Taapsee Pannu clarifies her wedding was 'private,' not 'secret' affair
What's the story
The news of Taapsee Pannu's secret wedding to Danish badminton player Mathias Boe in March took everyone by surprise.
The couple, who had been dating for 11 years, opted to keep the event away from public scrutiny.
Despite fans' anticipation for wedding photos, Pannu's social media accounts remain devoid of any such images.
Now, in a recent interview, she clarified that it wasn't a "secret" wedding but a "private and personal" event.
Statement
'Didn't think about issuing a press release...'
When asked when she will share her wedding look with fans, Pannu told IANS, "I don't think I have given thoughts about my bridal look..."
"It wasn't a secret wedding, it was a private and personal event. So, I did not think about issuing a press release."
"If at all I get an idea, I will be the first one to share it with you all," she added.
Private life
'I've signed up for public life, not my partner...'
Earlier, in a separate interview, when questioned about any plans to share wedding pictures on social media, the actor responded, "I just am not very sure if I want to let my personal life and the people involved in it, go through the kind of scrutiny that happens when a public figure gets married."
"It's me who has signed up for this, not my partner...I am not sure about how I feel...that's why I've kept it to myself."
