Prateik
&
Sanya
Got
Engaged
On
Basant
Panchami
The
actor
was
quoted
as
saying
to
Mumbai
Mirror,
"Sanya
and
I,
along
with
our
families,
decided
that
something
as
pure
as
love
should
be
solemnised
on
an
auspicious
day
and
what
better
day
than
Basant
Panchami.
She's
the
best
partner
I
could
have
asked
for.
It
didn't
take
me
long
to
figure
out
that
she
was
the
one
for
me.
I
know
it
sounds
clichéd,
but
I
can't
stop
counting
my
blessings
and
thanking
God
for
all
the
good
that
is
happening
in
my
life."
How
The
Love
Story
Began
For
The
Couple
Prateik
and
Sanya
have
known
each
other
since
eight
years.
The
duo
got
together
only
a
year
ago
after
Sanya
returned
from
London
in
January
2017
having
completed
a
yearlong
post-graduate
course
in
filmmaking
from
Goldsmiths
University.
Their
Engagement
Was
A
Hush-Hush
Affair
As
per
a
Mumbai
Mirror
report,
'The
couple
got
engaged
on
Monday
at
Sanya's
farmhouse
in
Lucknow.
His
fiancée,
who
is
known
for
her
culinary
skills,
had
arranged
for
a
seven-course
Lucknowi
meal,
which
included
rajma,
Prateik's
favourite
dish.'
The
Couple
Haven't
Zeroed
Down
Their
Wedding
Date
Prateik
told
the
daily,
"We
want
to
enjoy
this
courtship
period
for
a
year
or
two;
Sanya
will
shuttle
between
Mumbai
and
Lucknow.
We
haven't
thought
about
the
wedding
yet,
but
if
I
had
my
way,
I
would
love
a
beach
wedding
or
a
simple
temple
wedding."
Prateik
Is
Ready
For
Marriage
The
actor
further
added,
"I've
been
mentally
ready
for
marriage
for
a
while
now
as
I
believe
it
gives
a
relationship
substance.
Nothing
will
change,
life
will
only
get
even
more
beautiful."
He
Missed
His
Mother,
Late
Actress
Smita
Patil
"I
constantly
feel
her
presence,
she
is
my
guardian
angel
and
guiding
force,"
adding
that
she
would
have
been
the
happiest
person
if
she
were
around.
