While Puja Banerjee and Kunal Verma had planned for a traditional Bengali wedding ceremony, the pandemic 2020 had ruined their plans. After postponing their wedding plans twice, once due to professional reasons and the next time because of pandemic, Puja and Kunal had embarked on their journey of Mr and Mrs in February 2020 with a registered marriage and had announced the same on their respective IG feeds in April.

A mix of vibrant colours and intricate embroidery, Puja Banerjee’s engagement lehenga was surely an eye-catcher for everyone. Puja had complemented her look with royal ethnic jewellery by Minawala, a renowned jewellery establishment, which had perfectly blended with her Rajasthani-themed ensemble. Her engagement set was crafted with 24K gold, uncut diamonds, emeralds, rubies and pearls. She had adorned an elegant maang teeka and emerald cocktail ring. Puja had also worn a satlada, which is a layered piece of jewellery, setting a major trend for the bride-to-be!
Announcing that they’re expecting their first child, Puja Banerjee, in an interview with The Times Of India, had said, "Yes, Kunal and I are excited about entering this new, beautiful phase in our lives. I am in a happy space now, and have been enjoying my personal time. In fact, I have not stepped out of my apartment since April."
Speaking about her almost a decade-long relationship with Kunal Verma and how he has changed, in a better way of course, post-marriage, Puja Banerjee had remarked, "We have been in a relationship for almost a decade, but he is a different man after marriage. He is very supportive and loving, and takes even more care of me now than when he was a boyfriend." Revealing her baby shower and plans for a traditional wedding after the little one arrives, Puja had continued, “We had a lot of dreams for our wedding, and had planned everything to the T. However, the pandemic changed everything and even my mother, who lives in Kolkata, could not attend our registered wedding. I am hoping to have a regular ceremony and do my pheras with Kunal after the baby arrives. Hopefully, my mother will also be able to attend it.” (Also Read: Smriti Khanna Shares A Glimpse Of Her 'Baby Singer', Anayka, And We Can't Stop Adoring Her Cuteness)
