The Kapil Sharma Show: Sudha Murty Shares How Narayana Murthy Forgot Their 25th Anniversary – “I Felt Hurt”
The latest episode of The Great Indian Kapil Show featured Narayana Murthy, co-founder of Infosys, and his wife Sudha Murty, along with Zomato CEO Deepinder Goyal and his wife Grecia Munoz. During the episode, Narayana Murthy humorously confessed that he had forgotten their 25th wedding anniversary, despite Sudha Murty trying to drop hints. He shared, “One morning, Sudha asked if there was anything special that day, and I said no. As I was heading to the office, she asked again, but I still didn’t get it. I thought it was just a regular day.”
Murthy continued, “Later that evening, as I was on my way to catch a flight to Mumbai, I received a call from our daughter, Akshata, who was studying at Stanford in the US. She asked what I was doing, and I told her I was flying to Mumbai. She immediately said, ‘Cancel your flight and take the first flight out tomorrow morning to Bangalore to wish Mom and celebrate your anniversary!’”
Sudha Murty chimed in, sharing how she felt hurt by his forgetfulness: “It was our 25th anniversary, so it’s a special occasion. I tried to give him a hint, but it didn’t work. I felt bad for a few minutes because I’m human too. But our daughter was upset, saying, ‘This doesn’t happen in America!’ I replied, ‘Well, in India, it does!’ Who can remember these things?”
In the same episode, Sudha Murty also humorously admitted to being a poor cook, saying, “I cook so badly. Just look at Murthy’s weight—thanks to my cooking!”
The Great Indian Kapil Show is hosted by comedian Kapil Sharma, and new episodes are available on Netflix every Saturday.
