Sharing how he met his wife at a wedding in Ludhiana, when he was only 15 years old, Avinesh said, "It was a school boy - school girl infatuation when we first met at a wedding in Ludhiana. We instantly liked each other and I decided to stay in touch after that. She was based in Delhi and I was in Chandigarh, but I would manage to go to PCO booths and talk to her for hours. One day the PCO booth guy sent a bill which ran into thousands and my family was shocked! Our families also felt that we should give up on this infatuation and just focus on our careers. Since it was long distance, we could not meet often and I can say it was more of a phone friendship for many years. It's only when I was in my final year of college, I started going to Delhi on my bike to meet her. Our friendship blossomed into love and then within a year of getting a TV show, we got married in December 2010. It's after my marriage that I got Chal - Sheh Aur Maat in 2012.
I was already married when I acted in Chal - Sheh Aur Maat but people wrongly assumed that I kept it a secret. People never asked me about my marital status and I felt it was best kept private and personal. But I never shied away from talking about my wife."
Talking about his family life, he said, "Raisa is a very homely. She used to be an airhostess but quit her career to focus on family. Women can make a house into a home and I wanted someone like that. Of course I was okay with her pursuing a career, but I also wanted family to be our top priority. I am not joking when I say that I have not dated any girl besides Raisa. It was always her from school to college and now."
