In 2023, Raghav Chadha and Parineeti Chopra’s secret outings surprised many. Belonging to different industries, the couple suddenly came in the limelight after they were spotted walking out of eateries together. Eventually, they tied the knot in September 2023. Later, it was revealed that the couple fell in love after having a breakfast together. Now, after almost two years of their wedding, the couple appeared on The Great Indian Kapil Show where they shared details about their married life and finances.

During their conversation, Kapil Sharma shared, “Most of you must be aware Raghav is also a CA (Chartered Accountant).” Addressing the audience, Kapil asked, “Who would know money management better than him?” However, he then curiously turned towards Raghav and asked, “But, after your marriage to Parineeti… who takes care of the finances?”

Raghav smartly replied, “To manage money, one needs to have money. Among us, Parineeti is the one with money, so she is the one who manages finances.” He added, “Her job pays her well, mine doesn’t. She is both the Finance and Home Minister of our house.”

In the same episode, the couple also shared details about their wedding day when the ritual of hiding the shoes was a huge flop. Parineeti shared, “My friend who stole his shoes, ended up giving it to someone from the groom’s side, so when the time came, they already had it.” However, Raghav claimed, “Actually, soon after our pheras, it started to drizzle, so the bride’s friends brought me the shoes so that I don’t slip.”

Parineeti added, “We had made a rule at our wedding that there won’t be any milni aur joota chupayi. And nobody will give over Rs 11 as shagun. So, we didn’t even get Rs 10 for hiding the shoes.”

Raghav Chadha and Parineeti Chopra had an intimate wedding in Udaipur which was attended by their close friends and family members. Their pre-wedding rituals kicked off with an ardas ceremony in Delhi. This was followed by a sufi night.

Previously, talking at Raj Shamani’s podcast, Parineeti shared her love story with her husband. “We met at an event in London, and usually, I’d just say hi and move on, but this time, I said, ‘Let’s meet for breakfast’. Including our teams, it was around 8-10 of us, and we met at breakfast the next day. I had no idea who he was and what he did. I literally looked him up after the breakfast. I learned about all the work he’s done, and we realised, not even in weeks, in days, that we would get married.”

She added, “I swear, I met Raghav, and within five minutes, I knew I was going to marry this man. I didn’t even know if he was married, had children, how old he was… He just sat at breakfast in front of me, and I’m looking at this man and saying, ‘I think I’m going to marry this man’. It was some God’s voice inside me.”
