Bollywood actors Rakul Preet Singh and Jackky Bhagnani are all set to tie the knot in the presence of their close friends and family members on February 21 in Goa. The couple, originally planned a destination wedding overseas, however, they made a last-minute decision to align with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's call for families to host their wedding festivities in India.
A source close to the couple revealed, "Rakul and Jacky had initially planned for their wedding to take place in the Middle East. After nearly six months of meticulous planning, everything was pretty much in order."
"However, following the call from the Indian PM in December 2023, urging rich and influential families to choose India as the venue for their big life events, Rakul and Jackky reconsidered their original plans and relocated the wedding to India. Their decision, made in mid-December, necessitated a complete reset. Despite the considerable changes, the couple embraced the overhaul, driven by their love for the country and desire to contribute to its growing economy."
