Lock Upp fame Payal Rohatgi and Sangram Singh to tie the knot on July 9

Ever since Sangram Singh announced on Lock Upp that he would tie the knot with Payal Rohatgi in July, speculations have been rife over the date. Earlier it was reported that the two will tie the knot on July 21, but  Sangram during a recent interview confirmed that the date is July 9.

He said, “I am both excited and nervous. We have been together for so long. Shaadi ek important aspect hai hamaari life ka and we hope to stay happy and blessed as we embark on a new journey together. Payal and I will get married on July 9. My mother and sister helped us finalize the date. We are currently in the process of zeroing in on the venue. We will have a destination wedding, which will be a low-key affair, either in Ahmedabad or Udaipur.”

Talking about their marriage plans and why they had to delay it for so long, Sangram said, “The plan had to be suspended twice because we suffered the loss of our dear ones. I always knew that I wouldn’t get a partner like Payal and it was only a matter of time before we got married. Neither Payal nor her family has ever forced me to take the plunge. Par ab hamaare parents old ho gaye hain aur hamein itne saal saath mein ho gaye hain aur phir karni hai toh karni hai.”

Talking about their mantra to a successful long relationship, Sangram said, “Payal and I are like chalk and cheese. She is brutally honest and I think before I speak. But what binds us together is our understanding. A relationship isn’t all about messaging or posting ‘I love you’ for each other. A couple has its share of tiffs, which happens in every relationship, be it with your parents, siblings, or friends. I believe that aapka virodh vichaaron se hona chahiye vyakti se nahi. Payal and I follow this rule to the T. So if we fight, we reconcile in no time. Baaki meri English theek ho gayi hai ab jhagde English mein hote hain. Initially, I wouldn’t understand what she said during a fight (laughs!).”
