Anil Kapoor and wife Sunita Kapoor celebrated their 42nd wedding anniversary on Tuesday, and actress Sonam Kapoor also penned a heartfelt note for her parents.

The 40-year-old actor, who recently welcomed her second son, took to Instagram Stories to wish her parents with an emotional note.

Sharing her feelings for her parents the Neerja star wrote, “Happy anniversary to the best parents in the world who’ve set the best example of what a family needs to be. Love you @kapoor.sunita and @anilskapoor. God really blessed me in my life to have you both as my mom and dad. Love you, love.”

The 69-year-old actor tied the knot with his wife in 1984. On May 19, he marked the occasion by writing a profound message for his better half.

Expressing gratitude for his wife, the Nayak actor wrote, “42 years of marriage. 53 years of togetherness. And somehow, every single year feels more full than the last. It was the simplest wedding, done in about thirty minutes—no honeymoon, no fanfare. Just our parents, a few close ones, and the two of us. I never imagined that thirty minutes would turn into fifty-three years. As they say, marriages are made in heaven. Ours definitely was.”

Meanwhile, in a recent podcast appearance, the Animal actor credited his wife for raising three children on her own.

The Virasat actor didn’t hold back while talking about his own shortcomings. “I was hardly there. If my children say positive things about me, I feel happy that I have raised them well."

But as a father, I could have been much better. I should have spent more time. In many ways, Sunita has been like a single parent. I was present, but not the way a father should be,” the actor admitted.
