Friendship is the most important ingredient while cooking the yummiest dish called a happy marriage. Couples who cannot laugh with each other or share a silly joke without any hesitation knows nothing about the importance of friendship. For a happy and a long marriage, you need to treat your 'better-half' as a 'best friend'. Every day becomes a happy one as you look forward to spending time with the most favourite person in your life. And Bollywood actress, Sonam Kapoor Ahuja shares an exactly similar relationship with her husband, Anand S Ahuja.

It is said that marriage changes our perspective on love, but, in reality, it is not the marriage that changes love but our attitude towards it. Sonam and Anand have redefined love for all of us when they had stolen each other's name (officially and made it trend amongst the new couple) after their grand wedding in May 2018. While changing a name after marriage is a common thing for a woman to do, Anand had made quite a stir when he had changed his name to 'Anand S Ahuja'. In that moment, he had proved to the world the real meaning of love.

On May 8, 2020, Sonam and Anand will be completing two-years of togetherness. However, Anand yet again proved that he is the best husband as he gave an early surprise to his wife, Sonam. The actress took to her Instagram handle and shared an Instagram story of Anand's gift which was a Nintendo Switch with her favourite games on it, including Legend of Zelda and Mario Kart. She captioned her Instagram story as "@anandahuja knows me too well… Love you so much." Take a look at it below:
Earlier, in an interview with the Filmfare, Sonam had shared how her friends had tricked her into meeting Anand during the promotions of her film, Prem Ratan Dhan Paayo in 2015. She had revealed, "My friends were trying to set me up with Anand’s best friend. That’s how I met him. The first time I met Anand was while I was busy with the promotions of Prem Ratan Dhan Payo (2015). One evening my friends conned me into visiting a bar at the Taj. I went there quite irritated. When I reached there, I realised my friends had called these two-three boys whom I had no interest in meeting. I was like, ‘I don’t want to date anybody. I don’t believe in marriage and all this nonsense’. I saw Anand and his friend. His friend was tall like me, liked reading like me and was a huge fan of Hindi movies. He was an educated and nice guy. But he reminded me too much of my brother Harsh (Kapoor). I was like, ‘Dude, he’s Harsh. I’m not going to date this guy’."
She had further added, "Sometimes, people believe that when they have similar interests, they can be together. No one would think of Anand and me together because Anand is totally different. He had no idea that Anil Kapoor was my father. I ended up speaking to Anand… the whole evening. Anand was trying to get me to talk to his friend… like being the middle man. But we ended up talking more. Then one day I got a Facebook request from Anand saying, “Hey! Are you still single? Because so and so is still single and if you’re ever in London, please connect with him.” That message came at 2:30 am. I messaged him saying that first you shouldn’t be messaging me so late in the night. I’m like a school teacher in matters like these. Don’t mess with me so late in the night. And if the friend is interested then he should message me himself. Why are you messaging me? That’s how the conversation started. We began talking on the phone. Then we met. Two weeks later, we were talking on the phone when I asked him, “Do you still want me to talk to your friend?” He said, “No, No! Not at all. Talk to me. I’m keeping you for myself."
