Veda Krishnamurthy marriage
On former Indian cricketer WV Raman’s show ‘Wednesdays with WV’ on Sportstar, Krishnamurthy revealed why they chose to get married on her mother’s birthday. She said that the day is very special for her, and because her mother is no more now, she didn’t celebrate her marriage in a grand manner.
“I want to register my wedding on 12 January which is my mom’s birthday. I want that day to be special and always connected to me. In this month you’re not supposed to exchange garlands or conduct auspicious events or we would have had the proper wedding on this date. But going forward, when we celebrate anniversaries, it will be on this day,” Krishnamurthy said.
