When Taapsee Pannu tied the knot with her longtime boyfriend, Mathias Boe, in February 2024, it took many by surprise. The Bollywood actress, known for her strong on-screen presence, is now happily married. However, her journey with Mathias wasn’t always smooth, especially in the beginning, when her friends had serious concerns about her safety during their first meeting.
Friends’ Concerns About Mathias Boe
In a recent interview, Taapsee revealed that when she first started dating Mathias Boe, a professional badminton player from Denmark, her friends were worried. They feared for her safety when she planned to meet Mathias for the first time in Dubai, far from home. Taapsee shared that her friends jokingly warned her, “What if he sells you to a Sheikh?” The concern stemmed from the fact that Mathias lived in Denmark while Taapsee was based in India, making the relationship seem even more risky to her friends.
The Beginning of Taapsee and Mathias’ Relationship
Taapsee and Mathias met over a decade ago, around 10-11 years back. Despite the initial hesitation, the two hit it off and started dating. A year after their first meeting, Mathias proposed to Taapsee, and the couple got engaged nine years ago. Reflecting on their relationship, Taapsee mentioned that even after all these years, nothing has changed between them. They continue to share the same bond and love that they had at the beginning.
Taapsee’s Craziest Act of Love
When asked about the craziest thing she had ever done for love, Taapsee shared an interesting story. She revealed that their first date was a cross-continent adventure. Mathias proposed meeting in either Denmark or Dubai, and Taapsee, intrigued by the idea, chose Dubai. “I didn’t know him well at the time, but I went ahead with it. It was the craziest thing I’ve done for anyone,” Taapsee recalled. She humorously added that her friends’ concerns didn’t make it easier, as they kept warning her to be careful.
Overcoming Initial Fears
Taapsee confessed that she, too, had her own doubts in the beginning. “Being a part of this industry, there’s always a bit of an inferiority complex. You wonder why someone from a different world, like Mathias, would be interested in you,” she said. Despite her friends’ fears and her own doubts, Taapsee decided to trust her instincts. “My friends even gave me emergency contacts in Dubai, just in case something went wrong,” she laughed. Fortunately, Mathias turned out to be the perfect partner, and their relationship has only grown stronger over the years.
Taapsee’s Upcoming Projects
On the professional front, Taapsee Pannu is all set to grace the screen once again in her latest film, Phir Aayi Haseen Dilruba, which was released on August 9, 2024. The film also stars Vikrant Massey and Sunny Kaushal, and has generated a lot of buzz. In addition to this, Taapsee will be seen in the upcoming movie Khel Khel Mein.
Taapsee Pannu’s journey with Mathias Boe is a testament to the power of love and trust. Despite the initial fears and doubts, the couple has proven that love can transcend boundaries and overcome obstacles. As Taapsee continues to shine in her professional career, her personal life with Mathias stands as a strong example of a relationship built on mutual respect, understanding, and love.
