Ravi Kishan Fell in Love in School, Meet His Biggest Support, Preeti
Ravi and Preeti’s love story began when they were both in the 11th grade. It was love at first sight for Ravi. As he moved to Mumbai to chase his dreams, life became tough, from financial struggles to sleeping on an empty stomach. But Preeti remained by his side through it all. She believed in him even during his lowest points and pushed him to participate in a reality show, which eventually gave him nationwide recognition and changed his life.
The couple got married in 1993 and have built a loving family together. They are parents to four children, three daughters, Reeva, Tanishk, and Ishita, and a son named Saksham. Reeva followed her father's path into acting and made her debut with the film Sab Kushal Mangal.
Meanwhile, Ishita has chosen a completely different journey and is currently serving in the Defence Forces. She trained hard in harsh winter conditions and even participated in the Republic Day Parade at Kartavya Path as a cadet of the 7 Girls Battalion of Delhi Directorate.
Preeti, who prefers to stay away from the limelight, is known to be deeply spiritual and grounded. She has played a crucial role in Ravi’s life not only as a wife and mother but also as a source of strength and calm. While not much is known about her early life, Preeti is now also known for her work in politics.
Ravi Kishan’s journey, which spans over 30 years and multiple languages including Bhojpuri, Hindi, and Telugu, is a story of hard work, family values, and love. And through it all, Preeti has been the constant behind his success, cheering him on from the sidelines and keeping him grounded, no matter how high he rose.
