In an earlier interview with Humans Of Bombay, Neha disclosed the genesis of her connection with Angad, recounting, “He tells me that he first saw me at the gym when I was 20, told his friends, ‘I’m going to get to know her one day.’ When we moved to Bombay, we met at a mutual friend’s party–it was just us standing on the balcony. I saw a different side of him–beyond the jokes and wit, there was a sensitive man.”Their friendship deepened, providing Neha with his support during times away from home in Bombay. She recalled, “There was no façade and no attempt to impress one another. Well, no attempts on my part. In fact, he was the first call after a major heartbreak, and he talked me through it.” Unexpectedly, Angad proposed sooner than expected, catching Neha off guard. She revealed, “He wasn’t low key about his feelings for me. I was shooting in Punjab and told him about a role for him. He didn’t ask for any details. He only cared about spending time with me and flew down immediately. After that shoot, he showed up at my parents’ doorstep and asked for my hand in marriage. I had no idea about it! This was when I was dating someone else. When Angad met my boyfriend, he was nice to him but wasn’t subtle about his love for me.”
Their wedding, organized hastily, required Neha to assemble her wedding trousseau in just two days. She recalled, “When we finally decided to get married, he didn’t go down on one knee and propose. He told me I’d already wasted 4 years, and declared ‘Chalo Dilli!’ to meet his parents. Then he said, ‘Before you change your mind, pick an outfit because we’re getting married in 2 days’.”
