In an interview with Dhanya Varma, Archana revealed, “I met him on a dating app while my home was being constructed in Kannur. I was on the app just to pass the time and had no intention of dating. But with him, right from the beginning, we were discussing big things. It felt as though some other force had brought us together.”
She continued, “I shared everything with him, including my traumas. This was a strategy I used to follow. I know it’s not ideal, but I used to tell the person I was dating all my bad habits. I wanted to see if they could handle the nonsense I was bringing into the relationship.”
Archana also spoke about the importance of emotional understanding in a relationship, saying that nowadays, people often don’t recognize the significance of mental health. She explained that while many might say such issues are normal and promise to support their partners during breakdowns, most end up walking away when truly faced with the situation.
The actress concluded, “However, with Rick, his words and actions genuinely aligned, and that was what made him different.”
