Sharing her love story with beau Maneck Contractor to the daily, Pooja said that, "Maneck and I have known each other since our boarding-school days. He was three years my senior.

That was how we reconnected."

Speaking about the same, she told Bombay Times that, “I got divorced on February 14, 2003, and got engaged on February 14, 2019. I have had relationships in between and my kids have liked every person that I have been with. But it is very different with Maneck — they adore him and want him in our lives forever, which is a wonderful feeling as a single parent. They are happy that I am settling down finally. They have wanted this for me for the longest time. It’s a wonderful phase — my son is studying abroad, my daughter is entering films and the empty nest syndrome that a lot of mothers face has been filled beautifully by this relationship and my journey ahead with Maneck.Pooja Bedi engaged to boyfriend Maneck Contractor; Set to get married later this year!
