Bollywood actress Pooja Batra tied the knot with boyfriend Nawab Shah in a hush-hush ceremony in Delhi according to Arya Samaj traditions on July 4.
It was just yesterday, when Pooja confirmed their wedding and revealed that they tied the knot in presence of their family and close friends.
And now, Nawab Shah spilled the beans on their secret marriage. While talking to Bombay Times, the actor said, “One has to be ready to experience something like this, and I guess, Pooja and I were in that space. It was as if we were destined to be together. We didn’t want to think about it too much and delay it (marriage) any further. Both of us have gone through various phases in life and have matured over the years.”

He further told the paper, “When I reconnected with her, a relationship wasn’t on my mind. However, at this stage in life, you feel the void of not having a companion. Pooja Batra entered my life like sunshine and I was sure that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her. In fact, I wanted to marry her right after our first meeting.”
He further added, “Pooja is a lovely soul and a great person, and that’s important to me. Romance happens on its own and is an organic process. We are on the same wavelength and are alike. We had no doubts about the relationship or each other, which is rare in today’s day and age. We connected so beautifully that everything came together for us.”
Speaking about their hush-hush wedding, Nawab Shah said, “We hadn’t planned anything. We were just ready to start a life together and grow together. There was no point in wasting any time and that’s why it happened suddenly. In fact, I tell her that we have less time together as we took some time to get married. I am glad that everything fell in place.”
Pooja also posted this picture of herself with Nawab Shah dressed in wedding couture and wrote, “Thank you for all your good wishes and blessings.”
Earlier also she shared a picture of herself from her D-Day. She captioned it as, “All dolled up before an event Styled by @gentleman_gaga@geishadesigns @hemakhasturilabel📸 by @light_chamber”
