If there is one senior most actor in Bollywood with the least problematic career till date, that has to be Anil Kapoor. As he gets better with age like fine wine, Anil Kapoor has won our hearts all over again with the things he said about his marriage and the 45-year-old relationship with wife Sunita.
Recently, we saw the man partying like a 22-year-old energetic boy at his daughter’s wedding ceremony. While he continues living the best of his days, Anil Kapoor rekindled the old memories and the relationship he shares with his wife till date.
The couple dated for 10 years, jbtw. From being nothing to being everything, Anil Kapoor and Sunita went through a lot and that is the beauty of their relationship.
In a Post That Is Making Everyone Fall In Love, Here’s What Anil Kapoor Said About Sunita
“A friend of mine gave Sunita my number to prank call me––that’s when I first spoke to her & fell in love with her voice! Soon after, we met at a party––there was just something about her. We started talking & became friends. We used to discuss this other girl I liked – you know, if I like her or she likes me? Then suddenly that girl vanished, leaving me heartbroken – our friendship strengthened because of that!
Little did I know that Sunita was the one all along – we started dating organically. It’s not like in the movies––I didn’t ask her to be my girlfriend––we both just knew.
She was from a liberal family––a banker’s daughter with a modelling career & I was bekaar! She didn’t care who I was or what my profession is – none of it mattered! I lived in Chembur & she lived on Nepeansea road – it took me an hour to reach by bus. She would start screaming, ‘No come fast by cab!’ & I’d say ‘Arrey I don’t have money’ then she’d say ‘Just come na’ & pay for my cab!We dated for 10 years––we travelled and grew together. She was always clear that she won’t enter the kitchen. If I said ‘cook’ I’d get a kick! I knew I needed to become something before asking her to marry me. I went through the struggle of not getting work, but she supported me unconditionally.
So when I got my first break, ‘Meri Jung’ I thought, now house will come, kitchen will come, help will come…I can get married! So I called Sunita & said, ‘Let’s get married tomorrow – it’s tomorrow or never’ & the next day, we were married!
I went for shoot 3 days later & madam went abroad on our honeymoon…without me!
Honestly, she knows me better than I know me. We’ve built our life; our home together. We’ve raised 3 kids & been through ups and downs. But I feel like we’re finally dating now – romantic walks & dinners have just begun!
We’ve been together 45 years––45 years of friendship, love & companionship. They don’t make people like her anymore. She’s the perfect mother, perfect wife & the reason I wake up every morning, motivated. You know why? When I ask her, ‘Arrey, yesterday only I gave you so much money’ she says, ‘Woh sab khatam ho gaya…it’s all finished!’ and I jump out of bed & run to work!”
This is the sweetest thing one has to say about their partner – remembering the bitter, sweet things of life. Remembering how there was someone for you when you had nothing and even after years, someone motivating you to be your better version.
What a lovely relationship!
