Rahul Kumar, remembered fondly as Millimetre from the blockbuster 3 Idiots, has captured the internet’s attention once again — this time for a real-life love story. The actor was recently spotted in New Delhi with his wife, Keziban Dogan, a Turkish national, and a chance encounter with a street photographer led to a viral moment celebrating their cross-border romance.
In the now widely shared video, the photographer asks the couple to introduce themselves. Rahul smiles and says, “I am Rahul, she is my wife Keziban Dogan, and she is from Turkey.” Keziban, standing beside him in a bright red salwar suit, adds cheerfully, “Yes, we are married, 4th May.” Rahul, dressed in a white shirt and beige trousers, even checks if their matching teekas appear fine on camera, adding a sweet touch to the interaction.
The photographer, unaware of Rahul’s identity at first, is surprised when Keziban reveals their unique love story. She shared that she had first seen Rahul in 3 Idiots and reached out to him after watching his performance. “I watched this movie, he is an actor there. Millimetre, you know? I texted him, and we talked. Fourteen years before, I think,” she said, explaining how an unexpected message sparked a long friendship that ultimately turned into a relationship.
Once the candid pictures and video of the couple were posted online, social media users quickly identified Rahul and began celebrating the heartwarming story. The internet showered the pair with congratulatory messages, praising their journey from film-fan connection to marriage.
Their simple, affectionate interaction in the video — along with the unexpected reveal of Rahul’s identity — has made the clip one of the most wholesome viral moments of the week.
