Bollywood actors Kriti Kharbanda and Pulkit Samrat tied the knot in an intimate yet grand wedding ceremony on March 16, 2024.

Kriti Kharbanda and Pulkit Samrat reveals being in live-in before marriage
When Karan asked about their life after marriage, Pulkit exclaimed, “It’s beautiful. More than married life, I think we are best friends and best roommates. I think that’s what keeps the relationship alive.” Kriti added, “I fully recommend marriage, 100 per cent. I am a big propagator of the belief that when you find love, you must do everything to keep it in your life.”
Karan then recalled his experience of sharing a room with his best friends on a yacht, revealing that it made him realise how difficult it can be to share your personal space with someone. Responding to this, Pulkit said, “Because of that, both of us are big advocates of living together before deciding to get married. That’s the best thing to do. We were in a live-in relationship for two years.” Kriti added, “During Covid, we were together but not living in the same apartment. Post Covid, we properly moved in together. We found a house that wasn’t his or mine, but ours, and then built that home together.”
Kriti and Pulkit dated for a brief period before tying the knot at Delhi NCR’s ITC Grand Bharat in March 2024. Sharing pictures from their wedding, the couple wrote in a joint Instagram post, “From the deep blue sky, to the morning dew. Through the low and the high, it’s only you. From the start to the end, in every now and every then, when my heart beats different, it’s got to be you. Constantly, consistently, continually, you!”
