Sharing a picture of herself and Dhurvaditya a day before the wedding, Chitrashi had written on Instagram, "Tis the beginning (sunflower emoji)."
Discussing her wedding with Bombay Times, Chitrashi had revealed, "Dhruv is from Raipur (Chhattisgarh) and we are getting married in Bilaspur. It will be an afternoon wedding. There will be a haldi, mehndi, and cocktail ceremony a day prior when we will also exchange rings.”
She had added, "We had originally wanted to do a court marriage in Dehradun. We had thought ki simple shaadi karenge, paise bachaayenge aur travel karenge (We had thought to do a simple wedding, save money and travel). However, our families got involved, and it was all about yeh sab ek hi baar hoti hai (it only happens once). So, here we are now! Dhruv and I are not looking at it as a wedding affair, but a celebration of our relationship with our families and closest friends."
Besides the sports drama Chak De India in which she made her acting debut, Chitrashi is also known for her work in the films Fashion and Tere Naal Love Ho Gaya. Chitrashi had been a national-level hockey player when she was younger. Her fiancé Dhruvaditya is also an actor; he has appeared in the films Flight, The Grey, and the web series Damaged. He and Chitrashi worked together in the film Prem Mayee.
