When the ongoing drug scandal investigation emerged and several names from the Kannada film and television industry came up, one of the unfortunate casualties was actor Pavan Shourya's engagement. The actor was to have been engaged to
Likitha, but her family backtracked based on the rumours that were floating around about members of the showbiz industry, unwilling to marry their daughter to an actor.
But it now appears that Pavan and his family have been able to convince Likitha's folks that not everyone's a bad apple in the industry, and has gotten engaged to her in a simple ceremony.
Pavan says, “When our engagement was called off, it was like a bolt out of the blue. My parents were shocked by the turn of evenrts, as Liktha's family made the call based solely on what they had been seeing and hearing about the industry. Thoughours was an arranged match, we had exchanged numbers and had been talking to each otther for a while and there was a special bond between us. Likitha, who is a doctor, was quite understanding, but her parents, who were looking out for her well-being, were reluctant to let the match go ahead. But since I was not at fault, I decided to convince them and they finally agreed.”
Pavan will get married on March 24 next year at a convention hall in Bengaluru next year. “As of now, we have not made plans about how to conduct the wedding. It will depend on the pandemic situation at the time,” he adds.
