Sharing the picture on Sunday, Shabana wrote, “Made for each other mashallah.” The photograph showed her holding her husband’s arm as they smiled at the camera. Shabana was wearing a yellow saree that she paired with a colourful neckpiece and an ethnic black purse, while Javed was dressed in a striped blue kurta.

One fan wrote, “Lovely haircut. My favourite couple! You both are an ideal couple. Nazar na lagey (Let no evil eye spoil it).” Another commented, “My most favourite couple.”

While Javed Akhtar rarely posts on his Instagram account, Shabana often shares glimpses of their lives on her page. Recently, the actor shared a picture of herself working in Javed’s cluttered study, and revealed that her writer husband keeps so many objects on his desk that he hardly leaves any space for writing.

"Javed's study. Always so cluttered that he has to use a food trolley (peaking from right hand corner) to write on instead of his desk!!" she wrote. Instagram users responded by calling Javed a “genius,” saying that his cluttered desk represents his intellect.

Shabana will be next seen in the Paramount+ web series, Halo, in which she will be portraying Admiral Parangosky. The Steven Spielberg-produced series is an adaptation of the popular video game franchise of the same name and is set to release on March 24 this year.
