New Delhi. You must have heard this beautiful title track of ‘Hum Bane Tum Bane each other for each other…’ in the year 1981 film ‘Ek Duje Ke To’. This song is special for every couple who fell in love and then both have vowed 7 births to live together. In this song adorned with the voice of SP Balsubramanian and Lata Mangeshkar, you saw Kamal Haasan and Rati Agnihotri. Both were in the headlines for their love life. But, the actress who is talking about today, the love story of that 37 -year -old Hasina is no less than a film story.
‘Pyaar’ is a sense that is beyond boundaries like religion, caste, high and low. True love is associated with the soul, thinking and feelings of a human being and not by the identity decided by his birth. Today, this 37 -year -old actress would understand this. But it used to show his hero only because he used to belong to the rich family. This actress is none other than Genelia D’Souza.
Love story was not easy
Genelia D’Souza and Ritesh Deshmukh are one of the most beautiful and favorite couples in the industry. Some people believe that with time, love gets less in every relationship. This is because humans get caught in other responsibilities with time. But the cases of Genelia and Ritesh are not like this at all. The two do not seem to be 13 years since their marriage has been given to each other by giving respect and love for each other. But would you believe that the love story of both was not so easy. The perception of Genelia’s Ritesh earlier was very bad.

Ritesh used to live in discussions with his debut
If 37 -year -old actress Genelia D’Souza is not an example of humility, understanding and simplicity, it will not be an exaggeration. But, after the first meeting in 2003, she did not think well about them. Actually, he met with Ritesh on the set of ‘Tujhe Meri Kasam’. At that time, Ritesh was already in the headlines. That is not because he was making his Bollywood debut, but also because he was the son of the then Chief Minister of Maharashtra, the late Vilasrao Deshmukh.
When Ritesh thought- why is she ignoring me
Ritesh had said, ‘I went to Hyderabad for the Test shoot of Meri Kasam. I was told that the girl will also be there with whom you have to work. When I came out of the airport, I met Genelia’s mother. Then I looked at a long girl who was ignoring me in the other direction. I thought, why is she doing this’.
Genelia opened Raj
Genelia herself confessed this in an old interview to Bollywood bubble. He had said, ‘To be honest, I felt that Ritesh is rich, he will be a bad boys, like the sons of leaders are often. So I should not talk to them and I did not even do it ‘. He further told that the actor also tried to meet. But the actress kept distance. Ritesh wondered why Genelia does not talk to me. However, the mind wanted to talk to him. But, the fear of society was also haunting him. The actress was thinking that people did not think that I am talking to Ritesh because she is the son of a Chief Minister ‘. But when I talked to Ritesh, I understood that they are good people.

Never proposed each other
Genelia understood Ritesh and raised the hand of friendship and never looked back again. On The Kapil Sharma’s show, Genelia had told that both of them never proposed to each other. He had said- ‘Yes, we really became friendship, love, but we never proposed each other.’ Ritesh added further and said, ‘No…. Never, it was not needed. We understood each other, came in love and then when I get married, they have done it too. After dating for many years, the couple decided to marry on 3 February 2012.
Did Genelia D’Souza changed religion?
Both of them got married with two different customs and then extended the family further. The couple have two cute sons, Ryan and Rahil. Actually, Genelia D’Souza is from Christianity and Ritesh Marathi Hindu. Religion also could not create a rift in the love of both. Genelia D’Souza has not converted. Both of them married each other’s religion and traditions. Now both are also raising their children with secular and respectable approach.
Ritesh bowed after differences
Ritesh further said in this interview that Genelia and her very few fights. Both have differences but both never shout at each other. If there are differences between the two, then Ritesh takes the first initiative to convince Genelia.
