In today’s world, where loyalty and constancy are becoming a myth and finding the right one has actually become a task, it is obvious for us to be skeptical about love, relationships, and marriages. But, there are always those few chosen couples who reinstate our faith in love and institution of marriage and Ratna Pathak Shah & Naseeruddin Shah are one such couple. In fact, they are Indian theatre’s first couple of its kind and their love story is exciting, inspiring and definitely evokes trust and belief in our hearts as well.
One of the very prominent and finest actor-director in Bollywood, Naseeruddin Shah and Ratna Pathak, daughter of Dina Pathak, who is an actress par excellence, together make a couple that cinema lovers still look up to. This enduring couple makes us believe in love and a beautiful together forever concept even in this digital era and we can’t help but feel elated every time we see them together, beaming in each other’s presence even today.
Ratna participated in Satyadev Dubey’s Sambhog Se Sanyas Tak in which Naseeruddin was a part as well and during that period and time they spent together, they fell for each other and ever since then, it has always looked like this was a couple that was simply mean to be.
It wasn’t all hunky dory for them when they met; Naseeruddin was already married and was on the verge of separation. After six years of struggle and finalizing the divorce, Naseeruddin and Ratna Pathak finally married each other and got their well-earned happy ending. Two of the most refined and dynamic theatre artists of their time, Ratna Pathak Shah and Naseeruddin Shah have been a happily married couple and a blessed family ever since.
