    Saina and Kashyap, who met at Pullela Gopichand’s academy, were in a relationship for quite some time now. But the couple never came out in the open regarding their relation.

     

    Saina had confirmed the news of their wedding in October but the hectic international badminton schedule kept them busy.

     

    Last month, they started extending their wedding invitation to important personalties, including Telangana MLA KT Rama Rao, film star Chiranjeevi, owner of Hyderabad Hunters (PBL franchise) VRK Rao.

     

    Saina and Kashyap’s wedding is the latest among a string of high-profile weddings.

     

    Last year, India cricket captain Virat Kohli had married Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma in Italy.
