Prateik Babbar-Priya Banerjee's wedding half-sister Juhi Babbar Soni

Prateik Babbar recently tied the knot with Priya Banerjee.

Prateik Babbar married his long-time girlfriend, Priya Banerjee, in an intimate ceremony surrounded by family and close friends. Inside photos and videos from the beautiful event have emerged online, capturing the joyous moments. While Priya’s family and the couple’s friends were seen celebrating alongside them, the absence of the Babbar family was noticeable. Prateik’s half-brother, Aarya Babbar, previously disclosed that they were not invited to the wedding, and now, Juhi Babbar Soni has addressed the matter.

Aarya expressed in an interview that they must have failed Prateik as a family, given that he did not consider inviting them to the most special day of his life. Reacting to Aarya’s comment, Juhi shared with TOI, “I’m not defending Aarya, but he is obviously hurt, just like everyone else. When someone is hurt, they have the right to express themselves. This is a sensitive topic, and it has been even before Prateik was born. But no matter what, Prateik is my brother, and nothing in the world can change that, nor the fact that hum ek hi baap (Raj Babbar) ki aulaad hain.”

She added, “Right now, he is surrounded by a few people—whom we don’t wish to name—who have influenced him. But we don’t want to sandwich him in the middle because that won’t help anyone.”
