His remarks have sparked fresh conversations online, especially since neither Kavya nor Anirudh has publicly addressed the speculation. During a recent interview with KPTV, Mahendra spoke about the composer and hinted that wedding plans may already be in place. Describing Anirudh as a gentle and soft-spoken person, Mahendra congratulated him and claimed that the wedding was happening soon.
Mahendra said that based on what he had been told, the marriage was a “sure thing” and added that the two were getting married. Although he did not reveal details such as a wedding date or location, Mahendra also praised Kavya.
