00:00And no, I'm not interested in joining politics. People always ask me sometimes, like, why
00:09don't you join politics?
00:24He was the one sending the first message, even if sometimes he forgets. And then sometimes
00:28people will ask us, they will say, no, it was Giulia. No, no, no, it was him. First
00:32date was love at first sight. We always say it's love at first conversation because we
00:38spend the first day talking for like six hours.
00:47I am a really extroverted person and Shrey is really introvert. He's vegetarian by birth.
00:52I am vegetarian by choice. I grew up Catholic. Shrey grew up a Jain. So we come from two
00:58different religious backgrounds, but nevertheless, we have the same values.
01:03Mom gave him such a tight hug that she almost broke his glasses. My parents were nervous,
01:13but they just loved him from the first instance.
01:24I'm extremely lucky to have a mother-in-law that is so cool, so fun, so open-minded, so
01:31welcoming and everything. She loves dancing. And it's also like one way for us to bond.
01:38Like we have a lot of fun.
01:43Like Italy and India have a similar sense of community, but in India, this is definitely
01:48on the next level. I love the concept of joint families, the respect for elder people,
01:56how much you take care of them and how much it is part of the culture, which is a bit
02:02different in Italy. Sometimes he feels overwhelmed also when it comes to Italy, because he has
02:07to meet everyone, nana, nani, mama, mami, mosa, mosi, everyone. And he's really tried
02:13to avoid that even in India.
02:19I speak five languages, but Hindi is really difficult for me to memorize. Shrey is now
02:30advancing faster than me in Italian, that I am advancing in Hindi. Unfortunately, most
02:37of my family doesn't speak English, so he has to. So I do understand Hindi. So whenever
02:43he now speaks on the phone with his friends or he makes jokes with his friends, I understand
02:48the jokes.
02:54To have it in India, I really want to wear those amazing dresses and have that opportunity,
03:07even if it's going to happen in a few years, maybe as an anniversary, it doesn't matter.
