Khan Sir Reveals Why His Wife Wore Veil At Wedding Reception: "It Was My..."
Addressing the issue on a recent podcast with ANI, Khan Sir said it was his wife's decision to keep the veil as she wanted to stand out from the rest of the gathering.
"It was my wife's decision to wear the veil at the reception. She said it was her childhood dream and that every girl dreams of becoming a bride with a veil. As per her, the bride has a different identity wearing the veil in a crowd of people," said Khan Sir.
"She said since everyone is already dressed at the reception, the veil would help her stand out. I told her people would blame me, to which she replied, 'No, it's my childhood dream'. She was stubborn that she wanted to be this way, and at the end, I said okay," he added.
Quizzed if the online backlash affected him, Khan Sir replied: "No, we come from a village. And we cannot leave the village behind."

'Got married quietly because'
As for why he got married in a hush-hush way, Khan Sir revealed it was due to the military conflict between India and Pakistan.
"I did not tell you guys one thing: when the war was on, I got married," he could be heard telling a class of students in one of the videos circulating on social media.
"Initially I wanted to put off the wedding and go and help the soldiers fighting the enemy at the borders. But things had been planned by my parents and they were distraught."
"Finally, I relented. I cursed the Pakistanis for their sudden attack and agreed to tie the knot, but on the condition that nobody would be invited."
Khan Sir runs the Khan GS Research Centre in Patna and also has a YouTube channel by the same name. As of now, he has 24.7 million subscribers and features around 400 videos.

Ameesha Patel REACTS To Saiyaara Being Compared To Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai: ‘25 Years Lage, But…'
Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai actress Ameesha Patel welcomed Saiyaara stars Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda to the movies, wishing them to create 'Gadar' at the box office. Saiyaara, starring debutants Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, is creating havoc at the box office! The film's success is drawing comparisons to the 2000 blockbuster Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai, which famously launched the careers of debutants Hrithik Roshan and Ameesha Patel. Now, Ameesha Patel has finally reacted to the parallels being drawn between Saiyaara and Kaho Naa…Pyaar Hai. She said that while she hasn't watched Ahaan and Aneet's film, she hopes they create 'Gadar' at the box office. She also expressed gratitude that Kaho Naa…Pyaar Hai remains a benchmark in Bollywood, and that it took 25 years for a debutant-led love story to be compared to their cult film. Ameesha Patel took to X (formerly Twitter) to welcome Saiyaara stars Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda to the movies. She wrote, 'Wishing the Saiyaara couple ahaan n Aneet all the best !! May u continue to create GADAR at the box office in the future films as well !! KAHAA NAA PYAAR HAIN shine bright always n welcome to the movies." Her post has gone viral! Wishing the Saiyaara couple ahaan n Aneet all the best !! May u continue to create GADAR at the box office in the future films as well !! KAHAA NAA PYAAR HAIN👍🏻👍🏻???? shine bright always n welcome to the movies 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻— ameesha patel (@ameesha_patel) July 21, 2025 Meanwhile, Ameesha was also spotted by the paparazzi yesterday, where she was asked about Saiyaara's comparisons to Kaho Naa…Pyaar Hai. She replied, 'First of all, I'd like to wish both these newcomers who have debuted all the very best of luck. And I hope they go on to create 'Gadar' at the box office. But honestly, I haven't seen the film, nor have any of my friends. No one I know has watched it. So commenting on the film itself would be wrong. But yes, I have also been seeing this comparison. Not just now, but even before the film's release. Social media and PR teams were already comparing it to Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai." 'All I can say is, when Hrithik and I made our debut, we became the 'OG international crushes' overnight, and we had become sensations, and there was no comparison back then. And now, after 25 years, if a debut love story is finally being compared to Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai, it shows the kind of benchmark our film has become. I am very grateful Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai is the benchmark that's been compared to. I wish the newcomers the very best again, and I hope this new couple continues to create 'Gadar' going forward. 25 saal lage, lekin kisi ki to comparison humari cult film se ho rahi hai. (It's taken 25 years, but at least someone's debut is finally being compared to our cult film)," she said. Check out the video below! View this post on Instagram A post shared by (@tellychakkar) Saiyaara released in theatres on 18th July, 2025.

Therefore, following the release of their music video, Ashish and Elli went live on Instagram to apologise to their fans.

My original thought was, 'Let's prank,' because my followers are used to my jokes. But we didn't expect it to get this big. It took us two days to realise how far it had gone.
