Sharing the news along with breathtaking pictures from the ceremony, Avika Gor wrote, 'He asked.. I smiled, I cried (in that order 🙈)... and screamed the easiest YES of my life! I'm full filmy — background score, slow-mo dreams, mascara running and all. He's logic, calm, and 'let's carry a first-aid kit just in case.' I manifest drama. He manages it. And somehow, we just… Fit. So when he asked, the heroine in me took over — arms in the air, tears in my eyes, and zero network in my brain. Because real love? It may not always be perfect. But, It. Is. Magical. 💫 #Engaged #Rokafied.' They are adorable! But who is Avika's Prince Charming Milind Chandwani?
