Gone are the days when women used to happily leave their name and identity packed in their old trousseau when they get married. Nowadays, they are taking their identity along with them to the new house. No matter what the world says, they strive harder to follow their dreams. And Bollywood actor, Ayushmann Khurrana's wife, Tahira Kashyap is one of those few women, who followed her dreams even after getting the 'Missus' tag and her husband happily supported her.

In the same interview, Tahira Kashyap also confessed about being insecure when she had seen an intimate scene between Ayushmann Khurrana and Yami Gautam in the film, Vicky Donor. She said, "Yeah, I was insecure earlier but when I was watching the edits of Andhadhun, I told the team that something is missing in the make-out scene between Ayushmann and Radhika Apte. That moment I realised about the transformation, from being an insecure wife to analysing the make-out scenes."
Ayushmann and Tahira's love story is a different kind of fairytale wherein they had their own share of fights, insecurities and gloomy days. But despite it all, their willingness to stay together brought them this far. The duo had tied the knot in the year 2011 and have created a beautiful paradise of their own with two kids, Virajveer and Varushka. The couple has made us believe that it all takes a willingness to stay in love and a lot of compromises to spend a lifetime together.

In an interview with the SpotboyE, Tahira had talked about the time when she had felt insecure in her relationship. She had shared, "I had a problem with him kissing on screen. I felt like a big, huge fat whale sitting at home. When you are pregnant your hormones also go up and down. Here this boy is looking at his youngest youth best and he is romancing women and what is this onscreen kiss! We both were very young. He didn’t have the time and patience to take me along and I didn’t have the patience to understand. There was this disconnect that we were not there for each other to take each other along in that journey. Somewhere he knew that she doesn’t mean mad. I also knew he wasn’t cheating. I had to evolve as a person to understand what art is."
She had further stated, "I had given up many times but he did not. He didn’t use to give up but he also didn’t makeup. We both have really evolved as artists, as companions and we have seen a journey including cancer being a part of it. Where we are right now, it is at its strongest best."
