New Delhi, December 05, 2025: The video, which quickly went viral across social media platforms, showed the 52-year-old actress, known for her debut in Pardes, exchanging varmaala (garlands) with the 62-year-old popular character artist, while a priest recited the shaadi ke mantra (marriage vows). Mahima was seen dressed as a beautiful bride in a red ensemble, while Sanjay Mishra wore a groom’s outfit, complete with a traditional jacket.
The images and video led to immediate speculation among fans and media outlets about a surprise, secret wedding between the two actors. Many wondered if Mahima Chaudhry, who was previously married to Bobby Mukherji, had decided to tie the knot again, this time with her senior co-star, Sanjay Mishra.
However, sources close to the actors and further investigation have clarified the situation. The elaborate ‘wedding’ was not a real-life event but a creative promotional stunt for their upcoming film, ‘Durlabh Prasad Ki Doosri Shaadi‘ (Durlabh Prasad’s Second Marriage).
The viral clip appears to be from a promotional event or the set of their forthcoming movie, which is being directed by Siddhant Raj. The film’s makers and the actors orchestrated this public appearance to generate significant buzz for the romantic-comedy drama, which centers around a middle-aged man (Sanjay Mishra) embarking on a second marriage.
This unique and highly effective marketing strategy has certainly put the film in the spotlight, with the video of the ‘newlyweds’ posing for the paparazzi and asking them to “have sweets” before leaving further fueling the initial confusion.
While the marriage is fictional, the successful promotional move has ensured that the film is now a hot topic of discussion, with fans eagerly anticipating the on-screen chemistry of the unconventional pairing. Both actors are set to return to the big screen with this project.
