Director Ashwin Saravanan ties the knot with scenarist Kaavya Ramkumar

Director Ashwin Saravanan noted for his films Maya and Game Over, has tied the knot with Kaavya Ramkumar, with whom he co-wrote Game Over. The two are also jointly scripting the upcoming Nayanthara-starrer Connect.

Their wedding was held on Thursday at a temple at Acharapakkam. Only close friends and family members attended the function.

About their wedding, Ashwin says, "We got married at a small temple in Acharapakkam on Thursday. The place is on the way from Chennai to Pondicherry. We had originally planned an event in which we could invite everyone. However, the pandemic forced us to keep pushing the event. Eventually, both families felt that we should have a simple wedding first and then later have a reception when things become normal."

Talking about Kaavya, Ashwin says, "Kaavya is a doctor by profession. She used to write short stories, which she would post on the web. I liked those stories and got in touch with her to see if we could work together. We worked on Game Over and felt our relationship was very comfortable."

The director announced his wedding on Twitter. Posting pictures from the ceremony, he wrote, "It started with pen and paper. It has ended in poetry. Kaavya Ramkumar, thank you for riding out the storm with me every single time. Doing this with you, especially during the third wave, was an adventure by itself."
