"The years to come are an opportunity for the couple to discover each other, while also embarking together on the path of self-discovery," he adds in the letter

He went on to say, "May the couple's hearts, minds and actions be one. Being there by each other's side at all times, holding each other's hands in their quest to realise their dreams and aspirations, assuming responsibilities thoughtfully and affectionately, may the groom and the bride be perfect partners in the voyage of life by accepting each other's imperfections and learning from each other's virtues.

"Heartfelt gratitude for inviting me to the wedding ceremony. I once again extend my greetings and best wishes for the momentous occasion."

Jackky and Rakul took to Instagram Stories and shared the letter from the Prime Minister and expressed their gratitude.

Jackky wrote, "Thank you so much honourable PM @narendramodi ji. Your blessings mean a lot to us as we embark on this new journey."
