Keerthi Pandian is also the daughter of well-known actor-producer Arun Pandian. The green wedding was an intimate event, with only close friends and family members present.

As the couple are environment - conscious, they chose to have a green wedding — which meant that no plastic was used in the wedding.

Actress Ramya Pandian, best known for her role in the National Award-winning film Joker (2016), was among those who attended the wedding of the couple.

Keerthi Pandian quoted a couple of lines in Tamil from Kurunthogai, “Sempula Peyal Neer Pola, Anbudai Nenjam Thaan Kalanthanave,” which is one of the ancient Tamil texts.

It speaks about a maiden who meets a young man and falls in love. Caste and religion don’t matter to both. The maiden is worried that life will separate them at some later point.

The man, who senses what is going on in the woman’s mind, uses these lines to set her mind at rest.

Showing her how rainwater mingles with earth in an inseparable fashion, he draws a simile to their love and says that they too will be inseparable.
