‘Food got stuck in my throat’: Rakul Preet on Jackky Bhagnani meeting her father

Actress Rakul Preet Singh recently shared a relatable story about her husband, Jackky Bhagnani, meeting her Dad for the first time. The actress revealed that she was a bunch of nerves on the day, and her nervousness escalated, especially after her father bluffly questioned Jackky about his plans with Rakul.

Speaking to DNA, the actor said, “I think I was the most worried. I prepped my dad and told him ‘he is coming and meeting you for the first time. Do not make it very awkward. He is not army.’ But then fathers being fathers, he asked the question straight up. But Jackky was prepared.”

“He had come to Delhi for my mom’s birthday. I had prepped my dad saying don’t make it awkward because we had just started dating. I told him ‘you just see the boy’. I told Jackky not to worry because he won’t ask anything. Then we were having lunch and my dad asked him what his plan was. He started with plans for his next release, Mission Raniganj. My dad just said, ‘work and all is good but what is your plan with my daughter’. My food got stuck in my throat,” the actor added.

“The funniest thing was that Jackky just took it very well and said, ‘whenever she is ready, I am ready’. And that was it, my father became a fan,” she said.

On the professional front, Rakul Preet Singh has Kamal Haasan’s Indian 2 in the pipeline.
