R. Madhavan, the renowned actor from the film '3 Idiots,' has shared insights from his 27-year marriage to Sarita Birje during a conversation with Ranveer Allahbadia. He believes that marrying at a younger age facilitates easier adaptation and growth within the relationship. Madhavan noted that youth brings a natural openness, making it simpler for partners to adjust their habits and viewpoints as they evolve together. He emphasized the significance of compromise in a successful marriage, stating that personal sacrifices become meaningful when the bond with a partner is cherished. Madhavan and Sarita first met in 1991 in Kolhapur during a personality development course where he was an instructor. Their relationship blossomed after Sarita, who later became an air hostess, invited him to dinner to express her gratitude for his guidance. They married in 1999 and welcomed their son, Vedaant Madhavan, in 2005, who has since made a name for himself in competitive swimming.
