Tumm Se Tumm Tak actress Niharika Chouksey on Valentine's Day; says 'For me, love isn’t just about romance; it’s also about friendships'

Valentine’s Day is often associated with roses, candlelight dinners, and grand confessions, but at its heart, it’s really about celebrating the people who make life feel special. And on television, few emotions connect with audiences as deeply as love. Over the years, viewers have fallen for stories that grow slowly, feel honest, and reflect relationships that aren’t perfect but are real.

The recent romantic proposal between Arya and Anu on "Tumm Se Tumm Tak" was one of the sweetest scenes in the series so far. The proposal was based on the fact that the two characters built their relationship (and the proposal itself) through hard work, patience and love. Viewers have followed Arya and Anu through their entire journey, so they could relate to how Arya proposed to Anu since it felt natural & genuine.

Talking about this special phase in the show and how she plans to celebrate Valentine’s Day, Niharika Chouksey, who plays Anu, shared, “Romance in Tumm Se Tumm Tak has reached a very special stage, and the recent proposal between Arya and Anu beautifully captures that emotion. What I love about this love story is that it isn’t rushed or flashy; it’s built on trust, patience, and emotional depth." She added, "While the show celebrates love in its most romantic form, in real life, I’m all about celebrating Valentine’s Day with my girl gang. For me, love isn’t just about romance; it’s also about friendships that lift you, make you laugh together, and stand by you through everything. This Valentine’s Day, I’m looking forward to enjoying the day with my closest friends, creating memories, and celebrating love in all its fun, heartfelt forms.” While Anu and Arya are developing some sort of relationship on-screen, Niharika reminds us that Valentine’s Day isn’t solely about one kind of love, but rather about celebrating every type that makes us feel loved, supported, and happy.
