Krish Agrawal: Engagement Announcement
Ida Ali got engaged to her longtime boyfriend, Krish Agrawal, at an intimate Mumbai ceremony, with Imtiaz Ali sharing a glimpse of the celebration on Instagram on September 22. Ida wore a couture saree for the occasion, while Krish complemented her in a black sherwani. Imtiaz captioned the post simply, seeking blessings for “the newly engaged Krish Agrawal and Idaa” — a rare, heartfelt window into a private family moment from a filmmaker known for keeping his personal life largely out of the spotlight.
Who Is Krish Agrawal?
Krish, 24, works as a quantitative researcher at a hedge fund — a field built on data, math, and probability models, a world away from the cinema his soon-to-be father-in-law is known for. He and Ida have been together for years, bonding over a shared love of travel. While Ida is currently pursuing filmmaking, following somewhat in her father’s footsteps, Krish has built his career in finance and research.
A Proposal in Norway
The engagement comes after a romantic build-up. Krish proposed to Ida in Norway, and she shared glimpses of the moment on Instagram back on July 12, including a look at her diamond ring. Imtiaz Ali later spoke to Hindustan Times about the moment, calling it “the greatest happiness” and revealing that Krish had spoken to him before popping the question — a gesture that clearly meant a lot to the filmmaker.
