Young Pakistani girl married 50-year-old bus driver goes viral

Young Pakistani girl married 50-year-old bus driver goes viral

Age is simply a number when it comes to love. These adages have been used frequently. These statements appear to have been taken literally by a couple. Against all odds, a 50-year-old bus driver fell in love with a 24-year-old female passenger. Shehzadi and Sadiq, two bus drivers in Pakistan’s Punjab province, fell in love as they traveled together every day between Channu and Lahore. Shehzadi made the first confession of love, which Sadiq would have never done. He reciprocated at that point, and they later wed. Their love tale is the stuff of movies.

The couple was interviewed by Pakistani YouTuber Syed Basit Ali. In the interview, Shehzadi said that Sadiq’s affinity for vintage music was the reason she fell in love with him. She admitted that she admired his appearance, mannerisms, and bus driving. Shehzadi used to board the bus every day and ride to Lahore from Channu, where her stop was the very last. Every day, Sadiq used to play classic music during the entire ride. Shehzadi became completely smitten with her future husband Sadiq as a result.

The revelation of their love for one another, according to Shehzadi, was the largest obstacle in their love journey. But one day she worked up the confidence to tell Sadiq she loved him. The bus driver later returned her affection. Age is irrelevant to love, Shehzadi informed Sadiq.

Watch their interview here:

More than 13 lakh people saw their interview with Syed Basit Ali on the video-sharing website, and they expressed support for their love story in the comments. Many people praised the couple and called their relationship “genuine love.”
