Kapil recalled how the couple was spotted coming out of a cafe in Mumbai and quipped, “We had thought that Parineeti was joining politics. Who would have thought you would be joining each other?” He later asked them about their first meeting. Parineeti said, “We first met in London. We were getting an award from the British Council. He was getting an award for excellence in governance and politics, and I was getting one in entertainment. Both my younger brothers are huge fans of him and asked me to say hi to him. By chance, he was just sitting right behind me. When I went to tell him hi, I just casually told him we should meet sometime once back in Delhi, and he just invited me to breakfast the next day.”
Raghav added, “Main ne mauke pe chauka maara.” Parineeti further said, “I thought things were getting serious, so I took five people along with me. He also had two organizers with him, so we were around 12 to 15 people at that table. Later, he took my number and we started talking. Right from our first meeting, we spoke about getting married. He had fallen in love at first sight. And when I met him, I thought I would get married to him, till then I knew nothing about him.”
Later, Raghav went on to share what Parineeti did soon after their first date. He said, “She often shares that after that meeting, she checked on Google what my age was and if I was married. She even googled what the duties of a Member of Parliament are.” Parineeti added, “Another important question I googled was what was his height? Because I always liked tall men. He was taller than me, so I was like he was perfect. We did the roka in the next 3-4 months after that, and waited for the rains to get over to get married.”
Parineeti Chopra and Raghav Chadha tied the knot in September 2023. As they approach their second wedding anniversary, Parineeti is rumored to be pregnant. Addressing the speculation on The Great Indian Kapil Show, Raghav said they would share the good news soon.
