Before the marriage, Namrata was acquainted with a young man named Kakasaheb Shivaji Pardhe (Murmi, Gangapur) who was her neighbour. Kakasaheb met Namrata's family and insisted on marrying her.

However, Namrata's parents refused on the grounds that she was still a minor. Despite this, he was wooing her.

Namrata refused the marriage as he was addicted to alcohol. Later, Namrata's family arranged her marriage with a relative. After a few months, she started quarrelling with her husband, so, she decided to be separated from her husband a year ago.
