New Delhi: The ongoing coronavirus outbreak has forced Bollywood actors Richa Chadha and Ali Fazal to postpone their wedding which was scheduled in April. The couple was all set to tie the nuptial knot on April 15, 2020 in Mumbai but they have now decided to push their wedding to October.

The couple's official spokesperson confirmed the news and here's what the statement reads:

Given the current scenario and the unfortunate turn of events owing to the COVID-19 pandemic globally, Ali Fazal and Richa Chadha have decided to postpone their wedding functions to the later half of 2020 tentatively. They wish for everyone to be healthy and safe and at no cost would want their friends, families and well wishers to be affected.

According to reports, the partial reason for delay is because Ali's family members also reside in Canada and travelling might become a hurdle for them. The couple, who has been to various international promotional tours, are also expecting friends from outside India at their wedding.

Everything else remains the same, including the venue, outfits planned, and teams involved, revealed a friend to Bombay Times.
