Bengaluru: Kannada actor Radhika Pandit marked her 10th engagement anniversary with actor Yash with a heartfelt note, celebrating the journey they have shared since getting engaged in Goa in 2016.

Radhika and Yash, one of the most popular couples in Kannada cinema, got engaged on August 12, 2016, in a private ceremony attended by close friends and family. They went on to marry in December that year.

The anniversary post comes as the couple continues to attract attention from fans, who have followed their relationship from their early days in television and Kannada films to their life as parents and prominent figures in the Indian film industry.

Radhika Pandit looks back on a decade of togetherness

Radhika’s anniversary note reflected on the years she and Yash have spent together, marking a decade since their engagement.

The actress has often shared glimpses of her family life on social media, including photographs and messages featuring Yash and their two children.

Her latest post once again gave fans a glimpse into the personal side of their relationship, away from Yash’s busy film career.

The couple’s relationship has remained popular partly because their romance began long before Yash became a pan-India star with the KGF franchise.

Yash and Radhika got engaged in Goa

Yash and Radhika Pandit got engaged in Goa on August 12, 2016, at a private event attended by family members and close friends.

Their relationship had developed over several years after they first met while working on the television serial Nandagokula in 2007.

They later worked together in Kannada films, including Mr. and Mrs. Ramachari, which further strengthened their association in the public eye.

Although they kept their relationship private for a long time, their growing popularity eventually made them one of the most followed celebrity couples in Karnataka.

The couple married four months later

Following their engagement, Yash and Radhika tied the knot on December 9, 2016, in Bengaluru.

The wedding was attended by several celebrities and prominent personalities from Karnataka.

The couple also held receptions for friends, family and fans, turning their wedding into a major celebration for their supporters.

Their marriage marked another chapter in a relationship that had begun nearly a decade earlier.

From co-stars to life partners

Yash and Radhika’s story has been closely followed because the two knew each other before either had reached their current level of fame.

Their first meeting was on the sets of Nandagokula. They subsequently worked together in films such as Mr. and Mrs. Ramachari, Santhu Straight Forward and Drama.

Their professional association eventually developed into a relationship, although the pair largely kept details about their romance away from the spotlight.

That privacy has remained an important part of their public image even as both became increasingly popular.

Radhika has supported Yash through his career

Yash’s career underwent a major transformation following the success of the KGF films.

The actor became a pan-India star after playing Rocky in KGF: Chapter 1 and KGF: Chapter 2. His subsequent projects, including Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups, have continued to generate considerable interest.

Radhika has previously spoken warmly about her relationship with Yash and his personality.

In an earlier interview- conversation, Yash described himself as a difficult person to be with and credited Radhika for supporting him through challenging phases of his career.

The couple’s relationship has therefore remained an occasional topic of interest alongside Yash’s film announcements.

Their family has grown over the years

Yash and Radhika are parents to two children.

Their daughter Ayra was born in December 2018, while their son Yatharv was born in October 2019.

Radhika largely stepped away from acting after her marriage, with her last feature-film appearance coming in Aadi Lakshmi Purana in 2019.

Since then, she has frequently shared family moments with her followers while continuing to remain connected to the Kannada entertainment industry.

Radhika remains popular with Kannada film fans

Before her marriage, Radhika Pandit was one of the leading actresses in Kannada cinema.

She began her screen career with television before making her feature-film debut with Moggina Manasu in 2008. The performance earned her both the Karnataka State Film Award for Best Actress and the Filmfare Award for Best Actress – Kannada.

She subsequently appeared in successful films including Love Guru, Krishnan Love Story and Mr. and Mrs. Ramachari.

Her decision to step away from acting after marriage has not diminished her popularity, with fans continuing to follow her social media updates.

A decade after their engagement

The 10th engagement anniversary is another milestone for the couple, who have now spent nearly a decade as husband and wife.

Their journey has also coincided with Yash’s transformation from a successful Kannada actor into one of India’s best-known South Indian stars.

For fans, Radhika’s anniversary message offered a more personal look at the relationship behind the public figures.

While Yash’s professional commitments continue to keep him in the spotlight, Radhika has often provided glimpses of their family life through social media.

Yash and Radhika continue to be a fan favourite

Celebrity relationships often attract attention because of their visibility, but Yash and Radhika’s appeal has also been shaped by the fact that their relationship predates their biggest career milestones.

They knew each other when they were working in television and regional cinema, built a relationship away from the public eye and eventually married after years of knowing one another.

Their decade-long journey since their engagement has consequently become an important part of their shared story.
