Sakshi Sindwani is still giddy with happiness from her recent nuptials when we speak to her on the phone. The New Delhi-based influencer, who champions accepting and loving your body the way it is, has consistently broken conventional stereotypes (fully embracing and flaunting her own beautiful curves on the ’gram), which has made her incredibly popular with the several thousands who follow her. This January, Sakshi married her childhood beau, businessman Raghav Arora, with a host of celebrations between the capital and the Pink City of Jaipur. She recounts details of the prep that went into her nuptials, the stunning outfits she wore, paying homage to her Punjabi heritage, and how love conquers all…
Sakshi, how did you and Raghav meet? When did you know he was ‘the one’?
I met him in school when we were in Class 9. We were best friends for a year or so before we developed feelings for each other, but we kept it quiet; I don’t think we were as attuned to expressing our feelings to others in the way we are today! (Laughs) I think I always knew he was ‘the one’. If soulmates exist, he is the embodiment of one. More than anything, we’re yin & yang. We can’t be apart from one another…
How did he propose? Did you expect it or were you surprised?
Last year, we took a road trip through Scotland and made a stop in Glencoe for the night on our way to the Isle of Skye. We reached at 6pm and it was still sunny, so we set out to explore the place, specifically the [mountain peaks known as] The Three Sisters. I was really tired, in the same clothes I was wearing through the day, smudged eyeliner and not at my prettiest, and he popped the question there, literally in the middle of nowhere, at sunset, on a hike!
