Swastika Mukherjee has dated –
- Promit Sen – In 1998, she was 18 years old when she got married to singer Promit Sen, the son of Rabindra Sangeet singer Sagar Sen. However, their marriage wasn’t a happy one and lasted only around 2 years as she accused Promit of physically abusing her and locking her out of their home when she was pregnant. Subsequently, she filed a charge against him for cruelty and solicitation of dowry. The charges were later dismissed and Promit was acquitted.
She also filed an affidavit in court stating that her accusations were ‘unfounded, false, baseless and speculative’ and then confessed the same in a media conference. As a result, Promit’s brother sued her for damages in Calcutta High Court and she was held liable for ₹7.7 crores ($1.7 million). Swastika has stated that he filed for divorce in 2000 but then changed his mind as she established herself as an actor. They have a daughter named Anwesha (b. 2000). - Jeet (b. Jeetendra Madnani) – While working together on the 2004 Bengali thriller film Mastan, Swastika Mukherjee and actor Jeet began going out. The duo has also worked together on many other films such as Kranti, Sathihara, Priyotoma, Krishnakanter Will, Pitribhumi, and Partner.
- Parambrata Chatterjee – She was once romantically involved with actor and director Parambrata Chatterjee whom she started dating while they were working on the 2009 Bengali film Brake Fail. However, as Mukherjee was still legally married to Promit Sen at the time, Promit filed a charge against Parambrata Chatterjee for criminal adultery and enticement of a married woman. The couple separated in the year 2010 when Chatterjee moved to Bristol.
