Madhuri Dixit on the tough days of her marriage

Being partner with a medical professional isn’t easy because of their uncertain work timings. And Madhuri also faced that during the initial phase of her marriage. Talking about it on her husband’s YouTube channel, she shared, “It’s tough because of the kind of time you guys have to keep. Whether it’s day night and the call schedules, sometimes your every other day call, sometimes you are on like maybe skip one day and you are on call.”

Madhuri on managing the kids and family

Since Dr Nene was out on field, sometimes even missing major moments, Madhuri had to take up the role of the homemaker. She took care of the house and their kids, Arin and Ryan, on her own and had everything run smoothly. Discussing that, she said, “It’s hard because then you are the one who is looking after the kids, taking them to school, getting them back and stuff like that. Also, the timings, there might have something important happening but you are not there, because you are in the hospital looking after someone else. Sometimes I might be sick and you have to take care of someone else. Those are the things.”

However, in spite of all the challenges, Madhuri Dixit said she is very proud of her husband. She loves his patience and the way he fought for his patients. The actress even said that she lived her best life post marriage. She added, “After I got married, I lived my life because we went out, we travelled a lot and we did a lot of adventure sports which I never did earlier. It just enriched my life and made me a better person. It also gave me a flight of fancy sometimes. Having a supportive spouse like this, who loves you and cares about you regardless of what happens, is critical to the journey. Both of us have very challenging careers.”
