How This Mumbai Couple Defied A 20-Year Age Gap In Heartwarming Love Story

"I am 59, and my husband is 39. We thought that the age gap might be an issue, but it didn't stop us from getting closer to each other. Today, after three years of marriage, I can confidently say that age is just a number, and I am truly blessed to have Nikhil as my life partner.

My first husband ended our 28-year marriage and divorced me. He remarried just one month after our divorce. I fell into a deep depression and felt like ending my life. However, life had other plans for me. While volunteering for a social cause, I met Nikhil, who was already divorced.

Nikhil, 20 years younger than me, helped me cope with my depression. We fell in love but never expressed it due to our age gap, so we decided to stay friends. But life surprised me when Nikhil proposed. I told him it wasn't possible because of our age difference, but he didn't care.

When Nikhil told his parents about us, they rejected me within seconds. Meanwhile, my family was easily convinced and happy for me. After years of convincing his parents, we finally applied for the registration of our marriage. Surprisingly, both our families joined us and became part of our celebration.

We love spending time together. In the end, age is just a number. As we celebrate our third anniversary, we hope our love lasts forever."
