Sudha Murty also revealed how her husband failed to impress her father after meeting him for the first time. , “He arrived two hours late to meet my father for the first time as his taxi broke down. My father was asking me what he does and other questions. And he came and told him that he wanted to join politics and open an orphanage. My father always thought that I was a prize because at that time not many women did engineering. And he came late thinking he would impress my father,” she revealed.

Talking about their compatibility, the author revealed that they are very different from each other but always try to find a “compromise zone” in their relationship.

"This is where we have a difference of opinion. We are opposites, but opposites attract, so we find a compromise zone," she added.

The couple eventually tied the knot and had two children: Akshata Murty, businesswoman and wife of former British PM Rishi Sunak, and Rohan Murty, an entrepreneur.
