Piseth Pilika was very involved in movie making.
That was when she met Khai Praseth, also a well-known actor. The two
played together in many movies and music videos. As was meant to be,
the love stories on screen between the two propagated into the love
story off screen. In 1990, they became husband and wife. In 1992, their
first child was born under the name Kai Seth Lesak. Everything went
on very well. They were seen as a very happy family, a perfect couple.
After marriage, Piseth Pilika continued on with her career as an actress
and a traditional dancer. She starred in more than sixty movies and
was in numerous advertisements. Some of her favorite movies are Somlaing
Tro Khmer, Sromorl Anthakal, and Tok Pey Robos Keo Ning Neang Neth.
Apart from making movies, she was also very active in stage performance.
During her lifetime, she went out to perform in many countries such
as India, Thailand, Vietnam, Singapore, Indonesia, China, Korea, Japan,
Russia, France, Italy, Danmark, and the United States. It can be said
that she had quite a busy life. Was she too busy with her career that
she forgot about her family? There is no answer to this question or
maybe this is not the question to be asked. However, the relationship
between Piseth Pilika and Khai Praseth began to deteriorate. Rumors
started to circulate in the country about their failing relationship.
According to an unconfirmed source, Khai Praseth, was in a relationship
with another woman. This woman was the daughter of one of the top ranking
officials in Cambodia. Because of this, some people said Khai Praseth
was forced into this relationship by this woman's father. (Sound weird?
This kind of thing is possible in Cambodia) Being forced or volunteered,
but seeing your own husband with another woman was very hard to swallowed.
Besides, what would she tell the public if asked? Facing with this kind
of pressure, on September 1998, she filed for divorce. There was no
doubt that she still love her husband. Two karaoke songs that she was
in seemed to describe her inner feeling, and her love story. Click the
