Anurag Kashyap, Shubhra Shetty open up about age gap, marriage
Anurag Kashyap is a famous movie maker in Bollywood.
He has a girlfriend named Shubhra Shetty, who once helped him at his movie company.
They have been together for almost ten years.
Anurag is 53 years old, and Shubhra is in her 30s.
Some people were unkind about the age difference, which made Anurag feel conscious about it at first.
In a new interview, the couple talked about their love story for the first time together.
Anurag said that before he met Shubhra, he did not care much about his life, but now he feels he has found something worth living for.
He became emotional when Shubhra remembered those words.
Shubhra says she does not believe in marriage, but Anurag says he is happy just to be with her.
You do not always need a wedding to show someone you love them.
Anurag Kashyap and Shubhra Shetty discussed their relationship together for the first time in an interview with Janice Sequeira.
The couple, together for nearly a decade, have faced scrutiny and age shaming over their age gap; Anurag is 53 and Shubhra is in her 30s.
Anurag teared up as Shubhra recalled the moment he said he had found 'something worth living for' for the first time in his life.
Shubhra said she doesn't believe in marriage, while Anurag said he is happy to be with her and never wants to lose what they have.
Anurag was previously married to editor Aarti Bajaj and actor Kalki Koechlin, and recently directed Bandar starring Bobby Deol.
