Actress Genelia Deshmukh recently shared a heartfelt moment with her husband, actor Riteish Deshmukh, emphasizing that their love doesn’t need a specific day like Valentine’s to be celebrated. The couple, who have been together for 23 years, continue to cherish their journey together.
Taking to Instagram Stories, Genelia posted a cozy snapshot of the two. In the picture, Riteish appears to be fast asleep while holding her close, while she beams with joy as she captures the selfie.
"Who needs Valentine's Day when we have 12th Feb @riteishd? 23 years and counting… and still sneaking in pictures for keeps," she captioned the post.
For those unfamiliar with their love story, Genelia and Riteish first crossed paths on the sets of their debut film, Tujhe Meri Kasam. Their friendship gradually blossomed into love, and after nine years of dating, they tied the knot on February 3, 2012.
The couple welcomed their first child, a son named Riaan, on November 25, 2014, followed by the birth of their second son, Rahyl, on June 1, 2016.
Beyond her personal life, Genelia has been making strides in the entertainment industry. Speaking at the latest season of the World Pickleball League, she opened up about her aspirations in the world of OTT.
With an extensive background in theatre and a career spanning multiple film industries long before the pan-India movement gained traction, Genelia has always embraced diverse opportunities.
When asked about her potential foray into OTT series, she told IANS, “I would love to. For me, whether it’s short-format or long-format, what truly matters is what I can bring to my audience. I have always been open to all kinds of work. I started doing South films way before it became a trend, and I take immense pride in that.”
She further added, “I’ve worked in Bollywood as well as the South film industry. I love films as a medium, whether long-format or short-format, but I am definitely looking forward to exploring long-format content in the future.”
