Bollywood’s newest wedded pair, Pulkit Samrat and Kriti Kharbanda, have once again become the talk of the town after the actress shared an endearing post on her Instagram, capturing a very special moment that tugged at the heartstrings of their fans. The social media update showcased Pulkit Samrat, embodying the role of a doting husband, as he took to the kitchen to prepare his very first meal, affectionately referred to as ‘Pehli rasoi’, for his beloved wife Kriti. Followers were treated to a glimpse of this homemade sweet halwa, stirring not only the pot but also stirring the sweetness of marital bliss.
The pictures posted carried a sense of raw emotion, and Kriti’s caption did all but confirm the love and sentiment behind them. She revealed her renewed sense of love upon witnessing Pulkit’s culinary attempt, describing her emotions as falling in love all over again. With what one might call the simplicity of love, Kriti detailed Pulkit’s response to her light-hearted tease about the tradition usually being the bride’s to conduct the ‘Pehli rasoi’. Charming his way into progressive hearts, he rebuffed the stereotype with, “that’s so silly, we’ve both decided to share equal responsibility in this relationship.” His reasoning was as clear as their love – since Kriti had cooked for their Delhi family, it was only natural for him to do so for their family in Bangalore.
Engulfed in emotions, Kriti’s accompanying caption failed to hide her overwhelmed state, as she refers to Pulkit as ‘sabr ka phal’, meaning the sweet fruit of patience, a nod to their relationship’s journey and her belief that waiting for him was worth every moment. Despite admitting to the picture quality being affected by her emotional state, she wanted to share the touching moment with the world.
The coupling of Pulkit and Kriti is not just a merger of two individuals but one that embodies an equal partnership. Known for their vivacious personalities on screen, the couple has managed to create a narrative of mutual respect and shared responsibilities off-screen, post their enchanting nuptial celebration at the ITC Grand Bharat, Manesar, set amidst the scenic Aravalli Range. In a delightful demonstration of equality, they have been shedding light on their post-marriage festivities and life through shared moments.
The chronicle of their love story is as mesmerizing as any reel romance. Both hailing from the capital city of Delhi, their choice for a wedding venue near their familial roots speaks volumes about their attachments and values. Since becoming a couple, their public sharing of moments solidifies the idea that celebrity lives, while lived under a spotlight, are driven by the same desires, aspirations, and tender moments that define relationships universally.
The authenticity with which they showcase their life speaks to a larger narrative – an emerging trend where gender roles in relationships are being openly renegotiated and shared, echoing the evolution of societal norms in contemporary India. These refreshing glimpses into the personal lives of celebrities not only humanize them but also serve to inspire a more open-minded approach towards traditional practices.
Pulkit Samrat and Kriti Kharbanda’s recent marriage has been an amalgamation of grandeur and intimacy, fashioning a beautiful tapestry that captures the essence of a modern fairytale– embracing change while honoring tradition. As they continue to share their journey with the world, one sweet halwa at a time, their message is clear: real love is about partnership, equality, and the simple joys of being together.
