    The beginning of foreverPrakhar Gupta

    Congratulations are for podcaster Prakhar Gupta and his Mexican fiancée Clau as the couple ties the knot in a private ceremony. A love story that began on a Brooklyn rooftop before a Monolink concert has finally taken a turn into its next chapter. While the couple have not shared any details from their big day, here’s what they told Manifest after their engagement, which had taken place in May 2025 and had already set the tone with its quiet and intimate celebration.

    The couple had previously revealed that they first met in 2021, when mutual friends brought them together at a rooftop pregame in Williamsburg, and have always described their love as something that made sense, even in its unpredictability. Between cross-city visits, shared concerts, travels with the same friends who introduced them, and years of supporting each other through personal upheavals, they built a partnership grounded in both softness and strength. 

    In the previous interview, Clau had recalled the exact moment she knew, in the middle of a crowd at a Chicago music festival, looking back to find Prakhar smiling at her with a ridiculous moustache he’d shaved just to tease her, and feeling the kind of certainty people write novels about. For Prakhar, the realisation came quietly but unmistakably in the way Clau remained by his side through the worst phases of his life, choosing him not just in good moments but especially in the ones that weren’t pretty.

    While everything remains under wraps regarding their wedding festivities, Manifest recalls that the duo had always wanted their wedding to be exquisite. In an intimate ceremony, the couple wanted their big day to be a celebration of both their cultures. Clau had previously revealed to Manifest, “We're not your traditional couple in that sense, you know? With me being Mexican and him being Indian. So for me, it's just exciting to think about how we can blend our cultures and bring what's important to each of us to the wedding. I’m familiar with the Indian shaadi scene, so I know you guys have the most beautiful weddings, and I can’t wait for that!” 


    While Clau, on one hand, had been looking forward to the Indian big fat wedding with all the band, baaja and baarat, Prakhar was looking forward to walking down the aisle with her at their Indo-Mexican wedding. The couple had been anticipating their wedding celebrations, and the time has finally come. The couple is now married, and while we wait for the sneak-peaks into their big fat wedding celebration, we wish them a hearty congratulations.

    For Manifest to become one of Cambridge Dictionary's most viewed words of 2024 — 1,30,000 hits and counting — it means some of us must have Googled it at least once. I know, I hit that search button over and over again
    because each time I looked at it, I saw a new meaning.

    Putting together a homegrown title at a time when the demise of print has been long announced may seem surprising...
    ...but it has long been a dream of mine to give India a magazine it deserves. A magazine that is the country.

    And nothing, absolutely nothing, represents India more than our weddings.It is a time when families are brought together. Traditions come alive as they are adapted to each couple's beliefs. And lives are joined in a way that the romantic in me still enjoys.

    The fact that it comes with band, baaja and baraat — what's not to love?And that is the reason our first issue celebrates:
    THE NEW BRIDE.
