Priyanka too is an actress who was last seen in Star Plus’ Grihasthi . Talking about the marriage, the actor informs, “We got married in Delhi on 1 December and till 29th of November I was shooting so one can understand the amount of time I got to do the preparations. I was back on 7 December and started shooting the same day.” Recalling his first encounter with Priyanka, Naveen says, “It was love at first sight for me. I had always thought that I wouldn’t marry someone who is from the same industry but Priyanka was different. Being Miss India Catwalk Queen 2002, she is still very Indian at heart and a family oriented girl but strong headed. We got engaged on 24th February this year.” The actor has not yet decided on his honeymoon plans due to the hectic shooting schedule.
