Riteish
Deshmukh
and
his
actress-wife
Genelia
Deshmukh
are
a
match
made
in
heaven!
From
being
best
friends
to
life
partners,
the
couple's
eternal
love
story
is
straight
out
of
a
Bollywood
movie.
One
of
Bollywood's
coolest
jodis,
Riteish
and
Genelia
complete
nine
years
of
marital
bliss
today
(February
3,
2021).
While
speaking
with
ETimes,
Riteish
opened
up
about
his
married
life
and
said,
"It's
been
a
wonderful
journey.
To
be
in
a
relationship
or
a
marriage
that
is
so
good
is
a
blessing.
We
have
known
each
other
for
19
years."
On
being
asked
about
what
keeps
their
relationship
strong,
the
Housefull
4
actor
replied,
"Genelia
and
I
keep
our
needs
and
wants
limited.
We
are
happy
with
all
that
we
have.
Once
your
circle
of
happiness
is
small,
you
feel
satisfied
and
content
easily."
Riteish
further
revealed
that
Genelia
has
added
a
structure
to
his
life.
He
was
quoted
as
saying,
"She
helped
me
better
my
food
habits.
I
used
to
eat
at
1
am
or
at
any
given
time,
but
today,
I
am
done
with
my
dinner
by
7
pm.
In
fact,
I
used
to
be
a
hardcore
non-vegetarian,
but
for
four
years,
I
have
been
a
vegetarian.
It's
been
nearly
eight
months
now
that
I
have
turned
vegan.
Also,
Genelia
has
given
my
life
a
structure.
She
has
taught
me
time
management.
I
didn't
know
a
day
could
have
so
much
time."
Awww,
we
are
all
hearts
for
these
two!
Riteish
and
Genelia's
first
meeting
was
for
the
test
shoot
of
their
debut
film
Tujhe
Meri
Kasam.
In
one
of
his
earlier
interviews
with
ETimes,
Riteish
had
opened
up
about
how
he
fell
in
love
with
Genelia
and
said,
"We
started
working
as
strangers,
then
began
understanding
each
other.
Off
the
sets
we
soon
became
best
friends.
I
would
discuss
architecture
with
her
while
she
would
discuss
college
and
exams
with
me!
The
beauty
of
a
relationship
is
when
you
get
used
to
a
person;
it
is
not
sudden.
It
is
just
a
process,
and
you
don't
realise
when
love
happens.
After
I
came
back
from
the
Hyderabad
schedule,
I
started
missing
her.
I
wondered
whether
it
was
right
to
call
her
or
not.
That
dilemma
lasted
for
a
few
days."
He
further
continued,
"There
was
no
great
realisation
of
love
overnight,
nor
were
there
any
great
declarations.
It
was
understood.
We
didn't
need
to
tell
each
other
anything.
We
were
together
for
days,
which
went
into
months
and
then
years."
Finally,
the
lovebirds
got
hitched
on
February
3,
2012.
The
couple
are
parents
to
two
boys,
6-year-old
Riaan
and
4-year-old
Rahyl.
