She said, “We started doing couples therapy I think about six months before or after we got engaged. It wasn’t one person convincing the other. It was like this is something that sounds like a smart thing to do.
” She revealed that they went to therapy a few days after their wedding. The actor said that they got married on Monday and their scheduled appointment was on Wednesday. She remembered when she walked in, their therapist was also shocked and questioned them.
Shibani stressed that therapy is important for guiding them. She added, “It’s like going to the gym. You have to keep working on it.
So, there are times when we go for sessions and it’s every couple of weeks and sometimes we go in there and we just look at each other and we’re like we have nothing to talk about. There are days where we go in and we were like we are going to need longer than an hour because let me just tell you some things about this guy right here..
.There are times where we maybe get into a fight at home and we know we’ve got to see our therapist on Wednesday. So, we will just wait or I will try and wait.
I want to get into it right now and he’ll be like ‘Let’s just wait and discuss it on Wednesday’.” About the couple Farhan and Shibani , who dated for almost three years, tied the knot at Farhan's family farmhouse in Khandala in the presence of close friends and family members on February 19, 2022.
