Indian Matchmaking
In 2020, he participated in the Netflix series ‘Indian Matchmaking.’ In 2020, while he was a participant in the TV series ‘Indian Matchmaking,’ his father shared that he had rejected 150 girls for marriage in just 18 months. He was badly trolled by the netizens for this, and some people even called him gay. Pradhyuman then took to Instagram to talk about it. He said,
It’s been misunderstood . Match makers send you several biodata (not proposals) to go through to find the suitable individual and figure who seems the right preference. It’s only the first stage ,followed by verification, preferences, intentions, telephonic conversations and finally a meeting. I have met only a couple of them out of these biodata. Just like everyone else I am also looking for a beautiful life, full of growth and experiences with my partner , with whom I can be mentally aligned and I am taking my time because it’s for life and don’t want to rush into it. And for those of you who are curious – I am not gay nor bisexual. I absolutely love Foxnuts and my door knob is just a creative photo frame reminding me of two life-death experiences.”
During an interview, while talking about the negative comments, he said,
I tried to understand the mindset of a ‘hater’, only to realize that they had based their assumptions on my interests in things like fashion, cooking, and the societal pressure of taking time to choose a life-partner.”
