Shahid Kapoor and Mira Rajput got hitched in 2015.
Mira Rajput and Shahid Kapoor are a match made in heaven. The couple, who have been happily married for more than nine years now, has time and again proven that they are the epitome of love and cuteness. Their social media posts serve as a window into their lives, filled with romantic gestures, playful selfies, and a constant showcase of their romance. Their romance gives fans and followers an idea of a perfect relationship. But do you know the Deva actor himself doesn’t consider their relationship a ‘perfect marriage?’
The actor, in a recent interview with Raj Shamani, shared insights on how he and his wife reach mutual agreements on various matters. During a conversation with Raj Shamani on his YouTube podcast, Shahid spoke about his idea of a perfect marriage. He expressed that imperfect relationships have an underlying beauty in them.
He said, “It’s a dangerous term you should avoid using. It usually leads to disappointment. There’s nothing called a perfect marriage, and that’s rule number one. It is an ongoing journey of understanding, acceptance, and mutual respect. I think those things are very important. If I can worry about what matters to the other person and they can worry about what matters to me, it’s a healthy marriage.
“On the contrary, if I am trying to focus on what matters to me and let the other person know what matters to me and the other person is trying to let me know what matters to them, then it’s a recipe for disaster, and I have tried both,” he added.
In the same conversation, the actor mentioned that a big part of their marriage is that they have divided on who will veto what. Citing an example, he shared his example and said that in case Mira is not at home and one of their kids falls ill in his presence, they will communicate, but still Mira will make the final decision.
Sharing the reason for it, Shahid noted, “Eventually, it’s her decision because she has spent more time taking care of them. In the first 7-8 years of my marriage, I have worked more. Now Mira started working a lot more, but she has much more information. She is at the top in that aspect of the children. So, if that day I happen to be there, it doesn’t mean I get a veto. We will still have to communicate, but eventually, she takes the decision.
Bollywood couple Shahid Kapoor and Mira Rajput got hitched back in 2015 in a lavish ceremony. The couple are proud parents of two children—Misha and Zain. They welcomed their first child, a baby girl, in 2016. In 2018, the actor embraced parenthood for the second time with the birth of their son Zain.
