A source told Bombay Times that the 31-year-old actor will get engaged to Sanya on January 22, 2018. The couple has known each other for the past eight years but started dating in early 2017.
"The engagement will be a close-knit affair. Their families are tight-lipped about it, as Prateik wants to go a little easy and stay away from the limelight unless it's work-related. While they have decided to get engaged in Lucknow, the date is subject to change as the families are yet to finalise a few things," confirmed a source to the daily.
Talking about Sanya Sagar's background, she is a 27-year-old writer-director-editor. Sanya hails from Lucknow and is a politician's daughter.
