the unexplored AKA fear. A survival skill. And sometimes we are not conscious enough to distinguish between the utility and the waste of that skill. I have always done what makes me happy.”
A fan also asked for relationship advice from her, for which she wrote, “Every relationship is different. But there are a few certain things that remain the same. Respect for each other, trusting your partner, open communication and loads and loads of love. Love really conquers all.”
One of her fans, humorously wrote, “Reports say you are running while sweetly answering all our questions.” to which she answered, “Haha…not today.”
Recently, they celebrated their third marriage anniversary and also posted some happy pictures together on social media. Both of them are doing well in their career while handling all the trolls from society.
