Smart Jodi: Balraj Syal and Deepti Tuli – all you need to know about the lesser-known couple

Comedian Balraj Syal tied the knot with singer Deepti Tuli back in 2020. He had also participated in another wedding reality show but that is not where he met and fell in love with Deepti. In fact, Balraj’s marriage was fixed while he was working on Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi.

Balraj’s claim-to-fame

Balraj first became popular through the TV show Entertainment Ki Raat which aired in 2018. The show aired soon after his first appearance on Bigg Boss 11 (2017).

The comedian wanted to marry Shehnaaz Gill at one point

After Bigg Boss 13, Shehnaaz Gill was seen in the TV show called Mujhse Shaadi Karoge. She was searching for grooms. Balraj was a contestant on the show. On being asked about the same, he told various media portals that he participated because his parents wanted him to get married. Of course, neither Balraj nor Shehnaaz got married on that show.

Finally, his wedding revelation

It was in 2020 that Rohit Shetty revealed Balraj was actually getting married. The comedian then tied the knot with singer Deepti Tuli.

The Punjabi connection

Balraj is a popular name in Pollywood. He has worked on Diljit Dosanjh’s Sardaarji franchise. Deepti has also worked on music videos like Kite Door and Shukar Kar. Not just that, both he and Deepti actually hail from Punjab. The two dated for a year and then decided to tie the knot.

What are they doing on Smart Jodi?

Balraj and Deepti are out to prove they are as good as the other couples on the show. The two had a hush-hush wedding and thus, not many people know all the details about this couple, which they wish to change with the show.
