When Genelia Deshmukh flatly ignored her husband Riteish Deshmukh, she said, "I thought he was arrogant...":Genelia thought Riteish Deshmukh was arrogant after seeing him.

News Topical, Digital Desk : Riteish Deshmukh and Genelia D'Souza are one of the fans' favorite couples. They've been married for over 14 years, but the actor's respect for his wife is a constant source of love.

However, their first meeting was quite different. When Genelia first saw Bollywood actor Riteish Deshmukh, she immediately turned away, as the actress herself revealed in an interview.

The first meeting took place during this film.

Riteish Deshmukh and his wife, actress Genelia Deshmukh, first met during the filming of the film Tujhe Meri Kasam Hai, and during that time, they didn't even speak to each other. The reason for this wasn't Riteish Deshmukh, but Genelia, who didn't like the actor at first sight. Genelia Deshmukh explained,

“I ignored Ritesh because I came from a middle-class family. He was the son of former Maharashtra Chief Minister Vilasrao Deshmukh. I thought he would be arrogant. Before he ignores me, I should do it myself.”

Genelia Deshmukh asked- Where is the security?

Ritesh said, “We were flying to Hyderabad for the screen test. The people who had come to pick us up in Hyderabad introduced us as an actress. Genelia saw us, said hello, and turned around. We were sitting on a bench during the screen test. She asked me, 'Where's your security?' I told her that my brother and I don't travel with security.”

Genelia further said, "When I found out there was no security, I thought he was a down-to-earth guy. Then I started talking to him." Genelia and Riteish Deshmukh have been a hit on-screen pairing as well as off-screen. They've worked together in films like Tujhe Meri Kasam, Tere Naal Love Ho Gaya, Masti, and the Marathi superhit film Ved. They will next be seen in Raja Shivaji, which releases in theaters on May 1st.
