Sibling duo, actors Ridhi Dogra (38) and Akshay Dogra (41), feel their bond is like a “rubber band”. “No matter how much we are going in the opposite direction, we end up coming together eventually,” says Akshay, as the two speak to us during a Raksha Bandhan special shoot.

Ridhi tells us, “Recently, we had a disagreement, and that was probably the first time we fought in our entire life.” To this, Akshay adds, “Thoda bahut irritate hona is different, but we have never actually fought. That’s the most amazing thing about our bond.”

“I have only one tattoo and it was a gift from him. I love everything that he’s given me, but this tattoo has to be my favourite present. This was many years ago, though, so I think it needs a redo,” quips Ridhi.

For Akshay, the most special gift he has received from Ridhi is a perfume: “It was so nice, but the bottle broke. That was heartbreaking.”

“We are sibling goals,” exclaims Akshay, adding, “If we have told each other anything, it always stays between the two of us.”

Ridhi is quick to chime in: “But, if I give him an exciting news about work, it goes to four other people. I always tell him it's unfair!” Her brother chuckles and adds, “I am an over-sharer and I get excited. If I am proud of that person, I will tell other people.”

“We get each other,” shares Ridhi, adding, “Since we are in the same profession, we can talk about many things that other people may not understand. It’s also important that we are able to rant in front of each other. I told him once, ‘Be careful and don’t trust people.’”

Akshay, on the other hand, says, “The one advice that I give her is, ‘Be patient and stay the course.’”
