Priya Dutt took to social media with a touching tribute to her parents, Bollywood legends Sunil Dutt and Nargis, celebrating the anniversary of their enduring love.
Sharing cherished memories, she wrote: "Together, they built a home overflowing with love, laughter, and learning. Today marks the anniversary of their everlasting love for each other. Every day, they showed that true partnership is about nurturing, understanding, and inspiring one another through small gestures, unwavering support, and shared dreams. Through their bond, I learned that love thrives in patience, respect, and joy, and that a partnership can be both tender and strong, personal and far-reaching. Their example is my guide for how to live, love, and give meaning to every moment. Happy anniversary Ma and Papa"
The post was accompanied by evocative black-and-white photographs capturing intimate moments from the couple’s life together. One image shows Sunil and Nargis laughing on a couch in the 1970s, while another vintage portrait from the 1960s features a young Sanjay, Namrata, and baby Priya, offering a glimpse into the family’s private, joyful world beyond the glamour of the silver screen.
