The couple looked stunning in elegant traditional attire, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of the occasion.

Venkata Datta Sai, an executive director at a Hyderabad-based tech company, got engaged to Sindhu in a private ceremony on December 14. The newlyweds are set to host a grand reception in Hyderabad on December 24, where they will celebrate their union with a larger gathering of family and friends.

Even amid the wedding celebrations, PV Sindhu remains committed to her sporting career. The star athlete is gearing up for the Malaysia Open Super 1000 tournament, scheduled to begin on January 7, which marks the start of the new Olympic cycle leading up to the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.

Sindhu’s last major victory was at the Syed Modi International in Lucknow, where she displayed exceptional form. Fans eagerly anticipate her return to the court, as she skillfully balances her new personal life with her professional aspirations.

The pre-wedding festivities for Sindhu began with much fanfare in Hyderabad on December 20, featuring traditional Sangeet, Haldi, Pellikuthuru, and Mehendi ceremonies.
