“Of course we talk about our work at home with each other. Our work is a big part of our lives. I love taking his insight on things, he lives the vice versa. We share whatever is happening in our professional lives, like my scripts, he’s the first person I want to share everything with anyway. If there’s even a work meeting, I tell him everything. It gives me perspective,” says the 37-year-old, who is currently working on her next film Jatadhar.

It’s said that falling in love is easy- it’s staying in it that requires hard work. Ask Sonakshi if she feels it holds any truth, and she replies, “When we were dating, we used to become best friends and bi**h about each other, to each other! Honestly, it’s been as easy as falling in love. With the right person, there’s a great understanding about what relationships involve. We don’t get rattled by the hard times and don’t avoid uncomfortable conversations.”

And how do they approach posting about their lives on social media? “It’s not only about the couples, everybody is posting what they want to portray their lives as. We are happy to share our happiness with others. The beauty of it is you post what you want to, not each and every detail of your life,” she ends.

    Rishabh Suri

    Rishabh Suri is an Assistant Editor, film critic, and professional overthinker of plot points. He writes for HT City, keeping pace with an industry where news cycles expire long before the popcorn gets cold. He completed his graduation in English Honours from Kirori Mal College, followed by a Master’s degree in English Literature-effectively training his brain to over-analyse classic texts before applying those exact same skills to 3-hour Bollywood blockbusters. He got into the profession when he had barely graduated from college and has been at HT ever since. At HT, Rishabh reviews films with a simple rule: skip the dense academic jargon and get straight to the point. Beyond reviews, as Assistant Editor, he helps navigate the broader circus of showbiz, tracking everything from OTT shifts to sudden box office panics. In a beat driven by loud PR machinery and carefully scripted answers, Rishabh prefers cutting through the noise to focus on how stories get made and why trends shift. When he isn’t writing against a deadline, he is usually sitting in a dark theater, compulsively memorising dialogues. For Rishabh, analysing movies isn't just a day job- it’s a habit he couldn't turn off even if he tried.Read More
