Rakul Preet Singh and Jackky Bhagnani's wedding
Bollywood stars Rakul Preet Singh and Jackky Bhagnani have chosen to tie the knot in an intimate two-day celebration, set to conclude on February 21 in Goa. The couple had originally planned a destination wedding overseas. But they made a last-minute decision to align with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's call for families to host their wedding festivities within India.
A source close to the soon-to-be-married couple revealed, "Rakul and Jacky had initially planned for their wedding to take place in the Middle East. After nearly six months of meticulous planning, everything was pretty much in order."
"However, following the call from the Indian PM in December, urging rich and influential families to choose India as the venue for their big life events, Rakul and Jackky reconsidered their original plans and relocated the wedding to India. Their decision, made in mid-December, necessitated a complete reset, involving the destination and accommodations. Despite the considerable changes, the couple embraced the overhaul, driven by their love for the country and desire to contribute to its growing economy."
Hosting the wedding in India aligns with economic goals, providing a boost to the local wedding industry. This choice exemplifies their commitment to supporting the nation's economy and promoting the richness of Indian celebrations.
Meanwhile, after delivering a blockbuster 2023, the actress is gearing up for some of the most exciting projects in 2024 which include Made In India and Indian 2, amongst many others.
