Reflecting on their marriage, Bhavana emphasized the importance of supporting each other through both highs and lows. “When they say he is your partner for life, then it is all about going through the ups and the downs together,” she explained, underscoring how she and Chunky have always been there for each other.

She recalled how Chunky maintained his strength during a low career phase, never letting the family feel the impact. “I think he was the strong one because he never let us feel anything. You know, I’ve always said that even though he was going through a rough patch in his career. And he didn’t have the kind of work he wanted, he never let it bring down the family. He never came home in a bad mood, and he never took it out on any of us. He always gave us the best life,” she said.
Bhavana concluded by sharing a perspective on success that has been a guiding force for her family, expressing that true success is about finding happiness, staying content, and not allowing setbacks to affect oneself or loved ones.
