Mumbai: Gorgeous actress Genelia D’Souza made a special place in the hearts of people with her debut film Tujhe Meri Kasam, also starring her husband Riteish Deshmukh. The bubbly beauty celebrates her birthday today.
Genelia was born August 5, 1987 in Mumbai. She is married to actor Riteish Deshmukh. Genelia has rarely appeared in films after marriage. On the occasion of her birthday, let’s tell you some special unknown things related to the evergreen beauty.
In 2003, a flirtatious girl, Genelia made her Hindi debut film with her actor-husband Riteish Deshmukh. After this, Genelia went on to work in many other films including Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na, Chance Pe Dance, Force and Tere Naal Love Ho Gaya. Apart from Hindi, Genelia has also appeared in Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada and Marathi films.
Genelia first met Ritesh Deshmukh at Hyderabad Airport when his father Vilasrao Deshmukh was the Chief Minister of Maharashtra. Genelia ignored Riteish for the first time as she felt that being the son of a chief minister, Riteish’s behavior would be domineering type. This was revealed by Riteish in an interview.
When Genelia met Riteish on the set of the film, the two became friends. Riteish returned home after shooting in Hyderabad, but unconsciously started missing Genelia. This is where the love story between the two started. Genelia then worked with Riteish in Masti. The relationship between the two had started from the time of the first film Tujhe Meri Kasam, but they did not let the media know about it.
Riteish and Genelia wanted to get engaged after the first film but Riteish’s father Vilasrao Deshmukh was not ready for it. Eventually, after a nine-year long relationship they got married February 3, 2012. In November 2014, Riteish became father of a son and now her life revolves around the son, Riaan and their second son, Rahyl, who was born June 1, 2016.
