Not many know that Gurmeet Choudhary and Debina Bonnerjee first met each other at a talent show. They hadn't forayed into acting at that time.
While Debina Bonnerjee is an extrovert and fun-loving, husband Gurmeet Choudhary is shy and reserved. As their friendship grew into love he struggled to openly express his feelings for her.
Gurmeet Choudhary and Debina Bonnerjee played Lord Ram and Sita respectively in the 2007 TV show Ramayan where viewers loved their on-screen chemistry as the divine couple.
Another lesser-known fact is that both Gurmeet Choudhary and Debina Bonnerjee worked together in the Tamil-language TV series Mayavi.
The couple has dabbled into several reality shows together as well and emerged winners on Pati Patni Aur Woh and Nach Baliye 6.

Gurmeet Choudhary and Debina Bonnerjee are fond of travelling and often take trips together. In fact, one glance at the couple's Instagram account will be good enough to know how much Gurmeet and Debina love to travel!
Gurmeet Choudhary and Debina Bonnerjee tied the knot on February 15, 2011. 'Without Debina I would have never been successful. People say that my wife is the dominating one. If with my wife dominating me I could reach here then it is a good thing. I want to be her 'joru ka ghulam (My wife's slave). If a small town boy from Bihar can reach where I am now it's all because of Debina. She has supported me through everything. It was my dream to be a star and post marriage it became her dream too. My life is incomplete without her,' said Gurmeet once.
In 2017, Gurmeet Choudhary and wife Debina Bonnerjee adopted two girls - Pooja and Lata from Gurmeet's hometown, Bihar.
Talking about the adoption, Gurmeet Choudhary and Debina Bonnerjee revealed they always wanted to adopt children and immediately agreed after Gurmeet's mother introduced the girls to them.
Gurmeet's parents - mother Anmol and father Sitaram are settled in that village and that's where Pooja, an orphan, was living with her uncle and first cousin Lata. But in 2016, Lata's father passed away and the two girls moved in with a distant relative. 'After hearing about their plight from my mother, I discussed them with my wife. Debina agreed with me that it was time to give the kids a home, a deserving education and my last name,' says Gurmeet.
Initially, Gurmeet says the plan was to support the girls financially but he later decided to adopt them.
Truly an inspiration to many couples out there! Don't you think so?
