Swastika Mukherjee: Marriage
She wed Promit Sen, the singer of ‘Rabindra Sangeet’, in 1998 when she was 18 years old. Unfortunately, the couple’s marriage only lasted 2 years before it ended. She claimed that he had physically abused her and had removed her from her house while she was pregnant. She reported him for abuse in her complaint. Mukherjee claims that Sen requested a divorce in 2000 but later decided against it after finding great success in the performing world. Anwesha, a daughter from a previous marriage, was born in 2000.

Tanusree Shankar, a seasoned dancer, taught Mukherjee how to dance when he joined at the ‘Ananda Shankar Culture Center’ in 2001. On the filming of Brake Fail, she later began dating Parambrata Chatterjee. Pramit Sen filed a case against Chatterjee for ‘adultery & seducing’ a married lady because she was still technically wedded to him. In 2010, after Chatterjee relocated to Bristol, they split up. She began dating her Mastan co-star Jeet while the movie was being made. After that, they shared screen time in a number of movies, including Partner, Kranti and Krishnakanter Will.
