Having dated for a couple of months now, Juhi Parmar and Sachin Shroff have decided it's working between them.
The couple will marry on February 15 in Jaipur, Juhi's hometown.
"Kundali nahi milvaayi thi par shaadi ka muhurat nikalvaya tha," says
Juhi, adding that when the Pandit scanned the dates for the mahurat he
made no remark about the stars not being in alignment. "I guess
everything was fine otherwise he would have surely said something," she
added.
A while ago, while Sachin was open about his relationship with Juhi, he said he had not gone so far as to propose to her.
So when did this happen exactly? We asked him. He said there was no
change. "Ab tak nahi kiya… shaadi ho jaane do, propose bhi kar loonga!".
Kumkum actress Juhi plans to mix the rituals of her (Rajasthani) and
Sachin's (Sindhi) cultures. For this she is in constant touch with her
mother and her mother-in-law-to-be through phone and mails.
The lovers plan to exchange rings a day before the wedding -
Valentine's Day. So why was the marriage not fixed for that day
instead, the day for lovers? Juhi laughs: "That is what Sachin wanted,
so that he then would have to give me just one gift for both occasions…
but I wanted two separate gifts".
So what kind of gifts was she expecting from her beau? "That really
doesn't matter… it's the gesture that matters for me," she says.
We asked Sachin what his dream wedding would be like. He had no
opinion. "Wo sab madam handle kar rahi hain. I told her: ki main ghodi
par nahin chadhoonga but she clearly told me ki wo toh chadhna hi
padega…".
Juhi said she wanted a big fat wedding and had planned for all the
ceremonies, including mehndi, ladies sangeet and every minute ritual.
Juhi and Sachin have been friends for five years, but came close when
Juhi broke up with actor-producer Anuj Saxena, whom she was dating.
After her break-up, Juhi and Sachin went out for a while and then went
public with their relationship. Their parents also approved.
Juhi says she always dreamt of being married in Jaipur. She says
marriages can take place in a grand way there. While the list of their
honeymoon destinations seems to be pretty long, one place that lies top
on the list is New Zealand.
