Kajal Aggarwal, Gautam Kitchlu
Kajal Aggarwal got married to entrepreneur Gautam Kitchlu over the weekend and has been sharing happy pictures of her wedding since then.
In a recent interview, Kajal said that it was the distance between them during the lockdown that encouraged them to take the plunge despite the complications of planning a wedding amid the coronavirus pandemic.
During an interaction with Vogue, Kajal said, "Gautam and I dated for about three years, and then we were friends for seven. We have progressed in every stage of being friends and been very important in each other’s lives."
Kajal further added, "We were used to meeting all the time. Whether it was a social party or an important professional endeavour, the other one would always show up. So, amidst the lockdown, when we didn’t see each other for a few weeks—at best, we would catch a glimpse behind a mask at a grocery store—we realised that we wanted to be together."
When asked if Gautam went down on one knee to propose to her, Kajal said that he did not, instead, they talked about marriage.
"Gautam is understated when it comes to romance. He’s not the filmy sort, and I am grateful for it because I have enough of that in my films. So, it wasn’t a proposal with all of the jazz, but it was an extremely heartfelt, emotional conversation between us. He was so authentic about his feelings and the way he expressed how he wanted to have a future with me; I couldn’t be surer about spending my life with him!"
Kajal and Gautam got married on October 30. Kajal shared several pictures of the two of them from their small and intimate ceremony. "We strictly followed covid protocols which meant we had to have a very small wedding, got all our guests tested and created a bubble for everyone who was a part of our celebration. We are very grateful for all our loved ones that were able to attend and those who joined virtually from afar were terribly missed and we hope to see you all soon," she wrote on Instagram.
