Marriage date ain't fixed yet, hopefully we will do it late this year. Forgive us for not informing you, it was a closed ceremony, but leaks do happen and sorry that you had to know this way.

"Yes, I am in a relationship, a serious relationship. We were planning to get married in 2014, but it didn't happen due to my prior commitments. I always wanted to be with a person who looks his life in a very matured manner," Bhavana had earlier said in an interview aired on Kappa TV.
