The much-anticipated matrimonial ceremony between Bollywood’s celebrated actors Pulkit Samrat and Kriti Kharbanda is finally unfolding against the serene backdrop of the Aravalli Range. Chosen with heartfelt intent, the ITC Grand Bharat in Manesar, Haryana, serves as the chosen venue, a testament to their roots, as both actors hail from the vibrant city of Delhi, their families residing in the National Capital Region.
The pre-wedding festivities began in earnest on Wednesday when Pulkit Samrat was sighted departing his residence, fully embracing the spirit of the momentous Haldi ceremony. The groom-to-be captured the essence of tradition in a resplendent yellow embroidered kurta, tastefully adorned with white intricate detailing, complemented by a pair of classic black sunglasses that added a contemporary twist to his ceremonial garb. His departure, caught on camera, has since captivated fans and well-wishers alike, sparking a buzz of excitement across social media platforms.
On Instagram, a video shared by popular celebrity photographer Viral Bhayani encapsulates the actor’s poise and joy as he steps into the celebration of his and Kriti’s upcoming union.
The couple’s onscreen chemistry, palpable in films such as ‘Veerey Ki Wedding’, ‘Taish’, and ‘Pagalpanti’, translated into a real-life romance that has flourished over the years. Pulkit, who was previously married to Shweta Rohira, has this time found love with co-star Kriti, creating a stirring narrative of love rekindled within the glitzy domain of Indian cinema.
Speculation of their impending nuptials reached a fever pitch following Valentine’s Day when the duo expressed their affection for each other through romantically-charged Instagram posts. Kriti’s message, “Let’s March together, hand in hand #happyvalentinesday,” paired with an endearing image of the duo, was Lucidly suggestive of their marital plans. Pulkit, not to be outdone, reciprocated with an evocative photo of the couple, sailing through an exotic locale and captioned poetically: “Dancing on the edge of a leap! I do, I do, I do love you.. @kriti.kharbanda.”
On the professional front, Pulkit has been in the public eye recently, leveraging his comedic prowess in the third installment of the ‘Fukrey’ franchise. Directed by Mrighdeep Singh Lamba and produced by Excel Entertainment, the film features an ensemble cast including Varun Sharma, Pankaj Tripathi, Richa Chadha, and Manjot Singh. Pulkit also made his presence felt in a brief stint on Zoya Akhtar’s acclaimed web show ‘Made in Heaven’ Season 2.
Kriti, whose journey in the film industry began with the Telugu film ‘Boni’ in 2009, etched her place in Bollywood with her remarkable performance in ‘Raaz: Reboot’ in 2016. Her career trajectory took a stratospheric surge after her acclaimed role in the hit film ‘Shaadi Mein Zaroor Aana’. The actress continues her cinematic voyage and is set to grace the silver screen in ‘Risky Romeo’, a comedy by Abir Sengupta featuring Sunny Singh.
As fans across the country and beyond watch with bated breath, the couple steps closer to the eternal bond of matrimony, surrounded by the grandeur of the Aravalli Hills and the love of their families. The Haldi ceremony is but a prelude to the myriad celebrations that await Pulkit Samrat and Kriti Kharbanda as they embark on their journey together as husband and wife.
