Actors Richa Chadha and Ali Fazal were set to tie the knot in April 2020 but their plans had to be put on hold due to the pandemic. After recent reports that they have chosen March 2022 for their wedding, with only family and close friends in attendance and functions in Delhi and Mumbai, we reached out to Fazal for details.

“We’ve been dying to do this (get married). Earlier, there was the lockdown, then the second wave… hence, the delay. Moreover, when things opened up, both of us had to wrap up pending shoots, so there was no time,” Fazal says.

The actor, who is shooting in Saudi Arabia for the Hollywood project Kandahar, will be there till January end. Pointing out that he’s often asked about his wedding date, he adds, “As for March 2022... maybe. But right now, I’m clueless. We’re trying to make it work.”

The couple met on the sets of their film Fukrey (2013), and in December 2019, Fazal proposed to Chadha on her birthday while on vacation in the Maldives.
