• He dated his girlfriend Divya Punetha for almost eight years before tieing the knot with her on 19 June 2021 amid the COVID-19 restrictions. In an interview, he talked about his marriage. He said,

I am one person who has always been very excited about the wedding. Usually, we say girls dream of having a grand wedding or getting married but in my case, everything is the opposite. It was always my dream to get married to Divya and I am excited that it is finally coming true. She has been with me through thick and thin, when I was nothing. Also our parents were not very convinced about the marriage as she is Brahmin and I am a Rajput. So they had their reservations. There were a lot of conflicts. I was not settled and Divya’s family, like every parent, wanted someone with a secure job. They would tell her that you are a doctor, he is an actor and what are you. But we kept faith and love won in our case. She supported me in my tough times. I am super excited and I have been dancing every night with my Pandya Store team, even though they are equally happy for me.”

He further said,

There were two memorable moments. The first was the moment when I saw Divya. I was waiting for that moment for a long time, so it was special for me. And another was when we were taking wedding rounds in front of everyone and Pandit Ji. And we were repeating the mantras and vowed with Pandit Ji. Those were the most special and memorable moments.”
