On February 3, 2019, Genelia Deshmukh had penned down a long note for her darling hubby, Riteish Deshmukh to mark their seventh wedding anniversary. She had written, “Every girl has a certain perception of how they would want their life partner to be... I Honestly Didn’t... I had this most amazing partner who was my bestest friend, who was the shoulder, I always found when I needed to cry and who made me believe that no matter how tough life is, with us being partners we would take it on, in any form, in any way... That’s the man I eventually married and he never ever stopped being the reason for my smile... So I’m glad I never ever had a perception because the reality of living and breathing this wonderful man is all I ever needed to know... I Love you @riteishd ..Here’s to many more laughs together, to the zillion times we will wipe each other’s tears and pick each other up when either/or feels weak or simply to live together forever and ever... Happy Anniversary.” (Also Read: Sania Mirza And Shoaib Malik Host Son Izhaan's Second Birthday Bash, His Unique Cakes Are Unmissable)
