According to media reports, SidNaaz had conveyed their decision to their families and preparations for the wedding had started. The families were in touch with a Mumbai hotel for the three-day wedding festivities. Only a few people knew the decision and it was kept a closely guarded secret.

After visiting Sidharth's home, Jasleen said she had spoken to Shehnaaz and it seemed she was lost in some other world. She said: "I spoke to Shehnaaz but she is not in a good state. She was just sitting at one place, staring blankly, saying nothing, lost in her own world. I went up to her, tried talking, but all she did was ask me to sit next to her."

Seeing how disturbed Shehnaaz was, Matharu urged her to get some sleep. "She was so exhausted that she immediately fell off to sleep. I met her brother Shehbaaz, who's there for and with her in this grim hour. He will take good care of Shehnaaz, I am sure," Jasleen said.
