In this heartwarming episode of The Smiling Souls Seniors Podcast, host Tejasa sits down with a truly special couple — Mrs. Reshmi Munshi and Mr. Partho Munshi. What begins as a beautiful love story in Kolkata blossoms into a life filled with new cities, new challenges, personal sacrifices, parenting lessons, and unwavering companionship in Mumbai.

Reshmi ji shares memories of growing up in a disciplined yet culturally rich Bengali household — with a principal mother, a police inspector father, and a childhood steeped in music, dance, and academics. Partho ji opens up about his roots tracing back to East Bengal (Bangladesh), his family’s journey to Kolkata, his academic excellence, and how teaching tuitions led him to meet his future life partner.

What started as a “filmy love story” between a tutor and his student soon faced real-life hurdles — conservative families, caste differences, parental doubts, and emotional negotiations. Yet, love and respect triumphed, bringing the two together for a lifelong partnership.
