When news of Neil Nitin Mukesh getting engaged broke out, the media linked him with Shahid Kapoor, who also choose to go for an arranged marriage. But, wasn’t Vivek Oberoi the first actor in recent times to go for an arranged marriage? Anyways, Neil finally found the one woman that he wants to spend the rest of his life with. Actually, to be fair and give credit where it’s due, it’s his parents, who found Rukmini Sahay for him and Neil liked her straightaway. Why wouldn’t he? This guy is known to fall crazy in love and then goes on to scream from rooftops about it. Don’t believe us? Just ask Asin and Sonal Chauhan. Back to Neil, he’s the only actor, who truly looks like a prince in his engagement photos. He is truly pretty. The wedding is set to happen early next. In the meantime, here’s Neil in his own words about getting engaged to Rukmini.

Neil Nitin Mukesh Gets Engaged

Neil on getting engaged

In an arranged thing, the courtship can’t be too long. We met during Ganesh Chaturthi and instantly clicked. I never met girls for marriage. She was the first girl I met and I decided I wanted to marry her. We met for a month after that and we didn’t have any dates after Dussehra so we decided to get engaged as soon as possible. The wedding will be early next year after we sit down and finalise the date.

Neil on Rukmini

Rukmini and I share the same values. Her simplicity is the most attractive quality about her. Things have happened so quickly that it hasn’t yet sunk in that I am engaged to be married. I was a little nervous yesterday but it is definitely time. Marriage is a beautiful thing and I can’t wait.
