The boxer’s met his match — and he’s loving it. Olympic bronze medallist boxer Vijender Singh, who hails from a small Bhiwani village in Haryana, tied the knot with Delhi girl Archana Singh in a small and private ceremony on Tuesday afternoon. Even though the media wasn’t allowed inside the venue, a bevy of shutterbugs and reporters thronged the gates of the Safdarjung Flying Club for a glimpse of Vijender’s family, friends and a few high-profile guests who came to congratulate the couple.
After a simple wedding ceremony Vijender Singh and his newly wed wife Archana came outside and posed for the media. Vijender looked dapper in an off-white sherwani designed by Manav Gangwani. The designer, who attended the wedding, told us, “The decorations inside are grand and beautiful. I came here specially to congratulate Vijender and his bride. They both looked very nice together.” BCCI vice-president Rajiv Shukla also turned up and congratulated the couple, “I wish the couple the very best and hope they have a happy married life.”
The wedding was attended by other prominent names like Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, who gave a blink-and-you-miss-it appearance. Former Union Minister Captain Satish Sharma with wife Sterre (the couple came in a bright magenta car called ‘Pinki’) and BJP leader Syed Shahnawaz Hussain were also spotted at the wedding.
Vijender’s good friend and boxer Akhil Kumar, who missed the wedding, spoke to us from Patiala and told us that due to flight delay he couldn’t reach Delhi on time. He said, “I will be going to Bhiwani to attend Vijender’s reception and congratulate him for marrying the love of his life.”
