One year ago, today, Sonam Kapoor and Anand Ahuja married as per Sikh tradition in Mumbai amidst huge fanfare. Reflecting on the one year they've spent as a married couple, Anand Ahuja wrote an emotional stirring note for his actress wife. On Instagram he wrote: "Today, to reflect on one year of marriage and three years being together - nothing could be more of a blessing than to have your life partner be your best friend and also be the person that is supportive but pushes you to be better... to be the person that is unconditionally loving but will tell you when you're wrong ... and to be the person that will lead you into and through your fears - not allowing you to run away from them. Happy Anniversary to my love, Sonam Kapoor... you're my guiding star!"
Anand Ahuja, a sneakers enthusiast and the owner of popular sneaker brand VegNonVeg, shared the note along with several "#shoefies" he took with Sonam Kapoor over the years. "I love shoes (and you KNOW I love shoes) but because the idea of looking down reminds me to stay present, grounded and most importantly grateful," he wrote.
Here's Anand Ahuja's post:
Later in the day, he posted a picture of them taken when they were dating and he wrote: "Today we celebrate not only 1 year of marriage but 3 years of being 'boyfriend-girlfriend'."
