Actress Swara Bhasker and political activist Fahad Ahmad complete a year of marriage today. On February 16, 2023, the couple made their union legal under the Special Marriage Act (SMA) in the presence of their family members. A month later in March, they celebrated their union with a 10-day feast following both Hindi and Muslim traditions. As they complete a year, Swara shared the story of their love and friendship. She revealed that they first met at the CAA-NRC protests in Delhi where they became friends and eventually partners. 

In a collaborative post with the India Love Project, Swara spoke, "‘Wise men say, only fools rush in…’ Fahad & I certainly rushed into marriage, but were friends for 3 years prior. It was a love neither of us noticed blossoming, perhaps because the differences between us were many."
