Happu Ki Ultan Paltan lead actress Kamna Pathak tied the knot with her long-time boyfriend Sandeep Shridhar on Thursday with much fanfare in Nagpur. "I am finally getting married to Sandeep (Shridhar). Sandeep, who is an engineer, is an FTII graduate who was last seen in Imtiaz Ali's web series She. We met during one of his plays in Mumbai in 2014. It was love at first sight for me. I didn't tell him of course at that time. And then we did several workshops and plays together. We also had a lot of friends in common. As such neither of us proposed to each other officially," says an excited Kamna.

She adds, "Wedding celebrations are so hectic! Bahot saari rasmein hain. I am getting married in Nagpur and then we will be hosting a reception in Indore, then I will be traveling to Prayagraj for some more rituals as my would-be husband's family is there. We will be going to Kaushambhi for a kul devi pooja near Prayagraj, later. The funny part is that there is no honeymoon for us after our marriage, only poojas and rasams. Also, I have just got 15 days leave from my show so I will be resuming work soon after marriage."

In reel life, however, Kamna plays Dabangg Dulhaniya Rajesh in Happu Ki Ultan Paltan, who is an obstinate mother. In show, Dabangg Dulhaniya Rajesh is shown to have a strong personality and confidently expresses her opinions. She always speaks her mind and does not take things lying down. No one can mess with her. Her Bundelkhand accent, nok-jhok with her mother-in-law, and the fact that she is the mother of nine notorious children have the audience in splits.
However, Kamna says she herself wished for a wedding like this. "I didn't want my wedding to be behind the four walls of a hotel and wanted to participate and enjoy each and every ritual and that is what I am doing. While the wedding is with just family and very close friends, the reception in Indore will have our friends from the industry also," she says.
