JAB WE MET

“My husband Chintan, a hedge-fund manager, and I met through a common friend when we were all of 24. Call me filmy, but it felt like we were destined to meet. We clicked like no other, so much so that he proposed marriage on the very next day itself! We just knew we were meant to be together.

I think Chintan and I connected over the fact that we love growing together, we’re both constantly evolving and putting ourselves outside our comfort zone. That’s what keeps the marriage fun and exciting even after eight years! Even though we spent so much time together, we revel in each other’s company. And I think it was only a matter of time before we would want to take it to the next level.

So in 2014, Chintan suggested that we have our first son Rajveer. Since I am a child psychologist by profession, and also own daycares and preschools for children, I felt prepared for motherhood. I wasn’t even a bit scared or apprehensive. We were expecting our first child in no time!

TICK TOCK, BABY ON THE BLOCK!
