Popular Tamil actor Mahat Raghavendra got engaged to his longtime girlfriend, Prachi Mishra today in a very intimate ceremony. Interestingly, the couple made headlines when she broke up with him during his Bigg Boss stint in 2018. His growing fondness for Yashika and later confessing his love for her were some of the reasons that caused a rift in their relationship. "I am not with Mahat so please leave my social media for my work" she had captioned one of her Instagram posts. Since she deleted the post later, fans started speculating if all is well in their paradise. And guess it was. Bigg Boss Tamil 2: Mahat Raghavendra’s Girlfriend Prachi Mishra Breaks Up With Him After He Confesses His Love to Yaashika Aanand.

Prachi and Mahat met in Dubai in 2016 and are dating each other since then. She even revealed their plans of tying the knot this year and clearly, she wasn't bluffing. The actor was earlier in a relationship with Taapsee Pannu for two years but they decided to part ways when things weren't working for them. One of the most controversial contestants on Bigg Boss 12, he was criticised for his hostile behaviour.

Speaking about his infatuation for Yashika, Mahat in his conversation with TOI had said, "See, I love Prachi (Mishra) and she is my life. I mean every word of it. When you are inside the house for 70 days, and move closely with someone, you will get infatuated. Yashika expressed it to me first and I told her that I really liked her, too. Yes, I was infatuated, but I never said that I will be in a relationship with her. Many people might feel the same way if they are put in a situation like that. But how many people will say this openly? I wanted to be true to myself, but people say that I am the bad guy because I was honest. I don’t know what to do (smiles)."

But that's a thing of the past. Today he's happily engaged to Prachi and we hope to hear wedding bells very soon. Here's congratulating this couple on their special day.
