Bhubaneswar: Putting all speculation to rest, actor-turned-politician Anubhav Mohanty got engaged to close friend and journalist Jagrati Shukla in an intimate ceremony on Friday.
Jagrati confirmed about their engagement with social media posts on Saturday.
According to grapevine, the couple is set to tie the nuptial knot on March 11 or April 1.
Jagrati had recently revealed about their wedding plan in a podcast after launch of her book ‘Blockbusters to Ballot Box’, a biography tracing the journey for her now fiancé Anubhav. The former Kendrapada MP had also advised his ex-wife Varsha Priyadarshini, without naming her, to move on in life and get married again during the book release event last month.
Anubhav and Jagrati have been in news since the former moved court for divorce from Varsha, also an actor. He often shared posts in admiration for her. Jagrati also found herself in the midst of the messy legal battle after being trolled by fans for allegedly being the third wheel in the erstwhile Ollywood’s power couple’s life.
The Orissa High Court granted divorce of the celebrity couple on December 21, 2023.
