Sangeeta also shared glimpses from her pre-wedding ceremonies on Instagram along with her sisters. The wedding took place in Balali, Haryana. Earlier, Sangeeta had shared a series of photos from her Haldi ceremony, wearing floral jewellery and dressing in yellow, twinning with sisters Geeta and Babita Phogat.

Previously, she had said in an interview, “We (Bajrang and I) do not talk about marriage a lot. He is focused on the Olympics and is working hard for it. He has my full support and the wedding can wait if it has to”. Bajrang also took to Twitter and Instagram to post two photographs of the wedding reception.
