Rajkummar Rao and his girlfriend, actor Patralekhaa, are reportedly tying the knot today in Chandigarh in a private ceremony. The couple will have a very close-knit wedding ceremony with only selected guests from the film industry, according to an ETimes report.

“It is going to be a very close affair for Rajkummar Rao, 37, and Patralekhaa, 32. They have invited only select guests from the film industry,” ETimes quoted a source as saying on Tuesday. Patralekhaa’s family has already arrived at the wedding venue in Chandigarh, according to the source, while Rajkummar’s family will arrive soon.

 “Rajkummar and Patralekhaa wanted to keep the wedding small and private due to Covid concerns. That’s why they have a limited guest list and have opted for Chandigarh,” added the source, reported ETimes.

Rajkummar Rao and Patralekhaa, who have been dating for quite some time, have yet to make any kind of announcement about their rumoured wedding. ETimes reported a few days ago that the couple will marry in a low-key ceremony between November 11-13.

Their love story is like something out of a fairy tale: he first saw her in an advertisement and wished to meet her in person. Lo and behold, he met her a month later, and they fell in love almost instantly. They have been together for more than seven years.

Patralekhaa made her Bollywood debut in the 2014 film City Lights, opposite Rajkummar Rao. Rajkummar had already starred in critically acclaimed films such as Kai Po Che!, Shahid, Omerta, Aligarh, and Love Sonia at this point. 

With Love, Sex, aur Dhokha, Rajkummar Rao made his Bollywood debut. In the 2013 film Kai Po Che!, he had his breakthrough role. In addition to City Lights, Rajkummar has appeared in critically acclaimed films such as Shahid, Omerta, The White Tiger and Aligarh. For his role in Shahid, he won the National Film Award for Best Actor. Hum Do Hamare Do and Roohi are two of his recent films.
