00:00My husband travels 20 days in a month, abroad.
00:04I travel 22 days in a month, village.
00:07Okay?
00:08How many days are left?
00:09Six to eight days in a month.
00:11So when you are with each other for six to eight days, why fight?
00:14Let us know something about the harmonious relationship that you have with your husband.
00:19I should have a good relationship with my husband because we hardly meet.
00:27I'm one generation behind you.
00:29The value system, the marriage, the commitment was so different than what it is today.
00:34As a woman, every woman feels her husband should listen to her.
00:37Every woman feels.
00:38Man also feels my wife should listen to me.
00:40That too, don't worry.
00:43Over a period of time, I realized a person like Moorthy, who eats, breathes, drinks in
00:50forces, cannot spare any time for us, for the family.
00:55It is like a tapas.
00:56In olden days, we used to go sit in a forest and do tapas.
01:00Today, you can sit in an electronic city and do tapas.
01:02Okay?
01:03The result of that tapas is infosys.
01:05A son of a school teacher can build an empire like infosys in one's lifetime of 30 years.
01:13It's not a joke.
01:15That means a person should be dedicated his entire life for that, dreaming about it, talking
01:20about it.
01:21Then what is his wife's duty?
01:23Expecting me, you have to take me out for a movie.
01:26You take me out for a saree birthday.
01:29You take me out for this.
01:30None of them are possible in his life.
01:33So, accept a person as he is.
01:37That is what I tell women.
01:39Accept your husband what he is.
01:44What he is not, don't imagine he should be like Shah Rukh Khan.
01:48No.
01:49Please allow him the liberty or the freedom what he likes, why he likes, why he wants
01:56to spend money on A, B, C, D.
01:58Unless it is harmful for the family.
02:00Suppose he gives little more money to his mother-in-law, little more money to sister-in-law.
02:04Let us assume that way.
02:05My husband used to do lot more actually.
02:07Lot more to mother-in-law, to his wife, compared to wife.
02:10Initially, I used to get upset.
02:11Then I realized.
02:12I knew my husband at the age of 26.
02:17First 26 years, who has taken care?
02:19She.
02:20She deserves more.
02:22After all, he was her son first.
02:25Then my husband later.
02:27And this liberty gave me so much freedom not to contest with him for anything.
02:32I tell him, as a friend, I will tell this is wrong.
02:35As a family unit, I will accept it.
02:38Decision is yours.
02:40And I expect same thing from him.
02:42And he does that.
02:43As a friend Sudha, this is not correct.
02:45As a family, I accept it.
02:47Behind every successful woman, there is an understanding husband.
