CityLights actor Patralekhaa turned a year older on 20 February and long-time beau Rajkummar Rao took to Instagram to wish the birthday girl.
He wrote, “It’s a special day for the most awesome girl. Happy birthday to the beautiful and kind @patralekhaa. May your special day and everyday that comes hereafter be filled with happiness and joyous moments.”
Rajkummar Rao and Patralekhaa co-starred in 2014’s CityLights. The couple recently opened up about their relationship through a post on a popular Facebook page. Speaking about their early days as a couple Patralekhaa said, “I saw him through his struggles, never giving up. How could we not fall for each other? We wouldn’t officially go on dates, but we would go for long drives, movies, or even sit at home and eat our hearts out. We would even accompany each other for auditions —silently seeping in support. It’s all we needed — that understanding.”
In an interview on Koffee With Karan, Rajkummar Rao revealed that he wasn’t ready for wedding bells just yet. “I still feel like a kid. Mentally I’m not ready to get married. We’re very happy and our parents are happy — they’re not complaining,” he told host Karan Johar when asked about the couple’s plans to get married.
