Richa Chadha has recently shared some insights into her official union with Ali Fazal, a commitment that got life in 2020, but not publicly revealed until two years later. The couple opted for an interfaith wedding, tying the knot under the Special Marriage Act due to their differing religious affiliations.
Richa shed light on the process, mentioning, “Under the Special Marriage Act, your name is displayed on a public notice board for a month, which, I must say, seems quite peculiar. India is no stranger to challenges surrounding marriage, such as honor killings, and making such information public can be a cause for concern. Thankfully, we managed to maintain our privacy, thanks to the circumstances of the Covid era when fewer people were visiting family courts.”
Despite originally planning a wedding celebration for 2020, the pandemic necessitated a delay in their festivities. However, their legal marriage occurred as scheduled, and they later commemorated their union with close friends and family in 2022.
