Suniel further disclosed that the wedding reception will be hosted after the Indian Premier League (IPL) season. The wedding was attended by Bollywood celebrities including Diana Penty, Krishna Shroff, Anshula Kapoor, Anushka Ranjan and Aditya Seal. Cricketers Varun Aaron and Ishant Sharma, with wife Pratima Singh, also appeared.
Hours after their wedding the duo shared the special captured moments on the Instagram handles. They penned down in the joint post, “In your light, I learn how to love… Today, with our most loved ones, we got married in the home that’s given us immense joy and serenity. With a heart full of gratitude and love, we seek your blessings on this journey of togetherness.”
Suniel during an appearance in the Kapil Sharma Show revealed the first time he met KL Rahul in an airport in 2019. Later while speaking to the news agency, Mid-Day, Suniel averred, “I had the pleasure of meeting Rahul first at an airport. I was thrilled to learn that he was from Mangalore, my hometown. I was a big fan of him and was happy to see that he was doing well. When I came home and shared the news with Athiya and [wife] Mana, they didn’t say much; they just exchanged looks with each other. Later, Mana came to me and said that Athiya and Rahul [were on] talking terms.”
He further added, “I was surprised that Athiya had not mentioned it to me. [At the same time], I was happy as I always told Athiya to connect with south Indian boys. Rahul’s house in Mangalore [where his parents live] is only a few kilometres away from my birthplace [Mulki]. So, this was a happy coincidence.”
