Actor Swara Bhasker, praised online for her simple engagement announcement to Samajwadi Party leader Fahad Ahmad, also shared a funny meme by fan hinting at her plans for her March wedding. She joked and wrote that the Twitter user 'has read every thought in my head'.

On Thursday, Swara Bhasker revealed that she was engaged to Samajwadi Party leader Fahad Ahmad. The couple registered their marriage on the same day, surrounded by family and good friends. They also shared that their wedding will take place next month in Delhi. Since then, the actor has been praised only for her straightforward and low-key celebrations. Swara also jokingly shared a meme sent by a fan to her, which indicated that she might want to have a grand wedding in March. She wrote that the fan 'has read every thought in my head'.

Swara Bhasker and Fahad Ahmad got engaged on February 17.

Swara had shared photos of herself and Fahad signing the papers to register their marriage. She had written on Twitter on February 17, "Three cheers for the #SpecialMarriageAct (despite notice period etc.) At least it exists & gives love a chance… The right to love, the right to choose your life partner, the right to marry, the right to agency these should not be a privilege.@FahadZirarAhmad." Twitter users had lauded the couple for their simple methods for their engagement celebrations.

On Saturday, she also jokingly responded to a fan who made a meme using US TV show, The Office, with Steve Carrell. The meme showed Steve's clueless office employee shaking the hand of his boss with the statement, "People lauding the simplicity of Swara Bhasker's wedding / Swara Bhasker, who had planned a grand celebration in March." Swara wrote, adding laughing face and hugs emojis, "Samanvay [the Twitter user] has read every thought in my head."

Earlier this week, the bride-to-be also wrote about how the craze to have a big fat wedding for couples leads them right into debt as they start their life. She wrote in a column for The Week, "The social media-fuelled wedding mania has also led to a fundamental shift in our fiscal values. This is a shift that consumer capitalism enabled EMI culture of ‘work hard, spend big’ has already engendered in the millennial generation, but the fantasy wedding craze generates a whole other set of fiscal habits. And, these are not very healthy!"

Swara was last seen in the film Jahaan Chaar Yaar and also has the upcoming feature Mrs Falani in the pipeline. She made her acting debut with the 2009 film Madholal Keep Walking and had her breakthrough role with Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Guzaarish in 2010.
