Kajal Aggarwal married her longtime beau Gautam Kitchlu in an intimate ceremony in Mumbai on October 30. The grand ceremony was attended only by close friends and relatives. Kajal, delighting all her fans, shared inside pictures from the Punjabi meets Kashmiri wedding. The couple tied the knot according to Telugu rituals too. Now, in an interview with a magazine, Kajal spilled the beans about her relationship with Gautam. The actress revealed that they dated each other for 3 years and were friends for 7 years. It was only during the lockdown that they realised it is the right time to take their relationship forward. 

"Gautam and I dated for about three years, and then we were friends for seven. We have progressed in every stage of being friends and been very important in each other’s lives. We were used to meeting all the time. Whether it was a social party or an important professional endeavour, the other one would always show up. So, amidst the lockdown, when we didn’t see each other for a few weeks—at best, we would catch a glimpse behind a mask at a grocery store—we realised that we wanted to be together," Kajal told.

Planning a wedding entails so many moving parts and added to that the pandemic definitely was a challenge. However we strictly followed covid protocols which meant we had to have a very small wedding, got all our guests tested and created a bubble for everyone who was a part of our celebration. We are very grateful for all our loved ones that were able to attend and those who joined virtually from afar were terribly missed and we hope to see you all soon.

Kajal further added that Gautam didn't go down on one knee. Calling him 'understated' and not 'filmy', Kajal said, "Gautam is understated when it comes to romance. He’s not the filmy sort, and I am grateful for it because I have enough of that in my films. So, it wasn’t a proposal with all of the jazz, but it was an extremely heartfelt, emotional conversation between us. He was so authentic about his feelings and the way he expressed how he wanted to have a future with me; I couldn’t be surer about spending my life with him!"
