Zaid sang the heartbreak ballad along with his father on stage with Gauahar accompanying them. Many fans questioned the choice of song that Ismail sung on a happy occasion.

An intimate yet elaborate affair, Gauahar and Zaid's pre-wedding festivities began with the traditional 'chiksa' ceremony. Earlier, the actress and Zaid had shared a glimpse of their love story in an animated video. Gauahar's Instagram video featured a caricature version of the couple. 

The summary of the video read, "What started as a lockdown ritual, turned into love at first beep. Quarantine drives and parking garages is what date night looked look like! No matter the distance, we`ve always found ourselves closer together. And when all words failed, he sealed the deal with a song. We can't wait to spend our lives with love, laughter and most importantly good food."

Gauahar recently said in an interview with Hindustan Times that Zaid proposed to her after a month of meeting her. 

"We didn’t have a courtship. I met him, we hit it off and he didn’t think he would propose to someone, marriage was not on his mind. When he asked me, it wasn't planned. It was in a flow and after meeting me, in literally over a month, he proposed to me. There were no second thoughts, she said.
