All about the Yash-Radhika Pandit engagement

Malavika Avinash is known to be an eloquent actor, host and politician. The Yash-Radhika Pandit engagement brought out the writer in her and here is the beautiful description of the engagement ceremony in Goa, which she has posted on social media:
"Please come akka, I know it's all too sudden but I want you to be there, will mean a lot to me...", he screamed on the phone. Puneeth who was seated next to me on the early morning flight exclaimed that Goa is indeed the celebration destination reminiscing some of his wonderful memories of the place.A bag of love-coated pop-corn along with the itinerary welcomed the handful of close family & friends that were at the Taj-Holiday Village at Goa on the 12th Aug 2016.
A beautiful altar soaked in white, by the Fort Aguada beach, foamy waves lashing at the shore, a serene fairy-tale like setting orchestrated with varieties of white flowers, roses, jasmine, Lillies, snow-white furniture by the very creative Arun Sagar. While the ever-so handsome, Yash in a navy blue Sherwani with a splatter of gold embroidery sat waiting with bated breath...I was ushered in by his joyous Amma who insisted that I do the aarti with his sibling Nandini for Radhe. Lo & behold, SHE breezed in with pretty looking friends & her gentle mother by her side...in a gorgeous navy blue art-silk lehenga choli with minimal diamond-studs & a shimmering nath! That's who they both are, simple yet beautiful! As I swung the arti to welcome her Angelic grace, she hugged & whispered into my ears,"Have done this in movies so many times...but today Am Nervous"! As we all gushed she swayed up to the altar to be engaged to the love of her life. The priest uttered the mantras and love filled the air...Women performed the traditional rituals of madilakki tumbodhu, smearing of the arishina on her silky smooth cheeks, filling her forehead with Kumkuma, industry veterans like Ambareesh Sir & Ravichandran alighted to bless the most handsome couple of our business. And Rocking Star slid the rock on to his rock's slender finger & she sealed their love by adorning a specially designed one on his tough finger. Yograj Bhatru, Sadhu Kokila broke into an extempore version of the super-hit Annthamma penned specially to celebrate Yash & Radhika's love, not to mention K. Manju adding his bit of cacophony. "Our Lakshmi has arrived", declared Yash's mother, the occasion also having coincided with Varamahalakshmi festival. My phone rang non-stop...every single news channel called with curiosity mixed excitement..."are you there? Can you tell us what it's like?"...yes, Yash is my kind of hero I said, while he fulfilled his love's desire of wanting a "I do", by the Goan beach where she hails from, he knows he will fill up the hearts of his fans amongst the multitude of Kannadigas with a wedding on a later date back home. Lunch was served!
As I sat by the beach late in the afternoon after a quick snooze, I remembered how I had called to ask a friend if they were just more than hero-heroine while we shot for Bhatru's Drama! Although there was nothing in their dignified behaviour on the sets that suggested it, For me, it was my sixth sense insisting to me that there's palpable love. During Ramachari, I knew but was simply awed at the way both of them carried themselves...so absolutely professional & mature. No SMS-quarrels, no tears, none whatsoever that would affect the working atmosphere. Two actors who are super-talented, superlatively dedicated & hard-working, yet completely unfazed by their super successful careers & stardom.
The sun descended into the sea & the sun-deck lit up in neon...in came charm & enchantment...his arresting chivalry in a tux & her magnificent beauty in a long peach dress embellished with gold. As they cut their snow-white cream coated rich chocolate cake, he spread his warmth thanking the guests...And then it was "Annange love aagidhe..." Time! Karaoke renditions of old romantic songs by Sadhu & Sumaji, the dance floor came alive rocking till wee hours of the morning...missed holding Avinash's(who was shooting) hand as I watched them slow-dance! Yes! My favourite couple are Engaged!!
