Who Is Surabhi Tiwari? All About Manoj Tiwari’s Second Wife, Marriage, Career and Family

Manoj Tiwari has been in the spotlight for two different reasons. The Bhojpuri star and BJP MP is appearing with his wife, Surabhi Tiwari, in the second season of Pati Patni Aur Panga. Meanwhile, his daughter Rhiti Tiwari has been discussing her family on Bigg Boss 20.

On the September 25 episode, Rhiti opened up about the separation of her parents. She spoke about the period when Manoj moved on and found a partner in Surabhi. For Rhiti, this was a source of happiness rather than resentment. 

Surabhi, unlike her husband, has kept away from much of the public side of show business. Her involvement has largely been with the work that takes place away from the screen, including the management of two production companies.

Surabhi is believed to be in her late 30s. She and Manoj got married in 2020. The marriage has since given them two daughters. Saanvika, their elder child, was born in 2020, while Manogya, their younger daughter, was born two years later in 2022. Rhiti, meanwhile, is Manoj’s daughter from his previous marriage.

There is more to Surabhi’s career than her association with Manoj. She is a singer who hails from Patna and has also been involved in social work. She serves as a trustee of the Mridul Foundation and has business responsibilities as a director of Saanvika Films and Rhiti Productions. Her public profile may be smaller than Manoj’s, but her work has placed her on the production and organisational side of the entertainment business.

Manoj Tiwari married Pratima Pandey in 1999. After the wedding, she took the name Rani Tiwari. Their daughter Rhiti was born a few years later. The marriage did not last. Manoj and Rani separated in 2011 and completed their divorce the following year.

Rhiti spoke about those years during the September 25 episode of Bigg Boss 20. She said,“8 saal ki thi jab dad ghar se nikal gaye. 9 saal ki thi jab divorce final hui. Mom got my custody.”

Aamrapali Dubey later asked Rhiti if Manoj had tried to get custody. Rhiti said she believed her father had held on to the hope that the marriage might still be repaired. The situation was painful for both of them. When she met Manoj, she would cry because “mere paas mere papa nahi hai aur mere papa ke paas unki beti nahi hai.”

The relationship changed as Rhiti grew older. She said the two developed a friendly bond. During their meetings, she would sit with her father and teach him English. Aamrapali even credited Rhiti with helping Manoj improve his vocabulary.

Rhiti then spoke about the role Surabhi played in her father’s life. She became emotional while recalling that period. She said that nobody was happier than she was when Surabhi entered Manoj’s life. She shared, “Jab unki life mein Surbhi aayi, mujhse zyada khush aur koi nahi tha. He was very alone. Mujhe meri maa bohot pyaari hai but voh toh mere baap hai.”

Rhiti Tiwari works across several parts of music. She writes songs, creates their compositions and performs them herself. Her work includes tracks such as Chale Aao and Jhoothi Baby, which have helped bring her wider attention. 

Her recent fame, however, comes from television. She has been involved in repeated arguments with Qazi Touqeer on Bigg Boss 20. Early in the season, she also spoke openly about feeling insecure in his presence.

Conclusion

Surabhi Tiwari is Manoj Tiwari’s second wife. She has worked away from the limelight, from singing to social work, to Saanvika Films and Rhiti Productions. Rhiti Tiwari’s heart-wrenching memories on Bigg Boss 20 have also helped to reveal her role in Manoj’s family narrative. Surabhi’s arrival was also seen as a positive development, as Rhiti noted that it was a challenging period for her family.

The fame of Manoj and Surabhi is certainly back in the news as they are seen together in Pati Patni Aur Panga. Manoj isn’t a stranger to the camera, while Surabhi appears to be proving that you don’t need to be the constant companion of the spotlight to be in showbiz.
