Well, we could have received the good news earlier this year, but thanks to coronavirus, it isn’t happening anytime soon, reported Hindustan Times. Hence, releasing a statement, the couple announced the delay in their wedding. “Given the current scenario and the unfortunate turn of events owing to the COVID-19 pandemic globally, Ali Fazal and Richa Chadha have decided to postpone their wedding functions to the later half of 2020 tentatively. They wish for everyone to be healthy and safe and at no cost would want their friends, families and well-wishers to be affected.” But thankfully, the couple did a photoshoot together and were featured on the cover of a bridal-themed magazine.

In an interview to the magazine, Richa divulged how she said the three magical worlds to Ali. “We were at my house watching the 1992 biographical comedy, Chaplin. I was happy to see him enjoy the movie and grateful to have found someone with similar tastes. That is when I said, ‘This is really sweet, I love you’, to him.” But she added that it took him three months to say ‘I love you’ back to her, reported The Indian Express.

However, the ‘Gangs Of Wasseypur’ actor said that Ali’s proposal was really thoughtful. Hindustan Times quotes her saying, “He had planned a romantic dinner on a small, secluded island in the Maldives. I thought it was for my birthday. I didn’t suspect a thing. We had finished eating and were sipping champagne when Ali, being his spontaneous self, asked me to marry him.”

“He didn’t go down on his knee, nor did he have a ring but that’s all right. After that, he took a 10- minute long nap on the sand.”

“I think it was because he may have been stressed about the proposal,” she exclaimed.

Opening up about one of the many reasons why he loves Richa so much, Ali said:

“She thinks I fell in love with her only because of her clumsiness and it surely is one of the reasons. She is as clumsy as it gets.”

“If she is eating, there will be glasses spilling, food will be all over the place, and cutlery will definitely fall.”

He also shared one of the most embarrassing moments of his bride-to-be. “Her most embarrassing clumsy moment was in Venice. It was at a fine dining event and Judi Dench was sitting at the next table. Suddenly a bean went flying over – of course, it was from Richa’s plate. She calls it her Pretty Woman moment.”

We wish the couple a lifetime of happiness together.
