Most
of
us
may
not
remember
what
young
playback
singer
Vidhu
Prathap
had
once
said
during
an
interview
about
the
girl
he
would
like
to
marry.
"I
want
someone
who
would
gel
well
with
my
family
and
if
not
a
singer,
she
should
at
least
be
someone
who
appreciates
music." Now
his
dream
comes
true!
Vidhu
Prathap,
widely
acknowledged
as
the
voice
of
actor

for
rendering
most
of
his
songs,
will
marry

Prasad,
who
is
a
classical
dancer,
3D

and
TV

The

ceremony
will
take
place
