Kareena Kapoor Khan and Saif Ali Khan got married in 2012 and their adorable journey is the epitome of romance for us even today. The couple, who fell in love on the sets of Tashan, took their own sweet little time before tying the knot in a very intimate ceremony. Bebo was smitten by him and Saif was head over heels in love with her. Their match was made in heaven and their chemistry was as sizzling off screen as it was on screen. Though there is a huge age gap between them, they never considered it to be a hurdle in their relationship. In fact Kareena had just one condition for Saif before she said yes for marriage. “Today I am a wife and all my life I will work and earn money and my husband will support. That is the only condition (on which) I married Saif,” she had said in one of her early interviews. Also Read: [Video] Kareena and Taimur turn cheerleaders for Saif as he plays gully cricket
But since Saif was already Karisma’s co-star, there are innumerable videos of the present day couple on the internet that go back a long way. One of which is of when Saif gave an award to Kareena in one of the awards shows then. The year was 2002 when Kareena was awarded with the Queen of hearts award at Zee Cine Awards. Bebo had just delivered a remarkable performance on stage when she went to collect the award from Saif Ali Khan, Akshaye Khanna and Parmeshwar Godrej. Kareena was thrilled to receive the honour but it was Saif’s weird expressions throughout the clip that captured our attention. The duo was extremely formal and awkward with each other, with Kareena concentrating on her win and Saif being busy with his thoughts. You actually try to figure what’s running in his mind and was he in a hurry of some sorts? Nonetheless, no one knew that they would end up getting married one day and it’s nostalgic to see how indifferent they were towards each other before falling in love many years later.

Saif always believed that Kareena was a perfect match. “I think timing is everything. I met Kareena at a point in my life when I was ready to consolidate and build in every area of my life. She brought a great sense of stability; I felt like we were able to create a solid foundation on which I could build emotionally, financially, and professionally,” he had once said. Kareena, too, believed in being vocal when it came to her feelings for him. She once said how lucky she is to have someone like him in her life. “God has been very kind to me. I am lucky to have found this man who is so modern, so liberated. He’s much more intelligent than me. I like the fact that he is so well read and that I can count on him for everything,” she had gushed.
