There was a film with the humorous title John Apparao 40 Plus. In those days, staying unmarried past 40 was considered taboo. But now, it has become common.
Many men and women over 40 are choosing to remain unmarried, and this trend is seen not only in everyday life but also among celebrities.
Anushka Shetty recently turned 44, Trisha 41 last summer, and Sada just crossed 40. While many actresses marry by their 30s and balance careers and family, these stars remain unmarried past 40. Their choices are personal, but rumors persist about their single status.
Anushka Shetty has faced dating rumors for years, particularly with actor Prabhas. At one time, many thought they might marry, but both clarified they’re only friends. Recently, speculation arose about her marrying director Krish, but she stated he’s simply a close friend.
Similarly, Trisha has been linked with several figures, from actor Rana to a Tamil actor to a Dubai businessman. Despite such rumors, she remains happily single. In a Tamil media interview, Trisha’s statement, “Why marry?” sparked curiosity.
Sada clarified she’s open to marriage but hasn’t found the right person. Content at 40, she believes happiness isn’t guaranteed by marriage.
Stars like Kiran Rathod (43), Tabu (53) and Nagma (49) also remain unmarried, with some sharing their preference for single life.
Remaining single seems to be a favorite choice for many as the times are passing. 'Single Status' is something that's gaining prominence.
