Shahid Kapoor graced YouTuber, Ranvir Allahbadia’s podcast and opened up about his equation with his wife, Mira Kapoor. The actor revealed that marriage was the first big shift in his life, and then parenthood changed him. He shared that since he had got married in an arranged set-up, he and Mira didn’t know each other well before deciding to get married. Talking about how marriage has changed him, Shahid said:
“The best times in your life are when you’re thinking of others, that’s what marriage teaches you… Mine was an arranged marriage. It wasn’t a love marriage, or friends who’ve known each other for a long time choose to settle and live their lives together. It was none of those things. It was an arranged marriage. We met all of 10 times before we got married.”
Further in the interview, when Shahid was asked why he chose to marry Mira, the doting husband said that it was not him but Mira, who had chosen him. Shahid mentioned that he and Mira have an age difference of 13 and a half years and revealed that they didn't get the chance to meet and know one another. Adding that he and Mira were meant to be together, Shahid said:
“I didn’t choose her. Maybe you should ask why she chose me. I was 13-and-a-half years older than her. We met through family, and we were unassuming enough to be open to meeting each other. We got along from the time we met, and it just happened. It was meant to happen. When I look back even I wonder, ‘Yeh kaise ho gaya?'”
