Adilabad: Amidst high drama, singer Ms Madhupriya (of Adapillanamma …Nenu Adapillanani fame) married Mr B. Srikanth of Kagaznagar in Adilabad on Friday evening.
The singer’s parents were against the marriage and there was day-long drama on Friday before the marriage was finally completed under police protection. The bride’s parents had allegedly tried to take her away from the bridegroom’s house in Kagaznagar town in Adilabad district on Thursday night.
Ms Madhupriya and Mr Srikanth’s parents approached the local police stating that they were both majors and thus could marry of their choice. The singer’s parents, Mr Ramesh and Ms Sujatha, had asked her to get married only after she had settled down in her career as a singer.
Ms Madhupriya, however, told the police that she wanted to marry Mr Srikanth on the fixed muhurat on Friday itself and did not want to postpone it.
Both families were counseled at the police station and the cops finally left the decision to the bride and groom as they were majors. The marriage was performed under police protection. Sources said that Ms Madhupriya and Mr Srikanth had fallen in love two years back.
Ms Madhupriya’s family lives at Nallakunta Colony in Hyderabad though they are natives of Godavarikhani of Karimnagar.
