Do you know one of Bollywood's greatest actor, Amrish Puri, had the sweetest love story with his wife? The couple tied the knot in 1950 and stood by each other through thick and thin.

Amrish Puri is one of Bollywood’s most iconic actors, renowned for his unforgettable villain roles. However, his off-screen persona was completely different, as he led a life filled with kindness, devotion and love. The beautiful relationship he shared with his wife, Urmila Puri, was often overlooked due to his cinematic legacy. Their love story is purely ‘green flag’ in today’s generation.

The couple met each other in Delhi, when Amrish was an aspiring actor in the world of theatre. Although, it wasn’t a usual grand Bollywood love stories, but still the two had a pure and deep connection that blossomed over time.

In an interview with Peeping Moon, Amrish Puri’s grandson, Vardhan Puri, shared some adorable insights about his grandfather’s love life. He spoke about their first meetup, and how their unwavering love for each other won everyone over. He said, “Dadi was South Indian and dadu was Punjabi and when their families got to know about their liking for each other, they did not like it and were against their marriage. But soon dadi and dadu convinced their family members and got married with their blessings.”

Urmila, who was teacher by profession, was an unwavering support in Amrish’s journey to success. She understood his ambition and supported him both practically and emotionally during his long years of struggle. Amrish called Urmila his pillar of strength, saying, “Mai hero banu ya na banu, iss ghar ki hero toh meri biwi hi hai.”

After Amrish’s carer rose to stardom in 80s and 90s with his memorable performances in films like Mr India, DDLJ, and Karan Arjun, he stayed humbled, and continued to cherish his wife for her incredible support throughout his career. Their relationship proves that true love doesn’t demand grand gestures, but a mutual respect and authenticity towards each other.
