The news of Shahid Kapoor and Mira Rajput’s wedding came as a shocker for the actor’s fans. They are one of the cutest couples in B-Town and they have always given us major relationship goals. When the news of their marriage got out, everyone seemed to be stuck on two things- 1) that it was an arrange marriage and 2) there’s 14 year age gap between Shahid and Mira. Shahid in an interview with Hindustan Times said, “Mira is always able to give me another perspective and when I look back after coming out of a situation, I feel very glad that she said what she said to me. I always pull the experience card on her which she hates.”

If someone makes you happy and enriches your life, what’s the harm? I am 45 that doesn’t make me dead or someone who’s over the hill. I enjoy my life and feel happy about having such a special equation with a man younger than me. You have to forget the barriers and nurture relationships.”
