Apurva is a really nice guy who has nothing negative to say about anyone. He is the world’s best husband and I feel like the luckiest girl in the world to have him. What I’d like to change about him though, is his temper. He can be hot-headed at times.- Shilpa

Apurva gushed:

It was during our honeymoon in Canada. We’re both very adventurous, so we tried our hand at bungee jumping, and sky diving etc. When it was my turn for bungee, right before I took the leap, Shilpa was dead scared. She turned to me and said, ‘No matter what, I will always love you’. That was a very special moment for me and I’ll never forget it.

And, the proud wife said:

The most memorable day of my life is June 24, 2004, it is the day I got married to Apurva. I was the happiest bride.
