Filmmaker Imtiaz Ali announced his daughter Ida Ali's engagement to longtime partner Krish Agrawal following an intimate ring ceremony in Mumbai. Imtiaz Ali shared a photo of the couple on Instagram Stories and asked followers to bless them. The engagement came months after Krish proposed to Ida in Norway on July 1.
Ida, who works as a filmmaker and founder of Refresh—a digital platform focused on youth mental health—has not yet announced a wedding date with Krish, who reportedly works as a quantitative researcher at a hedge fund. The couple has kept much of their relationship private, though they have shared vacation photos over the years.
A Proposal in the Norwegian Wilderness
Krish proposed to Ida on July 1 in Norway's Lofoten region, choosing the dramatic landscape as his backdrop. Moneycontrol reports he had prepared a handwritten note that he read before asking Ida to marry him. She said yes, and the couple later celebrated with the intimate ring ceremony in Mumbai attended by close family and friends.
Imtiaz Ali Gives Blessing to the Union
Imtiaz Ali called the engagement "the greatest happiness" and revealed that Krish had spoken with him before proposing. The filmmaker shared the moment on Instagram, posting a photo of the couple exchanging rings and asking his followers to bless them. His public blessing underscored his approval of the match.
Ida's Career Beyond Her Father's Shadow
Ida, 28, has carved her own path in filmmaking and entrepreneurship. She directed the short film "Lift" at just 17 and worked on projects including "Maya" and "Uljhe Hue." Beyond cinema, she founded Refresh, a digital mental health platform for young people, and delivered a TEDx Talk on pursuing creative ambitions.
Ida co-hosts the podcast "Why Are The Curtains Blue" with comedian Kareema Barry, discussing cinema and storytelling. The pair also launched Blue Curtain Films, a production company. Her work shows she is building a distinct identity separate from her father's acclaimed filmmaking legacy.
Krish Remains Out of the Entertainment Spotlight
Krish, who works in quantitative research at a hedge fund, has stayed largely private and away from the entertainment industry. His Instagram account is private, though he and Ida have shared occasional vacation pictures together over the years. He deliberately maintains a low public profile despite being engaged to a filmmaker's daughter.
