Mr and Mrs Bhalke: Age No Bar

In a world where people tend to be negative about love and aging, we were pleasantly surprised to find Mr and Mrs Bhalke, an evergreen and oh so cute couple participating in Rock N Roll Family. Mr Bhalke at 75 stands erect while Mrs Bhalke is pushing 70.

Mr and Mrs Bhalke along with their son, daughter-in-law and grand son are participants of Rock N Roll Family. In the Holi special they set the stage on fire! Their performance to the Rang Barse number had the audience applauding their chemistry but towards the end of the song, Mr and Mrs Bhalke disappeared under a red dupatta. At first it seemed like it was for effect but when the couple didn’t emerge till quite a few minutes passed, the jury and audience couldn’t help but whistle and cat-call.

Kajol, who is on the jury drew inspiration from the couple in her critique of their performance and commented on their camaraderie at such a ripe age The guest panel of judges consisting of Tusshar Kapoor, Suneil Shetty and Sameera Reddy also raved about their performance.

The family is very close knit and hails from Indore. As far as optimism about aging and ever-lasting love goes, we could all learn a thing or two from Mr and Mrs Bhalke. Don’t miss the Holi special on Zee TV on Saturday, March 22 at 10 p.m.
