Mohit Suri manifested his marriage to Udita Goswami after seeing her Paap hoarding 21 years ago
Mohit Suri has just delivered a fresh blockbuster with Saiyaara. The movie is cruising at the box office with final India net collections expected to be over Rs 400 crore. This is really heartwarming, given that it is a mid-sized film featuring debutants. Beyond the silver screen, his real-life love story with actress Udita Goswami is equally heartwarming. It all began with a glance at a hoarding, proving that love can start in the most unexpected ways. Mohit Suri Had Feelings For Udita, Right From The Day He Saw Her On A Billboard In The Early 2000s At a juice centre, Mohit Suri was chatting with a friend when he saw Udita on a hoarding for her debut film Paap. 'I was sitting outside a juice centre with a friend, and I saw Udita on a hoarding for her debut film 'Paap'. I jokingly told my friend, 'I'm going to marry her someday.' I had no idea who she was at the time; it was just a fleeting thought,' he shared in an exclusive NDTV interview. Mohit Suri Recalls How Pooja Bhatt Played The Matchmaker In His Relation With Udita Weeks later, fate played its part. During a trial screening, director Pooja Bhatt introduced Mohit to Udita. 'A few weeks later, I was at a trial screening, and Pooja Bhatt, who directed 'Paap', introduced me to Udita, saying, 'This is Mohit, he wants to marry you.' It was so embarrassing! I felt like such a fool, but that's when our story began,' Mohit recalled. That awkward moment sparked a connection that grew stronger over time. Mohit Suri Admits That He Is A Hopeless Romantic Their bond deepened while working on Mohit's film Zeher. Sparks flew instantly, and Mohit poured his heart into the relationship. 'I'm a hopeless romantic", he said. "Even after 21 years with Udita, I get excited when she praises me, and I feel upset when she doesn't talk to me. That's just how I am,' he admitted. Their journey wasn't without challenges. In 2010, they faced a rough patch, but their commitment held firm. After nearly a decade together, Mohit and Udita married in 2013. Mohit believes the universe conspired to make his wish come true, turning a casual comment into a lifelong partnership. Udita Goswami Often Tells Mohit To Save Emotions When They Are Fighting, For His Films Even now, Mohit's love for Udita remains intense. 'Sometimes, when we have a big fight, Udita tells me, 'Save all your emotions for your films!' But I can't help it; I'm emotional in real life too,' he confessed. After 21 years, Udita's words still move him deeply.

To Mohit Suri On Saiyaara Success, Big Love From Wife Udita Goswami
New Delhi: Mohit Suri's Saiyaara, which hit theatres on Friday, has surpassed all expectations and crossed the Rs 100-crore mark at the box office. Celebrating the film's success, actress Udita Goswami has now shared a heartfelt post for her director-husband. Udita shared a series of pictures on Instagram, one of which featured Mohit with their kids. The follow-up slides showed the couple posing for selfies together. In the caption, Udita wrote, "Mohit Suri, I honestly don't know where to begin—it feels a little strange saying this out loud because we usually keep things private. At home, I rarely express my appreciation; I'm more often the one giving reminders: 'Turn off the lights,' 'Switch off the AC,' 'Hang your wet towel,' 'Give me some attention,' 'Stop watching TV or playing games on your phone…' And when I ask for help around the house, you say, 'All I know is how to make movies.' Well, that, you definitely do." She added, "This moment didn't come easy. It's the result of years of patience, hard work, frustration, anxiety, sleepless nights, and the quiet insecurity of waiting for your time—while still holding on to the belief that you were good enough. You wanted our kids to witness the highs you once had, to feel proud of their father. And now, you haven't just reached that point—you've surpassed it. They can see it. We all can." Udita further credited Mohit Suri for the success of Saiyaara. She penned, "I know people love taking credit when something big succeeds, but when it comes to #Saiyaara, it's all you. I'm not vain enough to believe otherwise. You sacrificed a lot to pursue your vision—turned down so many tempting offers, started fresh, and rebuilt everything from the ground up." "You're a star maker—you don't need stars to shine, and you've never compromised on your creative integrity. It should always be your way. And I hope this film shows everyone just how powerful that can be. That said… don't forget: you still have to come home, hang your wet towel, and switch off the AC," she concluded. View this post on Instagram A post shared by ???????????????????????? ???????????????????????????? (@uditaagoswami) Reacting to the post, Mohit Suri wrote, "I am who i am because i have YOU @uditaagoswami." Saiyaara actor Ahaan Panday's mother Deanne added, "Ha ha ha so well said .. so perfectly written .. all from the heart & we all agree. Love you all & so much gratitude for being in our lives. God bless & thank you." Actor Ayushmann Khurrana dropped a red heart emoji in the comment section. Saiyaara marked the debut of Chunky Panday's nephew and Ananya Panday's cousin, Ahaan Panday.

Last Updated: Udita Goswami shared an emotional tribute to husband Mohit Suri after Saiyaara's success, praising his hard work and sacrifices. The film grossed Rs 150 crore. Udita Goswami, wife of Saiyaara director Mohit Suri, shared an emotional and deeply personal tribute to him after the massive success of the Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda film. In a rare public post, Udita opened up about the years of quiet struggle, hard work and sacrifice that led to this moment. She admitted that at home, she's usually the one keeping things practical—nagging him about wet towels and lights left on—so expressing love like this doesn't come naturally. But the success of Saiyaara moved her enough to break that pattern. Udita wrote, 'I honestly don't know where to begin—it feels a little strange saying this out loud because we usually keep things private. At home, I rarely express my appreciation; I'm more often the one giving reminders: 'Turn off the lights," 'Switch off the AC," 'Hang your wet towel," 'Give me some attention," 'Stop watching TV or playing games on your phone…" And when I ask for help around the house, you say, 'All I know is how to make movies."

You wanted our kids to witness the highs you once had, to feel proud of their father. And now, you haven't just reached that point—you've surpassed it. They can see it. We all can." Opening up on the sacrifices Mohit made, Udita added, 'I know people love taking credit when something big succeeds, but when it comes to #Saiyaara, it's all you. I'm not vain enough to believe otherwise. You sacrificed a lot to pursue your vision—turned down so many tempting offers, started fresh, and rebuilt everything from the ground up." The film has made Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda into overnight stars. To this, Udita wrote, 'You're a star maker—you don't need stars to shine, and you've never compromised on your creative integrity. It should always be your way. And I hope this film shows everyone just how powerful that can be." Saiyaara has made Rs 150 gross crore at the box office.

Her sizzling chemistry with Emraan Hashmi was widely hailed and appreciated. Their chemistry, particularly in Agar Tum Mil Jao, became iconic.
