Riteish Deshmukh Reveals Why Wife Genelia D'Souza, Also His First Co-Star, Didn't Speak To Him Initially

New Delhi: Riteish Deshmukh and Genelia D'Souza's debut film Tujhe Meri Kasam has completed 15 years today. Hence, the actor posted multiple tweets about the film and revealed how his life changed after its release and also, why Genelia didn't speak to him (initially) while filming the movie. "Genelia didn't speak to me for the first two days during the shoot of the film because my father was the Chief Minister of Maharashtra then," wrote Riteish, who is now happily married to his first co-star. Later, he mentioned that with the release of Tujhe Meri Kasam, Riteish, who was an architect earlier, became an actor and Genelia became his 'Baiko' (Marathi term for wife).

(Adorable, aren't they?)

Genelia, 30, and Riteish, 39, married in 2012, after dating for over eight years. The couple are parents to sons - Riaan, 3, and Rahyl, 1. Apart from Tujhe Meri Kasam, Riteish and Genelia have co-starred in Masti and Tere Naal Love Ho Gaya, which released in 2012 (the year in which they got married).

A couple of years ago, Riteish had revealed an interesting part about their love story and how it began. "Climax of TMK -@geneliad had to slap me-I insisted it 2 b real- 2nd take was OK but i again insisted for 4 more takes. The only time i was ever hit or slapped in my life. My jaw still hurts. That time I thought I should marry this girl," he had tweeted.
