Veteran actor Zeenat Aman recently took to Instagram, to share some relationship advice for the younger generation. In her post, Zeenat 'strongly recommended' new-age couples to have a live-in relationship before marriage, emphasizing on the significance of compatibility and understanding between partners.
Zeenat wrote, One of you asked me about relationship advice in the comments section of my last post. Here’s a personal opinion I haven’t previously shared - if you’re in a relationship, I strongly recommend that you LIVE TOGETHER before getting married! This is the same advice I’ve always given my sons, both of whom have had, or are in, a live-in relationship. It just seems logical to me that before two people get their families and the government involved in their equation, they first put their relationship to the ultimate test."
"It’s easy to be the best version of yourself for a few hours a day. But can you share a bathroom? Weather the storm of a bad mood? Agree on what to eat for dinner every night? Keep the fire alive in the bedroom? Work through the million tiny conflicts that inevitably arise between two people in close proximity? In short - are you actually compatible? I’m aware that Indian society is a little uptight about “living in sin” but then again, society is uptight about so many things! Log kya kahenge (What will people say)," she added.
Along with the advice, Zeenat also shared pictures of herself with her rescued dog Lily. The actor wrote, "Two birds, one post! First, by popular demand, here’s my madcap Lily having a caper in the garden this afternoon. Lily is a good ole desi dog rescued from the streets of Bombay. She is my darling shadow, and the reason that I am a firm advocate of pet rescue and adoption."
Meanwhile, on the work front, Zeenat will soon make a comeback in Bollywood with her next film Bun Tikki alongside Shabana Azmi and Abhay Deol.
