The digital world was caught by surprise on March 29, 2026, when fitness influencer and Bigg Boss 18 alum Rajat Dalal announced his marriage. The suddenness of the event, coupled with the absence of high-profile friends like Elvish Yadav and Lakshay Kaushik, sparked intense speculation among fans.
However, fellow The 50 contestant Lakshay Kaushik has now cleared the air, explaining the reasoning behind the private ceremony and promising a massive celebration on the horizon.
A “Family-Only” Affair
Despite rumors of a rift, Lakshay Kaushik clarified that the wedding was intentionally kept small. Speaking to the media, Lakshay noted that the ceremony consisted strictly of immediate family members from both the bride’s and groom’s sides.
“It was a close family affair—just the bride’s side and his side of the family. There is no animosity; we still video call each other regularly.” — Lakshay Kaushik
While Rajat has shared glimpses of the dreamy lakeside wedding on Instagram with the caption “Jeevan ke nayi pehlu ki shuruwaat” (The beginning of a new chapter of life), he has notably kept his wife’s identity and name private.
Grand Reception in the Works
For those feeling left out of the festivities, Lakshay shared some exciting news during an interview with Telly Chakkar. He confirmed that Rajat plans to host a “proper reception” where all his friends, industry colleagues, and fellow contestants will be invited.
What we know so far:
- The Date: While a specific date hasn’t been set, the announcement is expected soon.
- The Guest List: Expected to include the entire cast of The 50, including Mr. Faisu, Hamid Barkzi, and Vanshaj Singh.
- Relationship Status: Rajat recently clarified that this was not an “arranged” marriage; he had been dating his partner since before his stint on Bigg Boss.
Industry Congratulations
The private nature of the ceremony didn’t stop the influencer community from showing love. The comment section of Rajat’s wedding video was flooded with messages:
- Vanshaj Singh: “Stay blessed bhai.”
- Ridhi Dogra: “What a lovely news. Buhut buhut Mubaarak. Wish you both a blessed life ahead.”
- Admirers: Fans have been praising the “O Mahi” themed wedding video, calling it one of the most aesthetic influencer weddings of 2026.
As Rajat settles into his new life, the spotlight remains on the upcoming reception, which is expected to be one of the biggest social media events of the year.
