Wed Dec 25 01:21:42 UTC 2024: ## Badminton Star PV Sindhu Weds in Intimate Udaipur Ceremony
**Udaipur, Rajasthan, December 24, 2024** – Indian badminton champion PV Sindhu tied the knot with Venkata Datta Sai, Executive Director at Posidex Technologies, in a private ceremony in Udaipur on Sunday, December 22nd. The wedding, attended by close family and friends, including Jodhpur’s Culture and Tourism Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat, saw the couple exchange vows in traditional attire.
Sindhu shared her first public reaction on social media two days later, posting photos from the joyous occasion and a simple heart emoji. The images depict a smiling Sindhu and Sai, celebrating their union.
The wedding was strategically planned for December, a rare break in Sindhu’s demanding badminton schedule. Her father, PV Ramana, confirmed that the decision to marry in December was due to the lack of badminton tournaments during that period. The couple’s families, who had a prior acquaintance, finalized wedding plans just a month ago. A reception is scheduled for December 24th in Hyderabad. Sindhu is expected to resume her training shortly afterwards, as the next badminton season is crucial for her career.
Sindhu, a celebrated athlete with an impressive list of achievements including a World Championship gold medal (2019) and Olympic silver and bronze medals, is considered one of India’s greatest sporting icons.
