We announced it to our friends and there was a frenzy. There was top security and people had to get in with their cards or you couldn't enter. So proper top-level stuff and then we came to Bombay to do another celebration for her industry friends, my cricketer friends.”

That's when they realized 'Ok, what they did was the right thing!'” (Do Read: Raj Singh Arora Confirms He Was Never In A Live-In Relationship With Girlfriend Pooja Gor)
Of late, in an interaction with the Vogue, Anushka had shared the details as to how they had managed to keep their wedding a secret. The Pari actress had remarked, “We even used fake names while talking to the caterer; I think Virat’s was Rahul. We wanted to have a home-style wedding. There were only 42 people there, with all our friends and family present. I wanted it to be about Virat and me marrying each other, and not this big celebrity wedding. The energy at our wedding was blessed.”
Speaking about the current state of her life, Anushka had retorted, “I’m in this space where I feel very peaceful, comfortable, self-assured and, I guess, really in touch with myself one hundred per cent. It’s something I’ve been working towards since the very beginning. All the decisions I’ve taken leading up to now have always been keeping that in mind. I base my decisions on what makes me more peaceful, and nothing else. If something makes me anxious and uncomfortable, I won’t do it, even if it’s something that I know I must do.” (Don't Miss: Mira Rajput Kapoor Shares An Adorable Wish For Her Little Munchkin, Zain Kapoor's First Birthday)
