Television star Adrija Roy, who has won hearts as Raahi (Aadhya) in the top-rated show Anupamaa, is officially starting a new chapter. The actor is set to exchange rings with Mumbai-based partner Vignuesh Iyer this Sunday, January 25, 2026.
The engagement will be an intimate, private affair held at Vignuesh’s farmhouse, attended by close friends and family just a day before Republic Day.
A Bond Built on Compassion
While Vignuesh stays away from the glitz of the entertainment industry, the couple found a deep connection through their shared values and a unique common passion: animal welfare.
- The Meeting: The duo first met in May 2025 at a mutual friend’s party and “clicked right away.”
- The “Animal Sanctuary” Connection: Vignuesh is a dedicated animal lover who houses approximately 260 dogs and several cows at his farmhouse. Adrija shared that his soft-hearted nature and commitment to animals made her realize he was “the one.”
- Soulmate Energy: Adrija described their bond as “soulmates,” noting that they are both down-to-earth individuals who value simplicity over drama.
Cultural Fusion: The Wedding Roadmap
The couple is in no rush to walk down the aisle. Given their diverse backgrounds—Adrija is Bengali and Vignuesh is Tamilian—they want to ensure their wedding honors both cultures perfectly.
- Timeline: The wedding is expected to take place within the next two years (likely 2027 or 2028).
- Vision: Adrija dreams of a ceremony that seamlessly blends South Indian and Bengali traditions, which she believes requires meticulous “time and planning.”
Professional Support
To celebrate her big day, Adrija has taken a three-day leave from the sets of Anupamaa. She expressed her gratitude to producer Rajan Shahi and the production team for being incredibly accommodating, adjusting the shoot schedule with close-up shots and advance planning to ensure her absence doesn’t hinder the show’s high-stakes drama.
