Actor Tanuj Virwani recently announced his engagement with Tanya Jacob. The Inside Edge actor is all set to marry his ladylove on the auspicious occassion of Christmas. Ahead of the same, he recently opened up about his wedding, why he is choosing to have an intimate one, and all things in between.
In an interview with The Free Press Journal, Tanuj opened up on entering a new phase in his life. “I’m excited. I feel positive and sure-footed. I know I have made the right choice, also at the right time and with the right person. A lot of people have been asking me if I’m feeling butterflies in my stomach, but not yet. It could change maybe on the wedding day but right now I’m as cool as a cucumber. In fact, my entire family has been enthusiastic and charged up. They want to be involved in every facet of planning the wedding and it’s so nice that everyone’s coming together for the celebration.”
When asked about the theme of their wedding, and the kind of preps they have been taking for the same, the actor added, “When we were planning, December 25 came up as one of the most auspicious dates. I thought it would be nice to have a Christmas theme and everything white, red and green. It was no-brainer that we wanted to have it at our farmhouse in Lonavala as the place is very close to my heart and I’ve been coming here since I was a kid.”
He added, “We’ve kept the guest list full of people who are close and who have made a difference to our lives. But it’s going to be a lot of fun. The day itself is so special that we don’t have to really have to go out our way to do anything extra. It is such a special and sacred moment.”
Tanuj and Tanya are all set to have an intimate wedding at the former’s farmhouse in Lonavala. Speaking about the same, the Bajao actor shared, “Luckily, both of us have been in sync with the kind of wedding that we want. With all due respect to people who like having fancy and lavish weddings, we wanted something smaller and more intimate. It is reflective of who we are. I’m probably a lot more extroverted than Tanya but as time has passed and as I became a little bit wiser, I realised that you have to know your true well wishers. I didn’t want to have a circus or a mela. It’s very easy to call 500 people but it is also a private time for me and as much as I love sharing it with the media, my family and friends, I wanted it to be intimate.”
On a closing note, the actor spilled beans about falling in love with Tanya. “We’ve known each other for a long time. I met her a decade back when she was in Mumbai. Our families also know each other very well. Even when Tanya shifted back to Singapore, we kept in touch. As time went by, we realised that our goals, aspirations and what we expect from life were in alignment. We didn’t want to spend the next few years dating and figuring things out. We gave it a real thought and decided to take things forward. That’s how everything was initiated and the rest is history.”
