Recently, fans were sweetly surprised when it was reported that Richa and Ali were planning to get married around mid-April this year.

"Ali is a sweetheart," Richa had once said.
Talking about her equation with the fellow actor, Richa had earlier said, "It is rare to find like-minded people who share certain core values and have similar interests...Ali is also progressive and liberal. To find someone like that in your industry is rare. Also, we never expected to end up together. It happened organically."
