Sudha Murty Reveals: Narayan Murthy's Silent Wit, Rare Laughter, and Few Words: 'You Speak for Both of Us!

Sudha Murty, an eminent educator, author, and philanthropist, is renowned for her candidness in expressing thoughts and sharing personal stories. The former chairperson of Infosys Foundation, she often reflects on her relationship with her husband, NR Narayana Murthy, a co-founder of Infosys.

During a recent appearance on The Kapil Sharma Show alongside Raveena Tandon and producer Guneet Monga, Murty playfully disclosed that her husband has maintained the same weight since their wedding day, teasingly attributing it to her culinary skills as a "bad cook"

Narayana Murthy's weight has remained the same since our wedding day. With a humorous tone, Sudha Murty revealed, "I must admit, as a bad cook, I'm responsible for his steady weight." The audience burst into laughter at her remark.

Narayana Murthy and I are quite different. He's a serious, introverted person who rarely laughs or speaks. In fact, he limits himself to just four or five sentences a day. Whenever I ask him why he doesn't speak more, he humorously replies, "You speak enough for both of us, so I have nothing left to say." Once, during an event where he received the Businessman of the Year award, a photographer approached us for pictures. Knowing his reluctance to smile, the photographer asked me to make him smile. I jokingly responded, saying, "It's been 45 years since we got married, and that's one task I haven't accomplished yet."

While he maintains a serious demeanor, I'm always adorned with a smile. Laughter is my constant companion, and seriousness doesn't resonate with me. Our relationship, as I see it, follows the principle of physics: opposite poles attract each other," she joyfully shared.

When Kapil Sharma praised Murty for her wit, she humbly responded, "As an author, I can confidently say that writing humor is challenging. It's easier to craft serious novels, but injecting humor into stories and articles is the toughest task. I truly admire you (Sharma) for effortlessly finding humor."

Sudha Murty, honored with the Padma Bhushan award, has authored numerous books in both Kannada and English languages.
