Randeep has revealed that he met Lin at Motley, Nasseruddin Shah’s theatre group, while they were both working on the same play, titled ‘Arms and the Man.’

The actor revealed that she had just come back from New York, met Nasser, and was helping out with the entire play as a member of the crew.

Recalling when their love bloomed, Randeep shared, "We kept meeting over the years, and when lockdown happened, we happened to be held up together, and that’s what led to all this.”

The couple had kept their relationship private and away from public eye for a long time, before 2021, when the actor posted a birthday wish for Lin, sparking rumours. 

On Diwali 2021, the couple made their relationship Instagram official, wishing their fans "love and light."

They kept appearing on each other's social media profile post that, on birthdays, festivals, and their vacations together, where their chemistry was loved by fans.

They announced their marriage on November 25, 2023, sharing the news via a post that read, "We have exciting news. A Date With Destiny, 29-11-2023. Taking a leaf out of Mahabharata, where Arjuna married Manipuri Warrior Princess Chitrangada, we are getting married with the blessings from our families and friends. We are filled with immense joy to share that our marriage will take place on the 29th Of November 2023, Imphal, Manipur followed by a reception in Mumbai. As we set to embark on this journey, we seek your blessings and love for this union of cultures, for which we are forever indebted and grateful. IN LOVE AND LIGHT." 

The couple tied the knot in a traditional Manipuri wedding held in Manipur on November 25, 2023, with their close friends and family in attendance. 

Talking to mid-day, Randeep had revealed that they got married amid a civil war-like situation in Manipur. He recalled how, after their ceremony, they could hear hundreds of AK-47 rifles firing around.

Talking of marriage, Randeep had shared, "I didn’t think to get married at all, but I think now it’s very wise that if you want to get married, get married younger. But life happens. Lin is a wonderful girl.”

 

Since then the couple has impressed many with their chemistry and bond. They often share glimpses from their festival celebrations and vacations together on social media.
