Pradhyuman Maloo hired Sima Taparia to find him a wife, and it’s time to talk about what the Indian Matchmaking season 1 star has been doing since the show aired. The 30-year-old Mumbai resident Pradhyuman was set up with Rushali Rai, who was recently seen in season 3 of the Netflix show. Although the horse riding date went well, they did not end up together. In 2020, Pradhyuman, who then worked as a jewelry designer for a living, grabbed headlines for his peri peri foxnuts and his company, Nornament. He had infamously rejected 150 proposals before he got married to model and actress, Ashima Chauhaan.
Sima Aunty from Indian Matchmaking was unable to find Pradhyuman a match. However, he managed to do it himself, and returned to season 2 to showcase his grand wedding with Sima as a guest in Udaipur, Rajasthan. Pradhyuman and Ashima met at a party, where they playfully argued about who had better fashion sense. “It was just destiny,” Pradhyuman said about connecting with Ashima. Ashima’s playfulness and cheerfulness won Pradhyuman over. Even Sima called Pradhyuman and Ashima a, “perfect match,” and hoped they would stay together since they were a, “promising couple.”
Indian Matchmaking’s Pradhyuman Maloo Launched Two Restaurants
“In my heart, I’m an entrepreneur, and I love creating things. I have diverged into my other interest of restauranting,” Pradhyuman revealed in Indian Matchmaking season 2. He spoke about launching two restaurants in Mumbai, which Pradhyuman eventually did. Pradhyuman started a restaurant named Ekaa in Mumbai in 2021.
The aofrementioned ingredient-first restaurant is housed inside a 133-year-old building in Fort, which is also where Pradhyuman later opened a second spot. The latter venture is a community space, a cultural place, a cafe, and co-working space. More recently, Pradhyuman stepped into the FMCG universe by launching BeeReal, a brand for 100% natural certified honey.
Indian Matchmaking’s Pradhyuman Maloo Is Still Talking About The Show
To those wondering what happened to Pradhyuman and Ashima after Indian Matchmaking, the couple still seems to be married and together. Pradhyuman lovingly refers to their couple as, “#AmPm” in a post where he documented the, “very beginning” of their relationship. Pradhyuman shared a romantic picture of himself and Ashima taking a walk along Mumbai’s scenic Marine Drive and wrote, “Grateful to have the opportunity of reliving the core of our togetherness and wedding with all of you once again.” He said that working on Indian Matchmaking had been a “pleasure” and added, “It wouldn’t have been possible without all the love and support you guys have been pouring in.”
Indian Matchmaking’s Pradhyuman Maloo Talks About Pushing Through Stress
Pradhyuman doesn’t post much on Instagram, but does share updates once in a while, regarding what he’s up to in life. In August 2022, Pradhyuman posted a shot of himself from Indian Matchmaking season 2, and wrote, “If you see someone without a smile, don’t forget to give them yours.” He added a reminder that no one should sweat the small stuff. “Situations may be hard, times difficult to swallow but if you can, focus on maintaining peace and balance,” Pradhyuman added.
He encouraged his followers to manifest their short-term goals, and put them together into a, “giant titanic of your ambitions.” The post seemed poignant and serious, and had a few Indian Matchmaking fans in the comments worried about whether he’s still happily married to Ashima after the show.
