A year ago, Pawan went to Agra and met her, where they both saw the symbol of love, the Taj Mahal together. Along with this, they also decided to get married.
Video of the marriage shared by ANI showed Christen Liebert, dressed in an Indian wedding dress, putting the garland around the groom's neck during the varmala ceremony.
