Shabana-Javed get lovey-dovey at IIJW

Mumbai: Veteran Indian cinema artistes actress Shabana Azmi and her writer husband Javed Akhtar presented a rare `smitten by love` portrait when they walked the India International Jewellery Week (IIJW) ramp here.

The duo sashayed across the ramp together for the first time for Golecha`s Jewels Tuesday. Jewellery is precious for every woman. So, when Shabana was asked about any special piece of jewellery gifted to her by her husband, she said: "Javed saab has presented me with a lot of jewellery. But I don`t believe that a relationship should be measured by the amount of jewellery as presents." On a romantic note, she added: "He holds my hand or says a piece of poetry for me, that is the biggest jewellery for me." Javed said he had once given a necklace as a present to Shabana. He added: I would like to say today this is Golecha`s jewellery, but I am Shabanaji`s jewel." Javed married Shabana in 1984. He was earlier married to Honey Irani, with whom he has two children - Farhan Akhtar and Zoya Akhtar. IANS
