“Aly spoke to Karan’s parents, who saw Ankita’s picture and within an hour reverted, that they wanted her to be their daughter-in-law. I am aware of Karan’s past but I know that his good qualities outdo the bad ones, so I’m happy. The wedding got finalized just a week back so I’ve asked the makers to either give me a late call time or early exit from the shoot, so I can prepare for the wedding functions.”
