"In my life, when I first met Sunita, 50 years ago⦠When I met her, obviously I was not doing very well financially. She would take care of a lot of things, and that's how we shared the load. She stepped forward to share the load where money was concerned. It's not only about doing household jobs. There were times when I couldn't afford certain things, but I didn't have to tell her. She would automatically⦠travelling, going out for meals, sometimes we'd go to a normal restaurant, sometimes we'd go to a slightly better restaurant when we were dating each other. Automatically, she knows that of course I don't have the money to pay the bill. So, she quickly slips some money out of her bag, and before I can come to know, she's already paid the bill." He reminisced.
To which daughter Sonam Kapoor said, "She still pays the bills sometimes."
"Now she's taking revenge⦠That understanding has to be there between partners, friends, and especially husbands and wives. When you share the load without making it obvious, and without making the other person feel about it, that's wonderful." Anil Kapoor added.
