I’m Indian married to a maxican woman for 45 years- Kapil came to my wedding in 1979 - Kapil and Margaret have been our long time friends and are very nice couples- Rajesh and Lisa
I met Nirmala in graduate school in 1973. We married in 1976. I'm a Catholic from the US, and she is an upper-caste Hindu from southern India. I've never tried to make her do anything that she hasn't wanted to do, and I've tried to be supportive in all of her endeavors. We're looking forward to our 50th anniversary and beyond.
My late wife Barbara and I met at the company where we both worked. She was an American and I an Indian from the south. We were married for 25 years. She passed away due to complications of pneumonia. She was the best thing that happened to me. Religion didn’t matter to us. Her parents welcomed me with open arms. I miss Barbara very much.

LIVING BEING IS OUR RACE,MANKIND IS OUR RELIGION HINDU,MUSLIM,SIKH,CRISTAIN,THERE IS NO SEPARATE RELIGION ALMIGHTY GOD KABIR is the father of all souls that JESUS, MOHAMMAD, GURU NANAK, VEDH was telling in BIBLE, QURAN, GURU GRANTHA SAHEB KAAVEER in HINDU VEDA Mantra Sankhya 1400 Samveda Utarchik Adhyay no.12 Khand no. 3 Shloka no. 5 says that the Supreme God Kabir manifests on Earth to spread awareness about the correct spiritual knowledge by means of His Shabdavali: “Bhadra vastra samanya3vasaano mahaan kavirnivachnani shansan || Aa vachyasv chamvoH pooymaano vichakshano jaagrvirdevveetau|| 5|| Bhadra - vastra - samanya - vasaanH - mahaan - Kavir - nivachnani - shansan - aavachyasv - chamvoH - pooymaanH - vichakshanH - jagrviH - Dev - veetau|| Translation: (VichakshanH) Clever people (aavachyasv) through their speeches, instead of telling the true path of the way of worship of Purna Brahm, by directing towards the worship of others, in place of nectar, (pooymaanH) pus from a boil in the form of the worship of others [like, ghost-worship, Pitra-worship, worship of the three gunas {Rajgun-Brahma, Satgun-Vishnu, Tamgun-Shankar} and worship of Brahm-Kaal] (chamvoH) are respectfully making sip the wrong knowledge (bhadra) the supremehappiness-giving (mahaan Kavir ) Supreme God Kabir (vastra) in a body in an ordinary attire i.e. {the meaning of 'vastra' is 'attire' - in saint language, it is also called 'chola'.

He is Kabir, and firm in his purpose. In all Bible translations, the word Kabir has been translated as "Mighty" or "Great" whereas Kabir is the original name of Supreme God.

After attaining salvation that souls rest in peace in the eternal abode Satlok forever. The throne of God is in Satlok( ETERNAL PLACE) 😊😊 God Kabir met Jesus and took his soul to Satlok.

I am in the same situation with 2 kids and happily married to a Polish woman who I met in the USA.Being a Hindu and she being a Catholic is not a problem for us.Our kids are 33 and 28 are also well settled,professionals.She is 67 and I am 63 now
I have been married to my classmate from an MBA program for 35+ years. She is German/Irish American and I am from Chennai (parents from Andhra/Maharashtra). Things have worked out well in spite of being Catholic and Hindu, never had religion come in the way. 3 grown-up children and happy family.
A long, happy, successful marriage in the best institution developed by mankind for both spouses. The only drawback is that one spouse must predecease the other. May God bless you and give you strength in your loss.
Hey I’m sorry to hear about your partner of 52 years - that’s a very long time, natural to miss but remember what you had was precious and more than so many others ever have. Not that it makes your pain any less but I’m sending you courage in the face of your loss. I’ve heard that when we lose a loved one they are not here in the physical sense but our relationship continues on a different Plane - still revolving but differently - does that make sense to you? Or am I spouting platitudes? Lmk X
This reminds me of my Grandfather and Grandmother and my entire family. My grandparents were married with children in India during the 1940s. Our family resided in tea plantations. Our life was idyllic and special. Our whole family is mixed and celebrates both Hindu and Christian festivals. Respectful and observant of both worlds. Still is. ❤ This is a beautiful story and so is my family's life story. ❤
What a lovely couple. My son has just married inter racially and I want to be a mother in law who is remembered for my acceptance and love. Fortunately her parents are also very supportive too.
Where ever there is an Indian in relationship it’s meant for life!!! Indians respect relationships!!! They don’t fall In blind love that’s why their relationships are for life!!
That's usually the case. But there are exceptions. My Indian uncle is twice divorced and now married for the 3rd time. All of his wives were Americans.
@@mooo6747 you know then who wanted divorce because indians mostly never go for divorce.Now a times it is culture in US to marry and divorce for alimony.

Have known many interracial couples who have been married longer My brother ( a Tamil Brahmin) has been married to an American Christian for 47 years. Still going strong
How lovely to hear this charming couple talk about their life together. I myself Danish married to a South American sence some qualities and values are the most important to have good life together. Wish you the best of luck.
@@patilnaveenkumarreddy4059no this is perfect because Brahmins were brought in India by Muslims . Now he married a muslim ( didn't say she's arab though )

I married to South African white Dutch for 29 y, now a widowed. My heart got lost in India. Sokhom Prins, author, researcher, world activist, historian, influencer, chef. My memoir Love of Life - A Miraculous Story! is coming soon.
Greetings to you from Guyana. It's amazing to see this successful couple from diverse backgrounds lead such a blessed life of togetherness for over four decades. This is exceptional when compared in this modern age we're living in. I would think it has had to do with the upbringing of them both in their formative years. So it was that synergy of unconditionality that had made them compatible for each other. As a person of Indian origin certain values were instilled in me too. I wish them both longer life of health, happiness and just plain great time of being each other company. Thanks too to you Verona for creating these videos.
I am a south african indian, hindu. I am married to a canadian of greek/Scottish origan. He is christian. Both of us are in our second marriages. We have been married 20 years. I was married to a hindu according to parents, upbringing and culture. I went through a 29 year, terribly abusive marriage. Alcohol was a factor. I tried to keep my marriage vows because it was important to me. But when my children were ready to leave home for university, they felt that i wasnt safe and encouraged me to separate. My present interracial marriage has worked beautifully for 20 years.
I love the way these put each other and family first, and they want to remain geographically close to their daughters. That is a rare and beautiful thing and major blessing to the grandkids.
Very nice interview....charming couple with great values. Very good conversation between the host and the guests, the explanation by Margaret on the topic of PDA is excellent and appropriate. Wish them many more years of happiness.
For the last 20 years I have been married to my wonderful wife Thaiduong. I was born in Chicago in1977 to immigrant parents from India. I was raised Hindu Tamil Brahmin Iyer... except that I was raised in the USA, and I view myself as American. I have never held a passport from India...only the USA. In 2004, I married Thaiduong in Vietnam. At that time, she was my girlfriend of nearly 4 years. We are still married today, and resident in Arizona. Thaiduong was raised Roman Catholic, and as a person in Ho Chi Minh City of South Vietnamese Mekong Delta background. She immigrated to USA and became a USA citizen. We still love each other very deeply, and want to continue to be together. She is still Catholic and Vietnamese. I am still officially Hindu, but have adopted Buddhism, and of Indian background, but am American. So you can make it work. Just gotta be ready to learn. BTW, my in-laws in Vietnam love me, and have only good things to say about me.
Hindu - got it, that's your religious affiliation Tamil - got it, that's the mother tongue of your parents/you Brahmin Iyer - ok this is the caste. You know the meaning of caste. unlike religion and language, this one is so tricky. Why do you need to mention your caste? Do you have kids with your Vietnamese wife? Are they also Brahmin Iyer or Brahmin Iyernamese? No matter how many decades pass, how many countries we indians migrate to, this caste identity thing is not going away.
@@electrology who are you to curtail his thoughts? You are the one with the problem, not him. You could have easily chosen to ignore it and moved on, but no, you had to make it a point to comment and thrust your opinion here. You're being extremely disrespectful if you didn't realize. Tamil Brahmins are ETHNICALLY DIFFERENT to the rest of Tamilians, their culture and community is completely different, their rituals are different. The only thing they have in common with other Tamilians is the language Tamil and even that is so different that Brahmin Tamil could be called its own language. With such a DISTINCT ethnic background, why should he efface his identity so your snowflake heart wouldn't be offended somehow?
I AM MARRIED FOR 23 YEARS... AND I AM THANKFUL FOR MY WIFE FOR THE UNDERSTANDING AND JUST BEING THERE WHEN THINGS ARE DOWN... AND ALSO ME BEING THERE FOR HER WHEN THINGS ARE DOWN FOR HER...
It’s always so heartwarming to hear stories of strong, long lasting marriages. It cuts out all the negativity that we are surrounded by, and lets you see the glimmer of light in the darkness. I always feel a rush of joy when I see or hear of happy marriages and families. God bless! Hope you enjoy many, many more years of happy and supportive togetherness.
Pieces like this is not what we oftentimes see like we used to. Couples from different backgrounds sharing their story of their years of marriage. Should be awarded. Enduring alot and still close and sincerely recalling the years. Such blessings....something to recall in average marriages.
It's in Indian jenes wherever they live. Marriage means sacred ritual. Whatever may be the misunderstanding between husband and wife they live together till their last breath 😮
What a lovely and well-mannered couple, congratulations to both of you 🙏🏾 For the producer please add some photos to the edit, I would have loved to have seen pictures of them when they first met,over the years, of their parents and perhaps their children and grandchildren if they were comfortable with it. Also, the music was odd. If music was necessary, why not music of the year they first met in, to music of the sangeet and so on.
I love the way this couple accommodated eachothers religion. I guess being in California helped. Americans have experience getting along with people of different faiths and backgrounds. That's truly what makes America great. These guys were also patient and of similar minds and hearts ❤❤. Of course, employment and education help any relationship. Patience is a virtue too.
In indian culture ,we consider a marriage as scared union n try to retain the marriage at any cost n even though marriages become montonous ,but for the sake of children n their well being remain together n ultimately ,the couple in their ripe age become like sibling n can't survive without each other. But sadly its changing gradually.
Still waters run deep - exactly right. You almost want to tell those people who are desperately trying to prove to others with those public displays of affection to go, get a room.
Tolerance on catholic and hindu is possible but hindu and muslim rarely happens. I would like to ask this couple 1. if they are having any trouble getting their daughters marrier because of the interculture marriage. 2. In the beginning of your dating, Were you ever so concerned that the other person's family might never accept you. Is it such an important factor? Were either of you ever worried on not being accepted into the other person's family?
My parents were Hindu and Muslim. Married for 46 years when my Dad passed. There's was a very compatible marriage with a foundation of deep love that United them (they met each other in the 1950s and married in 1960). Both their kids went on to marry Hindus❤
I would love to see indian inter racial marriage divorce rates . It is probably the lowest out of any inter racial marraige types. Both indian women and men probably are less likely to ask for a divorce in these inter racial marraiges
Actually Indians try to hold their marriage with their only wife till the last phase until and unless relationships turn extremely sour and unbearable 😇
A well fulfilled life together... very understanding , loving and lovable couple.... really marriage is made in heavens and they meet somehow or other on the 🌍❤❤ 19:06
Educated people tend to stay together. They share same core values and very respectful to one another and also both supportive in-laws makes the union harmonious as well. Unfortunately for myself didn’t work out for me twice! I chose poorly. I hope to meet someone someday who values me and have some of these traits.
It's not actually that Indian men have that capacity to be with their wives on his last breath it's not about education they follow their indian parents patterns
These days interracial marriages is no head turner , sure in some orthodox communities it's frowned upon but just avoid those & live your lives as best as you can. We have such a limited time on earth that moments should be spent in emotional investment into a relationship instead of bed hopping looking for a fairy tale ending which isn't reality.
I m excited learning about international marriages of indians ... my wife Vashtee is from carrabean ... we were pen fruends... got married before 41 years in her country Trinidad and living in india since than ...
I am very happy to see you together. You are very inspiring to the youngsters who love to go astray. We are born to foster peace and harmony in the world.
Lovely video & lovelier couple. Well when Margaret & Kapil dated first, i was in Kindergarten in India, & forwarded this video to three of my friends from Kindergarten, who are now in the USA and have similar inter cultural marriages. Wishing Margaret & Kapil many more years of Love & Happiness. God Bless you Both. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Wat an incredibly gorgeous couple, this is a match made in heaven and lived in heaven! Rarely have i seen such bliss in a relationship over a period of 5 decades. Relationships go thru ups and downs, unfortunately decay also, but look at them, they joyful, blissful, truly madly in luv as if they have their ring ceremony coming up this weekend. U got to have v v good karma to get such a life. God bless them and may the good times last for the Nandas till eternity.
Im soo happy to listen to your story. You both are very lucky to meet each other and then take the life forward. Whereas my married live is a total falure, living alone now.
Tolerance of both religions is such a beautiful thing that keep you together.
Absolutely!
I hate the word tolerance in such cases; here it must be mutual love and mutual respect. You "tolerate" nuisance and bad habits..Well, since nobody is perfect, i guess, maybe, a dash of "tolerance" too her and there, now and then, wld be.. required too..
Indian religion and traditions are extremely difficult. So are Arab traditions.
So women who can kerp up with those are very strong

Greetings to you from Guyana. It's amazing to see this successful couple from diverse backgrounds lead such a blessed life of togetherness for over four decades. This is exceptional when compared in this modern age we're living in. I would think it has had to do with the upbringing of them both in their formative years. So it was that synergy of unconditionality that had made them compatible for each other. As a person of Indian origin certain values were instilled in me too. I wish them both longer life of health, happiness and just plain great time of being each other company. Thanks too to you Verona for creating these videos.
Wish you well too bro. 🙏🏻
*INDIAN MEN- NOTHING IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN FAMILY* ✌😎🇮🇳😂

great interview. would have loved to have seen a photo of the couple from 40-50 years ago

I am a south african indian, hindu. I am married to a canadian of greek/Scottish origan. He is christian. Both of us are in our second marriages. We have been married 20 years. I was married to a hindu according to parents, upbringing and culture. I went through a 29 year, terribly abusive marriage. Alcohol was a factor. I tried to keep my marriage vows because it was important to me. But when my children were ready to leave home for university, they felt that i wasnt safe and encouraged me to separate. My present interracial marriage has worked beautifully for 20 years.
I love the way these put each other and family first, and they want to remain geographically close to their daughters. That is a rare and beautiful thing and major blessing to the grandkids.
Truly blessed couple. In India we cherish the institution of marriage and make all the sacrifices needed to have a happy family.
Very nice interview....charming couple with great values. Very good conversation between the host and the guests, the explanation by Margaret on the topic of PDA is excellent and appropriate. Wish them many more years of happiness.
Love and respect for each other's feelings /self-identity ❤❤❤, and they're just lucky having each other, sincerely...

Lovely couple they compliment each other and it is clear they worked it out.
Would have loved to see a picture of this couple when they were young together. All good anyway..
I have an uncle-aunt in the exact same situation, except they married in 1969 - so about 55 years now, and going strong.
Lovely story. God bless How honest they are. Love from India🇮🇳
Thank you for watching!
For the last 20 years I have been married to my wonderful wife Thaiduong.
I was born in Chicago in1977 to immigrant parents from India. I was raised Hindu Tamil Brahmin Iyer... except that I was raised in the USA, and I view myself as American. I have never held a passport from India...only the USA.
In 2004, I married Thaiduong in Vietnam. At that time, she was my girlfriend of nearly 4 years. We are still married today, and resident in Arizona.
Thaiduong was raised Roman Catholic, and as a person in Ho Chi Minh City of South Vietnamese Mekong Delta background. She immigrated to USA and became a USA citizen.
We still love each other very deeply, and want to continue to be together. She is still Catholic and Vietnamese. I am still officially Hindu, but have adopted Buddhism, and of Indian background, but am American.
So you can make it work. Just gotta be ready to learn. BTW, my in-laws in Vietnam love me, and have only good things to say about me.
What a beautiful story! Thank you for sharing this with us :)
Hindu - got it, that's your religious affiliation
Tamil - got it, that's the mother tongue of your parents/you
Brahmin Iyer - ok this is the caste. You know the meaning of caste. unlike religion and language, this one is so tricky. Why do you need to mention your caste?
Do you have kids with your Vietnamese wife? Are they also Brahmin Iyer or Brahmin Iyernamese?
No matter how many decades pass, how many countries we indians migrate to, this caste identity thing is not going away.
I can confirm that you are an artificial Hindu.
@@electrologywhy are you rattled. When christians mention Catholic, Protestant, pentecostal, thats fine. Muslims mention Shia, Sunni, Barelvi, Deobandi etc
@@electrology who are you to curtail his thoughts? You are the one with the problem, not him. You could have easily chosen to ignore it and moved on, but no, you had to make it a point to comment and thrust your opinion here. You're being extremely disrespectful if you didn't realize.
Tamil Brahmins are ETHNICALLY DIFFERENT to the rest of Tamilians, their culture and community is completely different, their rituals are different. The only thing they have in common with other Tamilians is the language Tamil and even that is so different that Brahmin Tamil could be called its own language. With such a DISTINCT ethnic background, why should he efface his identity so your snowflake heart wouldn't be offended somehow?
I AM MARRIED FOR 23 YEARS... AND I AM THANKFUL FOR MY WIFE FOR THE UNDERSTANDING AND JUST BEING THERE WHEN THINGS ARE DOWN... AND ALSO ME BEING THERE FOR HER WHEN THINGS ARE DOWN FOR HER...
It’s always so heartwarming to hear stories of strong, long lasting marriages. It cuts out all the negativity that we are surrounded by, and lets you see the glimmer of light in the darkness. I always feel a rush of joy when I see or hear of happy marriages and families.
God bless! Hope you enjoy many, many more years of happy and supportive togetherness.
Kapil and Margrate. Both are beautiful folks . I loved the discussion..❤❤
Pieces like this is not what we oftentimes see like we used to. Couples from different backgrounds sharing their story of their years of marriage. Should be awarded.
Enduring alot and still close and sincerely recalling the years. Such blessings....something to recall in average marriages.
Wonderful couple genuine. Respect for both families and each other.Intelligent and sensible blessed with lovely daughters/sons and grandkids too❤
It's in Indian jenes wherever they live. Marriage means sacred ritual. Whatever may be the misunderstanding between husband and wife they live together till their last breath 😮
It's genes
Thanks for correction 😊
As they say older wine gets better and better! Nice to hear some pearls of wisdom earned through experience!!

Both of them were straight forward.
We love them for being so candid and real!
Good to see foreign lady maintaining Indian tradition..and enjoying even in last stage ..
This is a lovely couple. Thank you for interviewing them.
Enjoyed the video very much.Their values n how they lived n brought their kids up is so great .A very well balanced couple.
This guy is sooo cool. Experience has taught him to know how to be in a successful marriage. Does not like stress😂😂
Enjoyed this story, as an Indian Guyanese.
Beautiful ❤❤..
I am super happy for both of them..
May my kids too live such a beautiful happy and long life as this couple, having had inter racial inter religious marriage.
What a lovely and well-mannered couple, congratulations to both of you 🙏🏾 For the producer please add some photos to the edit, I would have loved to have seen pictures of them when they first met,over the years, of their parents and perhaps their children and grandchildren if they were comfortable with it. Also, the music was odd. If music was necessary, why not music of the year they first met in, to music of the sangeet and so on.
Glad you enjoyed the video. Thank you for the feedback!
I love the way this couple accommodated eachothers religion. I guess being in California helped. Americans have experience getting along with people of different faiths and backgrounds. That's truly what makes America great. These guys were also patient and of similar minds and hearts ❤❤. Of course, employment and education help any relationship. Patience is a virtue too.
Not all. Some of them are extremely conservative about their religion.
I like how each other respects their religion.❤❤
Amazing to hear Margaret speak so highly about her in-laws
Wow I love Jane Austin movies and British detective series! Great to hear that!
There is a lot of love, respect,acceptance,understanding,space n the desire to find solutions for problems amicably in this relationship.
Hearty congratulations to you couple establishing an ideal relationship for all. God bless you for your commitment and conviction.
Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam ❤
World is One Family 🌍
How beautiful!
Happy to see a comment in my language.. kannada.. ❤
@@UshaRani-xz5vs Actually we all Indian feel proud when any of our language is mentioned anywhere because we are big family
In indian culture ,we consider a marriage as scared union n try to retain the marriage at any cost n even though marriages become montonous ,but for the sake of children n their well being remain together n ultimately ,the couple in their ripe age become like sibling n can't survive without each other. But sadly its changing gradually.
I would have liked to see their “ young” pictures

The answer is simple....Indian values.
Everytime he said: now you can tell what happened. We already knows why their relationship succeeded.
😂😂 true
What amazing couple
When some times people with same community get divorced with in few months
GOD BLESS YOU BOTH WITH MANY MORE YEARS OF TOGETHERNESS
Mr and Mrs Nanda. Awesome story 👏. God Bless you 🙏 Jai Sita Ram 🙏
🙏
So very true for a humble life three things should be avoided
In public ie display of wealth, display of love and display of religion.
I would love to see some photograps of mr mrs nanda when they were young and on their wedding day 😊😊...
Still waters run deep - exactly right. You almost want to tell those people who are desperately trying to prove to others with those public displays of affection to go, get a room.
Tolerance on catholic and hindu is possible but hindu and muslim rarely happens. I would like to ask this couple 1. if they are having any trouble getting their daughters marrier because of the interculture marriage. 2. In the beginning of your dating, Were you ever so concerned that the other person's family might never accept you. Is it such an important factor? Were either of you ever worried on not being accepted into the other person's family?
Why can’t their daughters find their own husbands? Why would they have any problem getting their daughters married?
My parents were Hindu and Muslim. Married for 46 years when my Dad passed. There's was a very compatible marriage with a foundation of deep love that United them (they met each other in the 1950s and married in 1960). Both their kids went on to marry Hindus❤
✌🇮🇳❤INDIAN MEN ARE VERY LOYAL
Are you Indian?
Not all
Fantastic editing!!!!! Toppp notch
Glad you liked it!!
Nice interview🎉
Thank you! Follow us for more.
I would love to see indian inter racial marriage divorce rates . It is probably the lowest out of any inter racial marraige types. Both indian women and men probably are less likely to ask for a divorce in these inter racial marraiges
That's true
Actually Indians try to hold their marriage with their only wife till the last phase until and unless relationships turn extremely sour and unbearable 😇
Wonderful ❤ … I liked Mr Kapil’s response on regrets around 26th min …. although all of it was good
A well fulfilled life together... very understanding , loving and lovable couple.... really marriage is made in heavens and they meet somehow or other on the 🌍❤❤ 19:06
Lovely couple. May God bless them. Good and formative interview.
Thanks for watching
Educated people tend to stay together. They share same core values and very respectful to one another and also both supportive in-laws makes the union harmonious as well. Unfortunately for myself didn’t work out for me twice! I chose poorly. I hope to meet someone someday who values me and have some of these traits.
Dr, Elizabeth don't be sad, you will meet your right better half soon. My best wishes for your successful future.
🤍 Sunny. 🙏🏻
It's not actually that Indian men have that capacity to be with their wives on his last breath it's not about education they follow their indian parents patterns
Understand is most important thing in life 💕 I hope you get soon a better partner
Beautiful......such tolerance and respect!
It's ALL about KINDNESS and RESPECT. Support each other, be present. LOVE is the result of it. And it endures all.
Lovely, true companions .bless u ❤

These days interracial marriages is no head turner , sure in some orthodox communities it's frowned upon but just avoid those & live your lives as best as you can. We have such a limited time on earth that moments should be spent in emotional investment into a relationship instead of bed hopping looking for a fairy tale ending which isn't reality.
I m excited learning about international marriages of indians ... my wife Vashtee is from carrabean ... we were pen fruends... got married before 41 years in her country Trinidad and living in india since than ...
Had been married to an Asian happily for 58 years until the end if his life.
We need more interracial relationships
Dei dei dei 😂
I love it
I am very happy to see you together. You are very inspiring to the youngsters who love to go astray. We are born to foster peace and harmony in the world.
Lovely video & lovelier couple.
Well when Margaret & Kapil dated first, i was in Kindergarten in India, & forwarded this video to three of my friends from Kindergarten, who are now in the USA and have similar inter cultural marriages.
Wishing Margaret & Kapil many more years of Love & Happiness.
God Bless you Both.
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Thank you for your kind words!
Wat an incredibly gorgeous couple, this is a match made in heaven and lived in heaven! Rarely have i seen such bliss in a relationship over a period of 5 decades. Relationships go thru ups and downs, unfortunately decay also, but look at them, they joyful, blissful, truly madly in luv as if they have their ring ceremony coming up this weekend. U got to have v v good karma to get such a life. God bless them and may the good times last for the Nandas till eternity.
I'm so educated listening. From new Zealand 🇳🇿 😊
Nice one, Kapil to summarise the solution to marriage longevity is diamonds, just kidding. Bless you both👏👏👏
Wow! What amazing, inspirational "individuals / couple "
We agree!
Your both life will be an inspiration to us all. 🙏
No old pictures? Are they better looking now?
