I was a free girl and used to go to jam sessions and enjoy time with friends. My life became completely different after I married him. He comes from a religiously conservative family. From a family of four, I had to live in a joint family of 20. I heard from my parents that he was also a religious person. I got to know about his devotional side when he went to a temple at 5 AM after spending our first night together. When I woke up I was alone. I sacrificed a lot after our marriage to adjust to a new environment. We are from a generation where we had to make a lot of compromises to make the marriage work, unlike today. I have no regrets as he loves me and I have a great family. Now half of the time he is in the temple and the rest with me in the house. But I am happy for him as he feels happy with his religious activities." Chandrabhan said: "I am a happy person. I am thankful to God who has given me such a great wife who has helped me to achieve whatever I wanted in life. A lot of credit goes to her how she has handled me for the last 47 years. We have become closer now as we are growing old. I now accept whatever she says. I am a happy and satisfied person." REUTERS/Danish Siddiqui SEARCH "GLOBAL LOVE" FOR THIS STORY.

They have been married for 29 years and have two sons. "When I was young my mother wanted me to marry, I thought it was too early but traditions came first, then young people's will. They said there was a girl, Nurgul, that could be my wife. It was impossible to meet a girl anywhere else. So me and some of my relatives met Nurgul and her family at their home. We got engaged at our second meeting and after a short while we got married. When we were newly-wed, we started to live in this house with my mother and father. After a while my parents moved next door but we stayed here. During those years there wasn't a chance to date a girl. There wasn't a place to go. My mother didn't ask me if I loved Nurgul or not. She said, 'If you don't love her, keep in your mind: I like her!' But once we got married I got to know her better. I loved her. Now it's just the two of us living in our small home. We don't have any reason to get angry at each other. We all need someone to be together with in peace and have conversations. Life could be really difficult if we didn't love each other. The place we associate with our relationship, is our home. This is the place where we have lived since day one," said Zakir. REUTERS/Umit Bektas SEARCH "GLOBAL LOVE" FOR THIS STORY.
