He and Lucy plan to tie the knot soon after she gives birth to their child. He was quoted as saying:
“By next year, when she -— yes, it’s a girl — is old enough to attend our marriage. Lucy and I are engaged and we were already talking about having a baby once we get married. Then she got pregnant and we decided to have the baby. I think no woman would like to attend their own wedding with a big stomach so that’s why the marriage has been planned for next year. We are both serious about our relationship and want to be together but we both have been working on a tight schedule.”
He will be back to India in January for the release of his next film Airlift, while Lucy will fly down after their baby is a few months old.
