My parents had a very troubled marriage: Ranbir - Page 6

A designer by profession Riddhima Kapoor Sahni, tied the knot with Bharat Sahni, a Delhi business man in 2006, and the couple were blessed with a baby girl last year. Riddhima belongs to one of the oldest families in the Indian film industry and is the daughter of Bollywood sweethearts Rishi and Neetu Kapoor.

Having turned down offers to join the film industry, Riddhima chose to pursue a career in fashion. Bestowed with beauty and elegance, Riddhima is considered to be a fashionista for her contemporary style and has walked the ramp for many renowned designers like Suneet Verma and Surily Goel.

Bharat Sahni, an alumnus of Modern School, Vasant Vihar, completed his Bachelor of Business Administration from Ohio State University, USA. In 2002, Bharat joined the family business of textiles started by his late grand- father, RL Sahni, which was amongst the first dyeing and printing mills to be set up in North India.

Bharat loves spending time with his wife and feels that playing with Samara is his greatest stress buster after an exhausting day at work. "Our lives have completely changed after I gave a birth to Samara", says Riddhima.

Going back to her college days, Riddhima remembers the first time when she met Bharat through a common friend. "Our story started in the year 1997 when I met Bharat in London. Then, in 2001, I again met Bharat in a wedding in Mumbai and that's when we really got to know each other and thereafter, we started seeing each other. We dated for about five years, and after coming back from London, I introduced Bharat to my parents", adds Riddhima.

Riddhima grew up thinking of an ideal husband and today after spending six years; she proudly says that there couldn't be anyone better than him. "He is the one I always dreamt of. He is a mixture of everything, a real sweetheart and I am very lucky to have him", adds Riddhima.

Riddhima is a down to earth person who feels that "Love is selfless, unconditional and forever and all I can say is that I have got the love of my life".

Describing some special moments or the sweetest thing that Bharat has done for her, the smiling beauty says, "Everything that he does is straight from the heart. Though, he is not that romantic, the little things he does are very touching".

Riddhima who feels that marriage has brought out the best in her says, "It feels great when you are married to a person who loves you more than you do, it is the most beautiful feeling. Like every couple we had own ups and downs in our relationship and have had our biggest highs and greatest lows. We have had fights but since Samara was born, we have got closer all the more", smiles Riddhima adding that it depends who makes up first after a fight, however, the one who starts a fight, initiates first.

What kind of wedding did you have?
