Neelima Rani, a popular actress and film producer from Chennai, recently shared a heartfelt message on her 17th wedding anniversary. Instead of focusing on grand celebrations, she chose to talk about the real meaning of marriage.
Taking to Instagram, Neelima expressed how grateful she feels for her husband, @music_esai. She described him as her mentor, guardian angel, support system, and life partner. Despite facing ups and downs, their love and warmth have kept them going all these years. “We are still counting blessings every single day,” she wrote.
Neelima explained what truly matters in a marriage. For her, happiness is more important than material things. She shared that her husband believes in open discussions more than arguments, and together they have always prioritized understanding and walking forward side by side. Their journey from 2008 to 2025 has seen many changes, but they continue to evolve every day.
The actress also opened up about tough times, including betrayals by people close to them. Despite those painful moments, she emphasized their resilience. “People came into our lives and some even betrayed us, but we stand tall today,” Neelima said. “We believe in love, in moving on, and in the spirit of ‘Anbe Shivam,’ meaning love and goodness.”
She concluded by saying that marriage isn’t something that’s made in heaven but built step-by-step by the couple themselves. It’s not for social media, society, or relatives — it’s a personal journey of two individuals trying to create something meaningful together. Neelima also thanked everyone for their support and criticism over the years, which has made her stronger.
This touching message reminds us that real marriage is about partnership, understanding, and growing together through everything life throws at us.
