The exact dates are kept a secret by the family but it’s expected to be in the first week of December. The family has already begun preparations.

Kartik Aaryan, in this interview, said, “I have to say, having a sister is a blessing and it’s sonay pe suhaga if she becomes your best friend. Sisters are the best secret keepers. Even today, I have that comfort with Kittu where I share everything with her.”He also stated, “Whenever I’m going through something personal or having a bad day, she is my go-to person because just by talking to her or spending some time with her, things start looking better. She is younger but wiser than me. she is my cheerleader, but she is also honest about her thoughts and feedback.”Dr Kritika Tiwari revealed, “We are poles apart as individuals. I am more outdoorsy, loud and talkative, and he’s mostly quiet, composed and a workaholic. As much as I appreciate how hardworking he is, I do wish he could find ways to let go and chill a little bit more.”She added, “When he went to college and I was in Bhopal doing my MBBS, I would write him letters every year. As much as I missed celebrating Raksha Bandhan together, writing Rakhi letters to him became one of my favourite things to do.”Also Read: Kartik Aaryan makes a strategic move bids adieu to Collective Artists Network, joins Dharma Cornerstone Agency.
