Supermodel Shubra Aiyappa’s first steps into Kannada cinema were with a song in Shivarajkumar’s Vajrakaya. Sung by Tamil superstar Dhanush, the song, No Problem, is still as popular as when it came out. Despite this good start, though, Shubra’s career in Kannada cinema did not take off as she’s expected. A film with director Suni, John Seena, was announced, but didn’t take off and it was only in 2022 that she was seen again onscreen, as one of two heroines in Diganth’s Thimayya and Thimayya.

While her film career didn’t soar, her personal life was on the upswing. The actress got engaged a year ago, when her long-time boyfriend Vishal Sivappa popped the question during a holiday in Maldives. Vishal, a Bengaluru-based businessman with roots in Kodagu, had gone down on one knee at a restaurant with a private beach and gazebo. She, of course, said yes. The duo had met a few earlier through common friends, although they already knew of each other. But they began dating only after they were formally introduced by a cousin.

Shubra and Vishal got married at his 150-year-old ancestral home in Kodagu on Wednesday, January 18. Sharing images from her wedding on social media, Shubra wrote, “Vishal and I got married in a big house in front of our loved ones. This is his house of 150 years ago. We felt the love of this joyous occasion with our near and dear ones at this beautiful place.”
