Prateik Babbar got engaged to girlfriend Sanya Sagar yesterday. Though the two have known each other for over eight years, they started seeing each other only after Sanya returned from London last year after finishing her post graduation in filmmaking from Goldsmiths University. The couple exchanged rings at Sanya’s Lucknow farmhouse.
Soon after getting engaged to Sanya, Prateik spoke to Mumbai Mirror about their big day. He said, “Sanya and I, along with our families, decided that something as pure as love should be solemnised on an auspicious day and what better day than Basant Panchami. She’s the best partner I could have asked for. It didn’t take me long to figure out that she was the one for me. I know it sounds clichéd, but I can’t stop counting my blessings and thanking God for all the good that is happening in my life.”
Prateik and Sanya are yet to decide on a wedding date as of now. The couple will have separate functions in Mumbai, Lucknow and Delhi after they get married for their close friends and well-wishers. The actor is keen on enjoying a long courtship period before tying the know. He told the tabloid, “We want to enjoy this courtship period for a year or two; Sanya will shuttle between Mumbai and Lucknow. We haven’t thought about the wedding yet, but if I had my way, I would love a beach wedding or a simple temple wedding.”
