Following Zeenat Aman’s comments in support of live-in relationships, veteran actress Mumtaz recently shared her opinion saying she doesn’t support the former’s views on the same. Now, actress Celina Jaitly has shared her take on the idea of live-in.

Following Mumtaz, Celina Jaitly shares her take on live-in relationships; says, “Living together is a great option for LGBT couples”

She said, “While living together or cohabitating is a wise decision practically and financially, it can certainly help assess compatibility and identify potential areas of conflict before committing to marriage. Living together is a great option for LGBT couples who have no marriage union rights in India but for cisgender people, while I have nothing against couples choosing to do that, I am of another viewpoint.”

Celina feels the live-in arrangement could be problematic for the female partner. “In my humble opinion, hoping not to cause hurt to anyone’s sentiments of close observations of many dear friends’ live in relationships, cohabitating couples always have an easy way out. This is the most common reason why people living together do get separated over time. They will no longer work hard to save their relationship because they are not bonded by marriage,” she said.

Celina added, “Many people (mostly men) misuse your emotions to live together on false commitments. Before you start a relationship, you need to know the meaning of real commitment, and part of this is getting married. One disadvantage of living together before marriage is that when you’re not married, you don’t have some of the rights a married person has, especially when dealing with certain laws. If children are involved, it is even more complicated.”
