Tina Philip & Nikhil Sharma Postpone Their Wedding!

TV actors Tina Philip and Nikhil Sharma, who were all set to tie the knot on April 4 in Mumbai, have postponed their wedding due to the coronavirus crisis.

Tina says, “We were planning to have two weddings — a Christian wedding in Mumbai on April 4 and a Hindu wedding in Haridwar at a later date. My relatives from the UK, US and the Middle East were supposed to attend the wedding. However, we have postponed both the ceremonies now. I have heard of some couples getting married with just their parents in attendance, and postponing the celebrations to a later date. 

Unfortunately, we can’t even do that as my parents are in the UK and will not able to fly to India.”The actress further adds, “We had booked the venue and hotel rooms for our guests coming from out of the city. Fortunately, most organisers have agreed to work things out whenever we plan another date. My friends joke that when Nikhil and I organise everything again, we will be well equipped to turn wedding planners!”

Disappointed with the unforeseen crisis, Tina says, “I was eagerly waiting for my big day; Nikhil and I were looking forward to it. We waited for eight months after our engagement as we wanted to have enough time to plan the wedding perfectly. I was also looking forward to meeting my parents, extended family and friends under one roof. I feel bad about the losses they would have incurred with so many cancellations of flight tickets.”
