"I did not even know much about him (Vicky). He was just a name I had heard of but had never associated with. But then, when I met him, I was won over," she said. She added, "Calling her relationship 'unexpected and out of the blue', Katrina added, "It was my destiny and it was really meant to be. There were so many coincidences that at one point all of it just felt so unreal."Katrina also revealed that her husband performed on her songs for 45 minutes to cheer her up when she was feeling low on her birthday.
Mouni Roy:
Firsts are always special and actor Mouni Roy also believes the same. Today, she celebrated her first Karwa Chauth and it seems like she enjoyed every bit of it.

For the special occasion, Mouni wore a golden saree. She accentuated her look with jhumkis and red-coloured bangles. Her Karwa Chauth look was completed with subtle makeup and hair tied in a bun.
A day before Karwa Chauth, she gave fans a glimpse of her mehendi. One of her mehendi designs showed Lord Shiva and Parvati hugging each other and another featured a woman breaking her fast seeing the moon with sieve in her hands.
