Rakhee Punjabi had once spoken about her marriage with hubby, Raam and had shared that family was of utmost importance for them, although friends too, carry immense meaning. Rakhee had stated, “So what is of utmost importance is to smile and see smiles around us in every day of our lives.” Raam had remarked that Rakhee indeed is woman, who epitomises kindness, the quality he had first admired about her. On sharing advice to younger couples, Raam had emphasised on the importance of accepting the shortcomings of one another. As for those still lingering in confusion in picking their partners for life, Raam’s advice for them is realising that fickleness is pointless. He had said, “If the feeling is mutual, grab the opportunity and stop bargaining around because no human is perfect.”
Do you know, Raam Punjabi was the man behind a change in Indonesian television? After 20 years of hard work, Raam had kissed nothing but success. In an interview with Millionaire Indonesia, Raam had shared that luck and destiny are also amongst the two important pillars in anyone’s success. He had stated, “Through courage, a strong determined will and sheer hardwork, we can all turn our circumstances around and succeeded. Never lose focus on your goal.” Soon enough, Raam is also heading towards conquering space in Bollywood too! Speaking about the same and his next target, the millionaire producer had revealed, “Bollywood and Hollywood are my next targets and I am persistently reviewing all possibilities, because my reputation goes before me, and I want to maintain my standard."
