After ending his marriage with Adhuna, Farhan started dating Shibani Dandekar and after a few years they got married. Recently, Shibani shared some interesting things about her and Farhan’s relationship.
Shibani and Farhan took couples therapy before marriage
Farhan Akhtar and Shibani Dandekar recently appeared on Rhea Chakraborty’s podcast. During this, the couple revealed that they took couples therapy after their engagement and even 24 hours after their marriage. Shibani told, “I think we started doing couples therapy about six months before or after the engagement. It was not to convince one person to convince the other. It was something that seemed like a smart thing to do.”
Couple therapy was taken even two days after marriage
Shibani Dandekar joked that she and Farhan had made an appointment just two days after their wedding, and said that even the therapist was stunned to see this. Shibani said, “We got married on Monday. We signed on Monday and our next scheduled appointment was on Wednesday. I remember we walked in and our therapist said ‘Why are you guys here? You just got married 24 hours ago?'”
Shibani Dandekar explains why couples therapy is important
Shibani Dandekar further explained that going for therapy is a bit like going to the gym and one has to keep working at it. She mentioned that there are days during the sessions when she and Farhan just look at each other and have nothing to talk about, and also, there are days when they need more time than usual.
The couple waits for Wednesday to end the fight
Shibani said, “Many times we get into a fight at home and we know that we have to meet our therapist on Wednesday. So, we will just wait or I will try and wait. I will also want to resolve it at home but Farhan says let’s wait and discuss it on Wednesday.”
