Kunal Kohli on Varun-Natasha's wedding: We were happy to be together in the privacy of everything

Fanaa director Kunal Kohli, who was one of the few guests at Varun Dhawan and Natasha Dalal's wedding, opened up about how special the event was

Kunal Kohli, best known for helming films like Fanaa and Hum Tum, was one of the very few guests invited to Varun Dhawan and Natasha Dalal's wedding. Many may not be aware that Kunal and Varun are cousins - their mothers are sisters - and that Varun calls Kunal 'Kunnu bhaiyya', a fact that the filmmaker revealed in the interview.

In a recent interview with Hindustan Times, Kunal Kohli opened up about the wedding and everything that made it special. He shared, "Varun’s my cousin. Some people know it, some don’t. His mother and my mother are real sisters. I call her ‘Laali maasi’, he calls me ‘Kunnu bhaiyya’. We are both family. The whole idea was to just keep it to the close family and very, very close friends."

He added, "There were four-five friends of his, whom everyone knows from school. We were sharing stories. It was very nice, a close-knit environment of friends like family and family-like friends. That was what was wonderful about it."

Praising Varun and Natasha's friends, Kohli said, "We came away becoming closer, discovering his friends and them discovering us. I always say, ‘You can’t choose your family but you can choose your friends,’ and I am glad he has chosen his friends well. Likewise for Natasha. Both of them have a wonderful set of friends. It was just like one big family and we were all happy to be together in the privacy of everything."

Kunal Kohli also spoke about how the media, who were stationed by The Mansion House in Alibaug where the wedding took place, respected the family's privacy. He said, "It was very nice of the media to even give us that privacy. I would step out in the morning with my daughter for a walk or something and the media would be there. We used to just chat happily and move on. Everyone respected each other’s privacy."
