Rakul Preet and Jackky Bhangani tied the knot this February 21. The couple had a lavish beach wedding in South Goa with families and close friends from the industry attending the event. They met each other during the pandemic, and despite being neighbors for a while and sharing a circle of mutual friends, they didn’t get the chance to get to know each other before the lockdown. The duo went public about their relationship in 2021 when Jackky shared a sweet message on Instagram for Rakul’s birthday “ On your special day, I want to express my admiration for the one who always leaves me in awe. With you, every day feels like an incredible journey, and there’s never a dull moment. You’re more than just my companion; you’re my confidant, my partner-in-crime, and the one who fills my life with love and laughter.On your big day, I wish you everything you have ever dreamt of and more. May all your dreams come true because you only and only deserve the absolute best in life.Happy Birthday to the one who makes every day extraordinary! 🎂🎈🥂”

They kickstarted their pre-wedding festivities with dhol night in Mumbai followed by sangeet, mehendi, and haldi at ITC Goa.
