Sharing details of the same, Gurmeet revealed that Debina was working with famous South stars and signing films one after the other, while he didn't even have money to put petrol in his bike. He thought that she would fall in love with a South star and would marry him. He said:
"Jab mai 19 ka tha tab mai ne shaadi karli, Debina tab South ki filme kar rahi thi, aur bade bade stars ke sath kaam kr rahi thi. Or mere pass ek Splendor bike hota tha, petrol dalne ke paise nahi hote the. Vo filme sign karti gayi or mujhe laga ki yaar ye toh bade bade stars ke sath shoot kar rahi hai, waha koi pata lega, shaadi ho jaayegi mai aise hi splendor pe ghumta rahe jaunga."
Sharing more insights into his secret wedding, Gurmeet revealed that Debina told him that she wanted to get married, so he used it as a chance to convince her. He shared that they decided they would get married and would not tell anyone about it. Debina thought it was a joke, but Gurmeet had made all the preparations. Reminiscing the old times, Gurmet stated:
"Usne kaha mera mann kar raha hai mai aau or shaadi karle, mai ne kaha, 'Haan, shaadi kar lete hai kisi ko batayege nahi. Tum aao tab tka mai pori taiyaari karta hoon.' Or actually, mai ne pori taiyari kari, toh jab aayi usko laga ki majak ho raha hoga, mai ne kaha boss yahi mauka hai. Goregaon mein ek Shiv mandir tha waha pr humne shaadi ki jo close friends the 3-4 vo log the, mangalsutra or yeh sara cheej kiya."
Gurmeet and Debina also kept their marriage hidden from the family as the former was just nineteen years old, and legally a boy should be 21 years of age to get married in India.
