Emraan Hashmi married Parveen Shahani in December 2006 after a six-and-a-half-year relationship.
Emraan Hashmi's on-screen persona may have created a certain image of him in our minds, but in reality, he is quite the opposite (which also proves how brilliant an actor he is). He is a one-woman man, deeply devoted to his childhood love, Parveen Shahani. And their love story isn’t really filled with Bollywood-style drama but is something even more beautiful— simple but built on an unbreakable bond that has grown only stronger with time.
The couple tied the knot in 2006 after years of being together. Life, however, hasn’t always been easy for them. But instead of breaking them, the tough times have only made them stronger. They have fought the battle together, proving that love is not just about the good days but about standing by each other through every storm.

Born on March 24, 1979, the actor celebrates his 46th birthday today. On this occasion, let's learn about their fairytale-like love story that may inspire everyone.
Emraan and Parveen's journey began long before the glitz of Bollywood touched Emraan's life. They were a high-school couple, and their bond strengthened over the years, with both supporting each other's aspirations. Parveen provided a grounding influence in Emraan's life and career. And despite his rising fame and the often-intrusive nature of showbiz, their relationship remained steadfast, characterized by deep understanding and support.
After over six years of courtship, Emraan and Parveen tied the knot on December 14, 2006. The wedding was an intimate affair, attended by close friends and family, reflecting their preference for privacy.
The actor has shared in several of his interviews that Parveen's relatives weren’t supportive of their decision to tie the knot, particularly because of his on-screen image. However, they stayed together and convinced everyone in the family.

Speaking about his love language, the actor shared in an interview, "I am a lousy lover off-screen. Believe me. I am not at all romantic. After I married Parveen, I have not given her expensive gifts nor have I taken her for candlelight dinners."
The couple welcomed their son, Ayaan Hashmi, on February 3, 2010. Emraan embraced fatherhood with enthusiasm. He once remarked about his son, "My friend, my superhero," describing the bond they share.

In 2014, their world was shaken when Ayaan was diagnosed with a serious illness at the age of four. This period tested their resilience, but together, they overcame the challenges with courage and optimism. Emraan often expressed gratitude for the support they received, stating, "It has been quite a journey. But the faith and prayers of everyone have made us wade through these times."
