One of the most heartwarming aspects of Genelia’s relationship with her parents is their presence in her personal life, especially during her transition to marriage. When Genelia decided to marry her longtime co-star and love, Riteish Deshmukh, the D’Souza family welcomed the alliance with open arms. In a beautiful blend of cultures, the D’Souzas embraced the Deshmukh family’s Marathi and royal traditions, just as the Deshmukhs respected Genelia’s Mangalorean Christian heritage.
