We all know the amount of love the couple share for each other. On January 24, 2019, their magical love-story was shared on the Instagram handle of Official Humans of Bombay. In the very own words of Patralekhaa, their story goes like this, “I saw him for the first time in LSD. I thought the weird guy he played was actually what he was like. My perception of him was tarnished! He told me later, that he first saw me in an ad & thought, ‘I’m going to marry her.’ It was so ironic!” (Also Read: Ajay Devgn's Strong Statements Against Harsh Trolling His Daughter Nysa Devgan Has Faced)
She further writes about that moment when they fell for each other, “Once we began working together–it was magic. The kind of passion he had was powerful & I couldn’t respect him any more than I did then! We spoke about our work, love for cinema, passions… I saw him through his struggles, never giving up. How could we not fall for each other? We didn’t officially go on dates, but we’d go for drives, movies, or just sit at home. We accompanied each other for auditions, just for support. All we needed was that understanding.”
She also shared how Rajkummar goes out of his way to make her feel special. She wrote, “He’d often go out of his way for me. Once he was late to see me, so he ran all the way from the airport to Juhu! Not only that, but when we weren’t earning much, he gifted me my favorite bag–it was so expensive! Years later, someone stole it in London! I called him sobbing–for me, it was about the memories. He’d bought it for me when he didn’t have much. Later, at our hotel, the exact same bag was waiting for me. These little things make me realise how lucky I am for him. And the best part is, he always says he’s the lucky one. Isn’t that what a relationship needs? To remind each other how grateful we are?” (You May Also Like: Abhinav Shukla's Befitting Reply To A Fan When Wife, Rubina Dilaik Was Trolled After Pulwama Attack)

Patralekhaa also shared about the beauty of their love, “He told me once that after I met his mom, she said, ‘I have a feeling she’s the last one I’m meeting.’ She was right–we’ve been together for 8 years. We’re equals–when an article said, ‘Rajkumar with his girlfriend, Patralekhaa’, he retweeted –‘Patralekhaa with her boyfriend Rajkumar.’ I can tell you this, when you find the one–through the fights, hurdles & chaos, you should never forget to let them know you love them. It doesn’t have to be with expensive gifts & dates–it can simply be with the way you hold them while they need it & when they don’t. For us, we don’t know what the future holds, but this, being together, is enough.”
In an interview with BollywoodLife, Rajkummar talked about getting married to Patralekhaa, he had said, “I think right now, we both are married to our work and we both are very seriously focusing on our work. So right now there is no time for marriage as such.” (Don't Miss: Neeti Mohan And Nihaar Pandya Finally Share Their Wedding Pics, Look Lovely As 'Just Married' Couple)
