Kannada television actress Rashmi Prabhakar tied the knot with her long-time boyfriend Nikhil Bhargav on Monday, April 25, in Bengaluru. The wedding, which was held in line with the COVID-19 norms, saw family members and close friends, including many notable names from the Kannada film and television industry, grace the occasion and wish the newly-wed couple. Popular Kannada actors Chandan Kumar and Kavitha Gowda too attended the ceremony and wished the newly-wed couple. Congratulatory messages and wishes are pouring in for Rashmi and Nikhil from fans, with a picture from their wedding going viral on social media. Sharing a photo on Instagram, Chandan Kumar wished the couple and wrote, "Congratulations @rashmiprabhakar_official and Nikhil..❤️❤️❤️❤️ very very very happy for you."
Rashmi and Nikhil got engaged in November, with the actress sharing adorable pictures from their pre-wedding photoshoot, while also narrating their fairy-tale love story to fans for the first time ever. The star, who is best known for playing the character Raaga on the popular Kannada TV show Manasella Neene, revealed her wedding plans back in February this year. Speaking to Bangalore Times sometime back about her marriage, Rashmi said, "Nikhil works in an advertising agency. We first met through a common friend three years ago at an event where I was there to give my dance performance. We first became friends and started liking each other's qualities. Nikhil was the first to propose to me. Since we both worked together in distributing food packets to the needy during the lockdown, both families knew about us. Just a month back we decided to inform our parents about our relationship, even though they were equally thrilled to get to know that we are taking our relationship to the next level. Nikhil understands the life of an artist and he doesn’t have any objection to continuing in this profession even after marriage."
Rashmi Prabhakar became a household name and garnered popularity among Kannada audiences after her appearance in an important role in the Kannada serial Lakshmi Baramma. She later played a leading role in the show Manasella Neene before she surprised everyone last year by announcing that she was quitting the show.
