By Deepti Sharma 
Rahul (Casanova) Roy has finally settled down. After going around with model Rajlakshmi Khanvilkar for over two years, the wedding finally took place.
Earlier the couple had scheduled the saat-pherasfor November 21 but for undeclared astrological reasons, they finally settled down on Ganpati.
However Rajlakshmi's parents were quite apprehensive about the match because of Roy's reputation.
Rajlakshmi, ex-wife of model Sameer Soni is thrilled. Right now, Rahul is going through the worst phase of his career despite that she is ready to give him a chance.
The couple are full of praises for each other. Rajlakshmi who has gone through the pangs of a broken marriage with model Sameer Soni has chosen him for his patience and fatherly care, which he bestows upon her. Rahul admires her for her bluntness. Rahul believes that his marriage has made him religious and he has started believing in god.
The two ex-girlfriends of Roy were surprised that finally the incorrigible flirt made it to the altar. Suman Ranganathan, famous more for her roaring affair rather than her films was taken aback
Manisha Koirala who was good friends with Rahul was thrilled with the news and called back to congratulate him.
To me Rajlaxmi is perfection
....And many more truths from Rahul Roy
"There's no business like show business", they say. And for many the business of cinema is as volatile as the cinema itself. Thus upon meeting Rahul Roy the man, as opposed to many of the two-dimensional characters he's essayed as his screen persona, he is surprising three-dimensional. To those that know him he is reputed to be warm, kind, extremely responsible and a real life hero.
Rahul lost his parents at the tender age of twelve, and both he and his brother grew up overnight in a world that didn't have parental love and guidance. Both boys studied diligently and pursued their dreams.
After the first blush of meteoritic success with Aashiqui , the star dealt with a low career ebb and flow with a spat of consecutive mediocre and unsuccessful films. Till date, although Rahul can boast of thirty-four films in his dossier, he is still struggling, according to Bollywood's definition of "true" success and stardom. We get a chance to meet the man and learn of his achievements out of cinema that some may say are the most important. Outside Bollywood in his life and relationships.
ShaadiTimes caught up with the star at Mehboob Studies where he is currently shooting for a film on Sufism. Rahul plays one of the leads... this time as the father.
Refuting media reports of marital break-up
At the onset of the interview we dismiss rumours of any discord with his lovely wife of six years, former model Rajlaxmi Khanvilkar, "Yeah a few months earlier a couple of papers had said that there was a break up between us," says Rahul. "This was completely fabricated," he attests.
"I know it is part of being a celebrity that you are scrutinized all the time, but it can be frustrating and lead to more problems." He adds, "It is true Rajlaxmi is presently living in Sydney," and then clarifies, "she is there to obtain her degree in architecture and she has my complete and unconditional support on this. I try and visit her every few months depending on my schedule or she comes here."
Has marriage changed the man?
"Obviously," laughs the star. Rahul who also shared a longtime relationship with actress / model Suman Raganathan says of marriage, "I think it mellows a person and makes him more responsible and emotional. Today our marriage is working because we have an understanding in a relationship which is a tough thing to achieve." He pauses, "I was reading a recent article where Shah Rukh Khan has said 'there has to be commitment in work and this has to also continue into your relationship and both need the same amount of effort'."
The most important factor in achieving a successful marriage?
"I think it is in spending quality rather than quantitative time together."
On his wife Rajlaxmi
"I hate to sound clichd but she completes me in every sense of the word. She can complete a sentence before I even say it. It's uncanny how she knows my innermost thoughts and even what I am going to say to her before I actually say it. "Plus, "to me she is perfection. I am still trying," he jokes.
The qualities he admires the most in her?
"She's honest," he says without hesitation. "She's straightforward. Once she chooses a particular cause she goes all out for it. She's also compassionate, soft and yet tough and blunt when she has to be."
As he enters this phase of his life what has he learnt?
"I think most people when they are young they are slightly brash and reckless. And then you get older and other things become priority. We get carried away with I need to have a house, a car pay down debts. I need to get that woman.
I think I've remained the same more or less, but I don't party as much and I look forward to spending quiet time with my wife. We go shopping, enjoy nature, watching television and just being with each other." He sums it up, "we still go for walks together and hold each other hands." I think you also learn to try everything. I have a business outside of cinema where I run a company that imports raw wool and LED board, and I think that keeps me grounded.
Actors and actresses in Bollywood and Hollywood he admires?
"The first would be Amitabh Bachchan. I also watched a lot of Clint Eastwood movies when I was growing up. For actresses it would be the legendary Katherine Hepburn because of the way she carried herself," he says. About today's stars, "I would like to work with Ajay Devgan and Kajol both are incredibly talented, and have also completed many quality films."

Rahul, Rajlaxmi split
July 27, 2006 : Rajlaxmi Khanvilkar and Rahul Roy; Yet another marriage in the glamour industry bites the dust. Actor Rahul Roy (of Aashiqui fame) and model Rajlaxmi Khanvilkar's marriage is on the rocks.
Our source told us, "Rahul and Rajlaxmi have been staying separately for nearly four years. Rajlaxmi is currently in Australia, doing a course in architecture. Because of the distance, the couple has drifted apart."
One of the main reasons why the marriage is over is because Rajlaxmi wants to settle in Australia, but Rahul does not want to leave his roots.
When contacted, Rahul initially said, "I don't want to comment on my personal life," but later admitted, "Rajlaxmi and I are still in touch.
She comes to India sometimes. I have visited her in Australia. But yes, the distance has taken its toll on our marriage, like it generally does in any relationship. At this point, I do not know where we are heading. I leave it in the hands of God."
Is it that they have started thinking differently because they stay in different countries? "I don't think that's the reason. Differences crop up in any relationship. There is nothing obnoxious like a third party or anything. Since my personal life cannot be controlled, I am concentrating on my work. I don't want to say anything more," he said.
Second innings : Rajlaxmi was earlier married to actor Samir Soni, whom she met while doing an ad for Cadbury's. Rajlaxmi modelled for print and ramp shows for a long time, and even featured in a number of music videos.She was also seen in the song Aa Tayaar Hoja in the Shah Rukh Khan-starrer Asoka.
Rahul burst onto the scene with the superhit Aashiqui, didn't make it big in Bollywood. He was also appreciated in films like Sapne Saajan Ke and Phir Teri Kahani Yaad Aayi.
What went wrong with Rahul's career?
Though Aashiqui made Rahul Roy a big sensation, his career went downhill after some pretty bad choices, like Pyaar Ka Saaya and Baarish. Sometime back, he did a few TV serials like Kaise Kahun? (Zee), Karishma — The Miracles of Destiny (SaharaOne) and Ehsaas (Doordarshan).
Rahul said, "I am going to do only films now. I have completed two English films, called Soul Rain and Dated. I am listening to some interesting scripts in Bollywood."Actor Rahul Roy and his (former top model) wife Rajlaxmi are upset about the rumors that their marriage is on the rocks. Rajlaxmi is pursuing a course in architecture in Australia. She wasn't enjoying modeling and decided for it. She says, "Rahul and I sat down and discussed what I should be doing. In fact, if support, my parents would never have let me come to Sydney." On their relationship, she adds, "He stood by me. He is the man I want too grow old with. He has given me that immense satisfaction, peace and security in the relationship

Laughing at Rahul
September 11, 2006
Rahul Roy really doesn't understand his spouse. Either that or his better half, Rajlakshmi Khanvilkar, has no idea what he's been telling all and sundry.
Rahul Roy
In an interview, Roy confessed that since Rajlakshmi was in Sydney pursuing a course in architecture, the distance had taken a toll on their marriage.
Recently, Rajlakshmi reacted to our report by saying that she and Roy had a good laugh over the story. It seems Roy's pangs of loneliness have taken a toll on his brains.
He goes on record about something as important as his crumbling marriage, and then laughs about it with his wife. He says he's concentrating on work. Work? It's our turn to have a long, long laugh.
