Karan V Grover and Poppy Jabbal on their marriage; says, “We have been together for 10 years, marriage was the ideal next step”

Actor-couple Karan V Grover and Poppy Jabbal, who has been in a relationship for 10 years are now married. The couple tied the knot in a traditional Anand Karaj ceremony in Chail, Himachal Pradesh, on May 31 in the presence of close friends and family.

During a recent interview with BT, the couple talked about it and shared, “The decision to get married was taken just a few weeks earlier. Since we love exploring the mountains and trek a lot, we found this beautiful place called Chail. It looked like the perfect destination to get married. We did not have any elaborate functions, it was a one-day affair. Our families were overjoyed because they have been wanting this for years.”

Talking about life post marriage, Poppy said, “We are wearing rings with our marriage date on them and though nothing has changed, it feels good that I am married to the man who has always showered love and affection on me and my family.”

Over the past few years, Karan maintained that he had no plans to get married. When asked about this, he said, “In my mind, I still maintain that once you are committed to someone, it is forever and since we were together for 10 years, the thought of marriage did not cross our minds. But during the pandemic, we were very concerned about our families. Secondly, I was shooting in Mohali for my TV show for a few months and later traveled to the UK, so we were in a long-distance relationship for a while. This prompted us to think about whether we should give our relationship a permanent status. Also, we have been together for a long time now, so marriage was the ideal next step.”

Poppy added, “A few months back, my father was a little unwell and Karan was my biggest support. Karan is extremely loving and caring and I like that quality about him. More than anything, I have known him for a decade now, so marriage seemed ideal.”

Talking about how Poppy has been his backbone, Karan said, “Poppy is like my backbone, always there to support and she is very efficient in everything she does. If I will wear a white sherwani, she will make it look beautiful with nice buttons on them.”

On the work front, Karan will soon be seen playing the lead in Sandiip Sikcand’s upcoming TV show Bahot Pyaar Karte Hain. He said, “I will start shooting for the show in Madh Island soon. My track in Udaariyaan is over.”

When asked about their honeymoon plans, Karan joked and said, “Our honeymoon will be in Goregoan at my residence in a high-rise building that has a beautiful skyline and oversees Mumbai buildings (laughs). Jokes apart, work will keep us busy for some time. Poppy will be traveling for her web show, but we do plan to have a wedding reception soon for our friends.”
