Mumbai, Aug 3 (IANS) Actor Aayush Sharma has conveyed birthday wishes to his wife Arpita with a special note on Instagram.

"Here's wishing the strongest woman, I know a very Happy Birthday.

You'll always be my strength," he wrote.

He also mentioned why he considers Arpita's birthday special.

"Your birthday is a very special occasion for us as a family, because we are celebrating the birth of a wonderful daughter, sister, wife, mother but more importantly an amazing human being. Love you Arpita," Aayush added.

The two got married in November, 2014, and have two children.
