The couple, who tied the knot on November 15, 2021, in an intimate ceremony in Chandigarh, first worked together in the 2014 film Citylights, which marked Patralekhaa’s Bollywood debut.

On the work front, Rajkummar recently completed the shooting for his upcoming film, ‘Nikam’. Sharing a handwritten note on Instagram, the actor expressed deep gratitude and admiration for his portrayal of public prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam, calling it “a privilege” to watch him build the character with such calm, honesty and grace.

Nikam is a biopic on India’s celebrated public prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam. More details regarding the film have not been disclosed yet.

Meanwhile, RajKummar is also busy working as a producer. A few months ago, he and his wife Patralekhaa launched their own production house, KAMPA Film. The name KAMPA holds personal significance, as it combines the initials of their mothers’ names, paying tribute to them. (ANI)
