Farhan Akhtar and Shibani Dandekar reveal going for couples therapy

Shibani said, "We started doing couples therapy I think about six months before or after we got engaged. It wasn't one person convincing the other. It was like this is something that sounds like a smart thing to do. We got married on a Monday. Our signing was on a Monday and our next scheduled appointment was on a Wednesday. I remember we walked in and our therapist was like ‘Why are you guys here? You just got married like 24 hours ago?'"

She added, "It's like going to the gym. You have to keep working on it. So, there are times when we go for sessions and it's every couple of weeks and sometimes we go in there and we just look at each other and we're like we have nothing to talk about. There are days where we go in and we were like we are going to need longer than an hour because let me just tell you some things about this guy right here. So, there are those days as well. There are times when we maybe get into a fight at home and we know we've got to see our therapist on Wednesday. So, we will just wait or I will try and wait. I want to get into it right now and he'll be like ‘Let's just wait and discuss it on Wednesday'."
