"For the first time, I thought we should do it quickly. So, she must have done something. When things are good, I don’t ask questions. I just went with the flow.

She knew where I’m getting at when I called her. And then she met me in person, that’s it. For me, it was serious. It was commitment. When I met her, that’s the time I felt I am ready to do this. It was that simple, for real.

So, we got talking during the lockdown and I said okay, this is right and that’s about it. So, when good things happen, I don’t question too much, I just go. Everyone’s got a timeline, it’s okay. That’s fine," Rana revealed during the chat show.

Wedding at Ramanaidu Studios

The Daggubati family decided to get Rana married at Ramanaidu Studios as no films were being shot due to pandemic. Only 30 people were invited to the wedding.  "I shot my wedding in VR and sent it to my family who couldn’t come and all of that and I sent them VR headsets so they could watch it. This is for real. So, we shot it in Virtual Reality and sent a bunch of VR boxes and sweets and stuff for family and some friends. So, they got to see it live. So in VR, it feels like you are actually at the wedding, the Baahubali actor revealed about relatives and friends who enjoyed his wedding virtually.
