Archana Puran Singh and Parmeet Sethi are well-known for their genuine chemistry and lighthearted banter, which they frequently share in their popular YouTube vlogs. But behind the laughter is a path filled with struggles, progress, and steadfast dedication. Parmeet said in a recent YouTube interview with their son Aryamann Sethi that their marriage went through a particularly difficult period.
Parmeet talks about issues they faced in marriage
Parmeet opened up about doing the Art Of Living course, “I did the Art of Living course. Archana forced me to do it. We were going through a very bad time as husband and wife. We were fighting a lot. She said, `Come and do the course.` I did not want to do it. I went to Bangalore, did the course.”
He further added, “After the course, mere andar jo jo cheezein thi, jo jo kachra pada hua tha in my soul, in my being, vo sab bahar aa gaya. (After the course, all the things that were bottled inside me came out.) I cried loudly for my sister who had died earlier. I cried to my heart’s content. I used to diet a lot during that time, but during the meditation, I imagined myself eating rich food. After that, all my physical ailments were gone after that day.”
The couple`s story exemplifies resiliency. After her first marriage ended in divorce, Archana was hesitant to marry again. However, that changed when she met Parmeet at a party. Despite the seven-year age difference, their friendship grew swiftly.

They spent four years together before eloping and secretly marrying in 1992. They kept their marriage under wraps due to concerns about Archana`s performing profession.
Parmeet`s parents were first skeptical, concerned about Archana`s advanced age and professional career, but they soon welcomed her with open arms. More than three decades later, the couple remains happily married, with two sons, Aaryamann and Ayushmaan.
