Singer Monali Thakur has made a startling revelation as she confessed that she has been married to Maik Richter, a Switzerland-based restaurateur, since 2017. Since they did not have a conventional wedding she kept her marital status a secret. In an interview to a leading daily, she said that the news of her marriage will come as a shock to many and she will get a lot of scolding from her friends.
She said, “The news of my marriage will come as a shock to many as none of my industry friends were aware or invited. We kept delaying the ceremony and announcement and three years just passed by. Mujhe pata hai bahot gaali padne wali hai logon se (I know people will be very angry with me), but I think when we have our wedding ceremony and invite people for the celebrations, they won’t be upset anymore.”
She also revealed details of the romantic proposal and said, “I met Maik during my trip to Switzerland and we clicked instantly. Not just him, I made a connection with his family, too. Maik proposed to me at the exact spot where we had met for the first time, under a tree, on a freezing Christmas Eve 2016. My reply was an instant yes.”
Monali ad Maik are currently quarantining in Switzerland together with his family. They have not zeroed down on a wedding date yet but will finalize things once the situation turns to normalcy and the coronavirus pandemic abates.
