Jason Shah On Breakup With Anusha Dandekar: "Trying To Make Me Fit In A Box"

Jason Shah plays Alastair Cartwright in Heeramandi

Actor Jason Shah is enjoying his moment in the spotlight thanks to his role as Alastair Cartwright in the Netflix series Heeramandi. The actor's spirited performance has sparked renewed interest in his professional and personal life. Jason Shah was reported to be dating VJ and actress Anusha Dandekar but the relationship was short-lived. While the relationship was widely reported in the media, Jason Shah has remained tight-lipped about the details of the breakup.

Now, in an interaction with ETimes, Jason Shah confirmed the breakup but refused to divulge details about it or his current relationship status. He said: "I have had a big spiritual change in my life since then (his last breakup), which has made me wiser." The only thing he will say about the relationship is this – "It was rushed. I didn't really think about it. The other person didn't really understand me and I felt they were trying to make me fit in their box. And that is not going to happen, right?"

Reflecting on modern relationships, Jason Shah added: “A huge problem with relationships today, and one of the main reasons for breakups and divorces is that people don't really listen to the other. They're only trying to put forth what they feel. That's the sad part. Only when you listen to what a person says, especially earlier on, will your relationship last longer."
