“Just like meeting anyone for the first time. Interesting. It was actually when I was 16 and we were at a common family friends house for a concert by a sufi singer.

When asked about how Mira took up the mantle of motherhood at such a young age, Shahid said in an interview to Filmfare, “My understanding of her is that she is very mature, deep down. Otherwise she would not have been able to deal with all that has happened with her life. I mean she was just turning 21 when we got married.” The interviewer called Shahid a ‘cradle snatcher’ and the actor agreed. “Absolutely! You know, I am. I can’t runaway from it. So it is what it is,” he said.
Mira and Shahid were seen together at a restaurant in Mumbai with film director Abhishek Kapoor and his wife Pragya on Monday night for dinner. Mira was seen in a white shirt and black skirt while Shahid was seen in a blue sweatshirt.
