Kajal Aggarwal's husband Gautam Kitchlu recalls their first meet, says he did not know who she was

Gautam and Kajal Aggarwal

Actress Kajal Aggarwal started a series on her Instagram feed where her loved ones talk about her. The series begins with her role as daughter where her parents talk about her. It was followed by her role as a sister and then as a daughter-in-law. In the fourth video of the series, her husband Gautam Kitchlu speaks about what it is to be married to a 'wonder woman' like Kajal.

"You would like to know what it is to be the husband to a wonder woman?" says Gautam Kitchlu in the video before explaining how it is difficult to keep track of where Kajal is at the moment. The actress travels between Chennai, Hyderabad and Mumbai or her work.

Gautam and Kajal got married in October 2020. They had an intimate ceremony in Mumbai owing to the pandemic. Kajal had managed to keep her relationship with Gautam a secret and opened up about it only when she got engaged to him.

In the latest video uploaded by Kajal on her Instagram page, Gautam recalled the first time he saw her and was mesmerised. He revealed that he first saw Kajal at a friend's wedding where she was dancing. Pretty filmy, right? However, Gautam was not aware of who Kajal was or what she did for a living. "The first time Kajal and I met, it was at a friend's sangeet and I had watched the bride's side doing the dances and I was from the groom's side. I saw this girl in a white and blue suit and she was dancing like a professional. I didn't know who she was. I went up to my friend a little later and told him, 'Listen, I need to be introduced to her'. So he said 'okay, wait a while, I'll get you her phone number'."

"I think a couple of days later he got me her phone number and just texted her I think that's how we set up our first meeting," he added and the rest, as they say, is history.

The couple had a traditional Hindu wedding in 2020 in the presence of their family and close friends. In 2022, the couple welcomed their son, Neil.

On the work front:

On the work front, Kajal Agarwal is gearing up for the release of her film 'Satyabhama' where she will be seen playing the role of a cop. She also has 'Indian 2' with Kamal Haasan in the pipeline, scheduled for release this year.

In a recent interview with Galatta Plus, Kajal revaled that she shot for 'Indian 2' soon after giving birth. "I had my commitments before I got married-in COVID-which I honoured and travelled a lot for it. It was difficult for my husband to understand that initially because he has never seen what our industry is about. I finished the films that I had to do, got pregnant, and right after I delivered my child, I did Indian 2, which has possibly been the hardest role of my life," she said.

"It was physically demanding, I had to be strong to do that. I was horse riding! That was still a ‘strong' role, which I had signed four years ago. I am glad Shankar sir waited me for and asked me to come in his last schedule. Yet, it was so hard for me," she added.
