The bitter experience has not made Mandana disillusioned with the institution of marriage. “For me also, I might have gone through so much and the day I am ready, I am going to fall in love again. I absolutely believe in marriage and family because that’s what my core morals are. I come from a country like Iran. Iran is very similar to Indian culture. For us, getting married, having kids, a family making a house - all that is the basic morale of any family,” she said.
