Entertainment Desk, New Delhi. Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma stand out as one of Bollywood’s most beloved couples, capturing the hearts of many with their endearing bond. Since tying the knot in 2017, the duo has expanded their family and is now proud parents of two adorable children, Akshay and Vamika.
Challenges Brought by Rain
The wedding of Anushka and Virat was a private affair held in Italy, attended by their closest friends and family. In a recent interview, their wedding photographer Vishal Punjabi elaborated on the complications that arose due to rain, which significantly impacted the proceedings.
The Wedding Planner’s Sleepless Night
In a conversation with Adhunika Singh on her YouTube channel, Vishal Punjabi shared that the day of the wedding was marred by rain, leading to a sudden change in the venue. He explained that the couple’s wedding planner had a restless night, tirelessly working to relocate the pavilion to a different site. According to Vishal, the team was unaware until the last moment whose wedding they were actually shooting, as it was meant to be a discreet event with only 40 attendees. The unexpected rain caused considerable disruption, and the planners faced significant challenges in finding an alternative location for the ceremony.
Vishal’s Unique Perspective
Devika Narayan, the wedding planner, was reportedly awake all night, overseeing the logistics of moving the pavilion. Interestingly, Virat and Anushka had not previously seen Vishal’s work but placed their full trust in their wedding planners. Vishal recalled his first meeting with the couple as heartwarming, stating they welcomed him with open arms. He expressed, “They provided me with complete freedom, and I felt a unique sense of spirituality at the wedding. There was a divine love not only for each other but also for the presence of God, creating an ethereal atmosphere.”
