Prateik Babbar and Priya Bannerjee got married in an intimate setting at the former’s late mother, Smita Patil’s, house in Bandra, Mumbai. The wedding was a private affair with only the closest family members and family attending the ceremonies such as Haldi and Mehendi. However, the absence of Prateik’s father, Raj Babbar, and his half siblings, Aarya Babbar and Juuhi Babbar, sparked speculation.
The couple has finally ended their silence, and during a conversation with Hindustan Times, Priya said that no important family member was absent.
“There was absolutely no family member who was missing from the wedding or our celebrations. I don’t know why there are rumours that “family members” were absent. Our families where there including my parents, his aunts who raised him, his nana-nani and everyone who mattered and is family was with us. And there was absolutely nobody who is family was missing,” she stated.
The couple had always been open about their relationship, however, the sudden marriage took some of us by surprise. Reflecting on the transition, Priya said that it did not feel any different because they have lived together for almost five years before tying the knot. “More than that, I felt like I had known him forever. It felt the same,” added Priya.
