He remarked, "I thought to convince my wife and get married. I did not expect this to happen. We got acquainted over TikTok. We liked each other's videos on TikTok. She is aware that I am married. She said that our getting married is not correct.” Satyaraj added, "I thought that all our relatives can understand, as they know my wife. She is not looking after my parents. I believe that this girl will look after my parents. So we got married. We exchanged garlands and married. We went to Hyderabad. I admit that marrying the second time is not correct. But I tried to convince my wife to look after my parents, but in vain.”
