Television actor Adrija Roy, currently seen as Raahi in Anupamaa, is set to get engaged to Mumbai-based Vignuesh Iyer on January 25. The intimate ceremony will be held at his farmhouse and is expected to be attended by close family members and friends, according to a news report by The Times of India.
Adrija and Vignuesh to get engaged on the weekend
On what drew them together, the actor said, “I think it was our personalities that brought us closer. We are both very soft and down-to-earth. I had always wanted to be with someone outside my industry, and he felt just right. We feel like soulmates.”
Their shared love for animals also strengthened their bond. Adrija mentioned that her future husband has around 260 dogs and also takes care of cows at his farmhouse, which was a common connection between the two.
For the engagement ceremony, Adrija mentioned that she had applied for three days’ leave from Anupamaa. She credited her production team for being understanding and accommodating.
As for wedding plans, the couple is not rushing. Adrija explained, “We don’t plan to get married this year. He is South Indian (Tamil), and I am Bengali, so our cultures are completely different. My dream is to have a wedding that follows both South Indian and Bengali traditions. That needs proper time and planning, so we are thinking of getting married within the next two years.”
