Anniversaries are that time of the year when couples look back to their ‘happily ever after’ journey together and feel blessed for the presence of their partner in their life. Marriages are made in heaven. True. But marriages are built on earth. There is no book for us to follow, which can tell us about love and romance, but when it comes to our celebrities, we bet they could write one happily. Marriage keeps the ethereal love between a couple intact, which is why we believe in this institution so much.

14 years ago, on April 29, 2005, Shitty Ideas Trending co-owners, Chhavi Mittal and Mohit Hussein became each other’s forever and have been giving major relationship goals since then. With a lot of love and respect for each other, Chhavi and Mohit are living their journey together with two kids, one is their first child Areeza, the next one is SIT and the third one is on his/her way. Chhavi and Mohit had met in the most 'cliched' way, but how they got married is extremely 'non-clichéd'. Before we throw some light on the SIT founders’ love story, first things first.
On April 29, 2019, Chhavi Mittal and Mohit Hussein completed 14 years of togetherness and on this special day, the latter took to his Instagram handle to wish his lovely wife. Sharing a heartfelt message, Mohit wrote along with their couple picture, “14 years ago today, we set out on a journey together not knowing what is the destination going to be and still continue on our path relentlessly and with a lot of love and respect for each other. @chhavihussein has been more than just a wife to me, she continues to be the navigator of this journey guiding me through the good and not so good roads that we tread. Our third baby is on its way, it is an exciting phase for all of us, #Areeza being our first child and #SIT second, hopefully we as parents will be able to fulfill our roles to the best of our abilities. Thank you @sachin113photographer for this wonderful image #happyanniversary #anniversary #journey #lifetime #togetherness #married #couples #husbandwife #pregnant #pregnantwife #momtobe #dadtobe #sitian #love #respect”. Chhavi too, shared a picture of their holding hands, as her Instagram story and wrote, “This day, 14 years ago… Love you” atop it.
Coming back to Chhavi Mittal and Mohit Hussein’s love story, during their Shitty Ideas Trending series, Dolly Ki Shaadi, Chhavi had written a blog about how things happened between her and Mohit. Titled as “THE STORY BEHIND JAB MOHIT & I GOT MARRIED!”, Chhavi’s blog had stated, “As it happens, Mohit Hussein and I met the clichéd way for an actor or director to meet their respective beaus. On sets. But that's a story for another day. What's extremely non-cliché is the way we got married! Him being a Muslim and I being a Hindu, was a problem, but an even bigger problem was.. well.. like any other doted on daughter of the family, I was also too protected, and when my father met Mohit, he decided that he will grind him all the way to Sunday and if he endures all arrows thrown at him, then he derserves me!” (Also Read: Chhavi Mittal Posts Her Last Pregnancy Blog Before Her Delivery, Reveals That She Is 'Ready To Pop')

Revealing how Dolly Ki Shaadi is a recreation of what happened when Mohit met her parents, Chhavi Mittal’s blog continued, “The first scene of DOLLY KI SHAADI – S1 E3 is a recreation of what actually happened in a private meeting between my dad and Mohit. He counted various reasons (ridiculous, lame reasons) why Mohit should not marry me! "Her health is too bad", "she cannot cook", "she's an actress, don't trust her!". And the list goes on.. Dear Mohit quietly heard him out (he went on for close to an hour!) while making mental notes of each of the points he mentioned (there were many!) and when he was finally finished, Mohit went over each and every point and gave him his persepective of why that was not a good enough reason! The meeting must have lasted a little under 2 hours, but after the soliloquies from both ends finished, my dad passed his verdict with this final statement, "Is there a good place for dinner around?"”
How Dolly Ki Shaadi was inspired by their real-life love story, Chhavi Mittal had added, “So this was how the ice was broken with my dad, and this was his way of welcoming Mohit into the family. My mother, on the other, had her own agenda! Once again, a slightly over-the-top recreation of that is reflecting in the same scene, where Lovely Bua (Meenakshi Sethi) meets Saurabh (Anuj Rampal) for the first time. I remember my mother being nervous in the kitchen, and Mohit being nervous in the hall, while I was thoroughly enjoying their worried expressions when they both were asking me in their respective hiding places in hushed tones "Kya baat karoon main?". Mom was warm towards Mohit and had no problems with him as long as "kundali mil jaye". And what Rishi (Sukant Goel) says is exactly what Mohit had said at that time to me. "If the kundali doesn't match, I will change the time of birth and make sure it does because I want to marry you at any cost!" Well THANK GOD the horoscopes matched and that too with 32 points, and we are the living proof of no jhol there! DOLLY KI SHAADI is especially close to our hearts since it has the remnants of the beginning of an era in mine and Mohit's life. Some anecdotes, some humour, some life, that has been borrowed from our own lives.” (Also Read: Chhavi Mittal And Mohit Hussein Had A Fun-Pact With Daughter, Areeza Upon Naming Soon-To-Arrive Baby)
