Personalities and Shared Values: The Foundation of Their Bond
When asked about what drew them to each other, Adrija emphasizes the importance of their compatible personalities. "I think it was our personalities that brought us closer. We are both very soft and down-to-earth," she explains. The actress had always envisioned being with someone outside the entertainment industry, and Vignuesh felt like the perfect match. She adds, "We feel like soulmates," highlighting the profound emotional connection they share.
A Common Love for Animals: Strengthening Their Relationship
Another significant factor that strengthened their bond is their shared passion for animals. Vignuesh, who owns around 260 dogs and also takes care of cows at his farmhouse, found a kindred spirit in Adrija. "We both share a deep love for animals, and that common bond connected us very quickly," she says. Reflecting on their journey, Adrija expresses her belief that their union was destined, stating, "I truly believe God planned this for us."
Support from the Production Team: Balancing Work and Personal Life
As a principal cast member of Anupamaa, Adrija is required for several scenes, but she has managed to secure a three-day leave for her engagement ceremony. She credits her production team for their unwavering support and understanding during this important time. "My production house has been extremely supportive and understanding, especially during important moments," she shares. The team has devised a plan to manage the shoot by scheduling scenes in advance and organizing close shots to accommodate her absence.
Adrija has already extended invitations to her DKP team, and those who can manage their schedules will join the celebrations. "I truly appreciate their support and am grateful to be part of such a caring and supportive team," she adds, acknowledging the collaborative effort that allows her to balance her professional commitments with personal milestones.
Future Wedding Plans: A Blend of Cultures and Traditions
Looking ahead, Adrija reveals that the couple is not rushing into marriage. "We don't plan to get married this year," she clarifies. With Vignuesh being South Indian (Tamil) and Adrija hailing from a Bengali background, their cultures are distinctly different. Adrija dreams of a wedding that honors both traditions, which requires careful planning and time. "My dream is to get married following both South Indian and Bengali traditions. That needs proper time and planning, so we are thinking of getting married within the next two years," she shares, outlining their thoughtful approach to their future together.
