Talking about the same, the actress was quoted saying, "I married for the first time at the age of 60. Until then, I hadn't found the right match. My husband is a very well-known scientist. When he talks about science, I don't understand a thing, but he is a wonderful human being."

She added, "I saw Atul's profile and thought, 'Physicists are on Facebook too?' He was working on the Large Hadron Collider. Since I have always been interested in science, I sent him a message asking, 'What is LHC?' He never directly proposed anything, but he hinted at it. When I realised he was looking for someone, I laughed to myself. I thought, 'When I couldn't find the right person in 60 years, how am I suddenly going to find him now?'"

What the actress' friend told her

"My friend told me that at this age, the options only become fewer. Don't shut the door before you've even opened it. If you don't like him, you can always move on. There's no harm in trying. When Atul asked for my number, I told him, 'Good girls don't give their phone numbers to strangers.' On the internet, it's not about who you meet; it's about what you meet. People create fake profiles all the time."

Suhasini Mulay also shared, "We met at the end of November and spoke extensively. By January 16, we were married. Once we had made the decision, there was no point waiting."

Speaking of how funny it was when they went to register their marriage, Suhasini shared, "When we went to register our marriage, the official assumed I had come to collect an old marriage certificate." The official asked them, "You and uncle?" And that cracked up the couple.
