Farhan Akhtar and his wife Shibani Dandekar spoke openly about their relationship in Rhea Chakraborty's podcast. They said that both of them went for couples therapy just a few days after marriage. They feel that this makes their relationship even stronger.
What is couples therapy?
In today's busy life, couples are not able to give much time to each other. Many times they hesitate to share things with each other. Due to which there is a situation of estrangement between the two. The result of which is that they start fighting. In such a situation, to remove this bitterness, couples often go for couples therapy. In this therapy, the problems of the couple are solved with the help of experts. Every issue related to breakup, communication issues, misunderstanding and private moments is discussed between them, so that the estrangement between the two is removed.
Did you start couples therapy before or after engagement?
Shibani Dandekar, while talking to Rhea Chakraborty, said, 'I think we started doing couples therapy about six months before or after our engagement. It was not to understand each other. Rather, it was something that seemed like a smart thing to do.'
Our therapist was shocked
He said, 'We got married on Monday. After this, we went for couples therapy on Wednesday. I remember that as soon as we went in, the therapist was surprised to see us. He said, 'Why are you people here? You got married just 24 hours ago?'
Sometimes I did not understand what to say
Shibani Dandekar said, 'Going to therapy is a bit like going to the gym. She said, many times during the therapy session, we both see each other and we have nothing to talk about. Also, there are days when he needs more time than normal.'
