Abhijeet Sawant reveals he used Tinder after marriage, says wife was unaware
Abhijeet Sawant was on Tinder
In a no-holds-barred chat with Hindi Rush, Abhijeet spilled the tea about his low-key presence on the dating app. It all started during a trip to the US with a friend who introduced him to the concept of dating apps. Curiosity got the better of him, and he made a profile using his real name. 'I never met anyone in real life, but I liked to check it out occasionally,' he revealed.
Apparently, the singer has always been someone who enjoys deep conversations, especially with women. He confessed that he matched with two or three people and would engage in thoughtful chats. According to Abhijeet, the app felt a bit weird, but the thrill of connection and conversation kept him coming back, for a while at least.
What was wife's reaction?
And where was his wife, Shilpa Sawant, in all this? Completely unaware. 'She had no idea what Tinder even was,' he said. That is, until now. Abhijeet casually added that now that it is all out in the open, it is fine. 'If you are going to do something, do it openly,' he said, standing by his 'no shame' policy.
Twitter eventually outed his profile, which made him uncomfortable enough to delete it. 'It wouldn't look good,' he acknowledged, but by then, the swipes had already been made.
Abhijeet Sawant's wedding
Abhijeet and Shilpa have been married since 2007. Childhood sweethearts from the same colony, they have two children together and even competed on Nach Baliye Season 4. So yes, the history is real—but so is the Tinder twist.
From winning Indian Idol to almost winning Bigg Boss Marathi Season 5, Abhijeet has had quite the rollercoaster ride. Now with this revelation, he has reminded everyone that fame may fade, but scandal? Nah, not so soon!

Mujhe nahi pata yeh gaali hai ki kya hai aur Jayshree ko kuch nahi keh sakte. Agar kabhi Jayshree ko puchliya ki aap kaam par kyun nahi aaye? toh kehti hai, Voh main kal Kantaal gayi thi. maine puch phone karke btaaya kyun nahi? Kehti hai surprise. (Jaishree didi still neither calls me Swara nor didi — she just calls me 'Aye Bhendi'. I don't even know if that's a swear word or what, and you can't say anything to Jayshree. If you ever ask her why she didn't come to work, she says, 'I had gone to Kantaal yesterday.' When I asked why she didn't call to inform, she says, 'Surprise!')."

Today isn't just your birthday—it's a reminder of how lucky I am to walk through life with you. You are so many things in one incredible woman: the one who makes me laugh when I least expect it, the best mother our children could ever ask for, a daughter who leads with love and respect, and a friend who shows up—always." He continued, 'You carry more than anyone realises and still somehow give so much of yourself to everyone around you. You're the strength behind so many of our family's happiest moments, even when you're tired, even when no one sees it. You are the glue that holds us together."

You inspire me to be a better person, someone worthy of having you as a partner – I guess I am just happy counting my blessings; God couldn't have been kinder to me. I love you so much, my baiko, much more than words can fully express, but I'll spend my life trying to show you. Happy Birthday, Love."
