All for vaccination, Parth says it’s the first step towards normalcy
AAweek after tying the knot with her beau, real estate agent Dalton Gomez, in an intimate ceremony, American singer-songwriter Ariana Grande, shared adorable glimpses from her wedding day.
The Stuck With You songstress took to Instagram to share a couple of pictures featuring herself and Dalton sharing a kiss under a flower canopy.
The posts showcase moments from the Side To Side crooner’s stunning look. Grande, dressed in a Vera Wang gown, is seen ready with the help of professionals wearing masks.
The two-time Grammy Award winner captioned the photo, “5.15.21,” (the wedding date).
TMZ learnt that there were less than 20 guests, including family members. The duo said their “I dos in an informal way”, according to the sources.
Grande, 27, and Gomez, 25, who began dating in early 2020, had gotten engaged just before Christmas. s the country witnesses the second wave of the pandemic, vaccination seems to be the beacon of hope which everyone needs to hold on to. And that’s something actor Parth Samthaan is advocating as he appeals to people to be patient, and get the jab at the earliest.
“Recently, I was discussing with my friends about how we thought last year that this is just a phase and that everything will be fine with us getting back to our normal lives, travelling and working freely,” says Samthaan, before adding, “But the turn of events has been really unfortunate. We never expected there would be a second wave with such huge numbers.”
With things back to square one, much to his disappointment, the Kasautii Zindagii Kay reboot actor is still keeping his faith alive. “All we can hope for is to get ourselves vaccinated, and just wait for the number [of cases] to drop. Of course, we’ve to follow the rules of the lockdown. It’s for our own betterment. It has helped us and we need to cooperate,” says Samthaan, 30, who battled the virus last year.
But the vaccination drive in India has hit a roadblock due to the shortage of supply, with people struggling to find slots, and some states temporarily suspending the drive for the 18-44 age group. However, Samthaan asserts that it’s important to wait. “Everyone needs to be vaccinated, but the government is doing their part to make sure that the people who need [a strong] immune system, get it first. They are right. I also did that for my mother,” he insists.
Meanwhile, once again, the lockdown imposed to curb the spread of the virus has led to the halting of activities in many industries, including showbiz. The actor, who was last seen in the web series, Mai Hero Boll Raha Hu, is distressed to see people leaving the city because of no work. “It’s like last year again, where people, (including daily wagers), are going back to their villages. They came here leaving everything to earn money for their family,” he notes and hopes “things get back to normalcy as soon as they can.”
