Prarthana Behere who witnessed popularity and stardom through Pavitra Rishta is ready to take the big step in life. 

Her last television show was Pavitra Rishta where she played the lead Ankita Lokhande's younger sister.

She left the show within a year and went on to pursue her career in films. She has done a lot of Marathi and Hindi films.

The actress now wants to settle down in life and also continue her acting career, she will be getting engaged in August to director Abhishek Jawkar, which will be followed by a destination wedding in November. 

She recently spoke to a leading daily and on being asked about her marriage she said, "I will get engaged in August and the wedding is on November 14. It's an arranged marriage; I met Abhishek through a marriage bureau. We are keen to have a destination wedding."

She also added, "I never aspired to become an actor myself, I wanted to be a writer-director. I can't relate to most actors, as all they talk about is fitness and make-up. I am more inclined towards filmmaking; I believe that's where the real work happens. I like conversing with directors and writers. Being from the same industry, it's easy for us to understand each other. Many things are common between us; we keep talking about the industry as we both are into films."

When asked if there is any chance of returning to television, Prarthana said, "I don't want to take up a TV show because I love doing films. I will continue working after marriage. Abhishek is a writer-director and he doesn't want me to quit acting."
