When Bobby Deol's wife Tanya opened up on sharing household chores with Sunny Deol's wife Pooja, revealed mother-in-law Prakash Kaur ‘travels a lot': ‘You are cooking for 50 people'
Bobby Deol's wife Tanya Deol is the daughter of millionaire banker, late Devendra Ahuja. However, despite belonging to a nuclear business family, she got married into the Deol family, a rooted joint family. In a throwback interview with designers Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla, she had opened up about her relationship with parents-in-law Dharmendra and first wife Parkash Kaur. Tanya also revealed that she shares household chores with her sister-in-law, Sunny Deol's wife Pooja Deol, which can often translate into cooking a meal for 50 people daily.
During the candid conversation, she reflected on their relationship and mentioned that Dharmendra and Prakash Kaur treat her like their own daughter. She said, 'I have been married for a long time now. They treat me more like a daughter and it's great. They are amazing people individually, each one of them. We have a fabulous relationship.'
When asked about what role she plays in the house, Tanya shared how household work keeps her busy throughout the day. 'My mother-in-law travels a lot. I take a lot of interest in the running of the household. Sometimes I think that it's like running a business by itself because my home business is more hectic than my work business. You are cooking a meal for 50 people.'

She further added that everything is divided between her and Pooja on a monthly basis. 'We do share responsibilities. We take it one month at a time, it's just easier that way. One month you do it, one month you relax,' she said.
Bobby Deol and Pooja Deol got married on May 30, 1996, in a grand traditional wedding ceremony. They are blessed with two sons – Aryaman Deol and Dharam Deol. At the third edition of SCREEN LIVE recently, Bobby recalled chasing his wife Tanya, who wasn't interested in him initially. He said, 'She's my woman, my life, everything. She is the best thing that could have happened to me. I met her, I chased her… she was from South Bombay, she didn't give me any attention, but I still chased her. Somewhere I knew, she will fall in love with me. And then she did. We met, and in two months, we decided to get married. By this time, my parents were just dying for me to get married.'
