As everyone knows by now, none of the couples matched by Sima Taparia on Indian Matchmaking saw a happily ever after. However, Aparna Shewakramani sings a different tune when asked about her match on the show, Jay. Although the Indian Matchmaking star initially denied taking forward her rishta with Jay Wadhwani, she seems to be secretly planning a future with him. Sounds like classic Aparna, doesn’t it?

Aparna Shewakramani became one of the most talked-about characters on Indian Matchmaking, due to her apparently “stubborn” stance. Choosing to find a suitable spouse via the traditional route of arranged matchmaking made the Houston-based lawyer turn to Mumbai’s top matchmaker, Taparia. Her criteria was specific and she wanted a soulmate who could rub shoulders with her success, but Taparia’s suggested matches were not deemed worthy by Aparna. Then, she met Jay Wadhwani (much later in the search) and actually started enjoying his company. The two chatted over video calls and even attended an adorable session of goat yoga. Aparna eventually said, “I don’t hate him,” which meant a lot coming from her. Did Jay help the Indian Matchmaking celeb overcome her 17-year stroke of relationship bad luck? There is a possibility that he did.

Screen Rant got in touch with Aparna, who’s now basking in the after-effects of instant stardom, and asked her about her experience on Indian Matchmaking. An important question that popped up was about her future with Jay. Jay had shared his thoughts about his Netflix match by saying that, although the twosome stopped talking after the show, they rekindled their conversations after the launch announcement. Distance played a major role in their drifting apart, but Jay did hint that a future with Aparna was “not off the table.” Aparna had her own take on his confession when she told Screen Rant, “I'm very flattered to hear that - we certainly do have a wonderful friendship.” However, the twosome may be planning more than just friendship. Aparna revealed that while she can’t predict their future, they are “both looking to move to NYC in 2021.

Indian Matchmaking did have an episode where Aparna and Jay spoke about moving to New York or L.A., but Jay, who is the co-founder of Painted Countertops, seems to have convinced her to finally relocate. Taparia’s two candidates had a spark of chemistry, as they bonded over not wanting children at their wedding. Jay even spoke about introducing Aparna to his family. This seemed like a very big step in their relationship, and if it has indeed happened, it could mean that Taparia’s Cupid skills did work after all.

Although many Indian Matchmaking viewers saw Aparna as a negative person, mainly owing to Taparia’s harsh comments about her, they now realize that it was just her being unabashedly honest. Aparna has spoken about talking to Jay every day and has also said how she’s friends with both Dilip and Shekar from the show. Her attitude was shown as a personality issue on Indian Matchmaking, but the fact that she’s made friends with her cast members surely says a lot about her amicable side, which sadly wasn’t exposed by Netflix.
