Vishal Punjabi revealed that Virat and Anushka hadn’t seen his work before and only trusted the wedding planner’s taste. He said, “It was all kept under wraps. But you kind of figure out that it may be them, but you only know when you get there. We got there, and we were very pleasantly surprised. It’s not like they knew of me, or knew of my work. They were just inherently very nice, sweet people.”He added that the couple welcomed him warmly, giving him full freedom to do his job. “I met them, and they smiled and said, ‘Please do what you do. We don’t know what you do, but we believe that if you’re here, you’ve done it right.’ They trusted their planners, who trusted us. It was a very small wedding, and it felt like everyone was together. They were really nice to me, they were really kind to me.”
