A Bond Forged in Game and Strengthened in Life

What began as random squad matches turned into late-night gaming sessions, deep conversations, and a friendship that blossomed into love. Known in the game as OnFire X Hades and OnFire X Veronica, their usernames became symbols of their growing connection, both in and out of the game.

A Wedding Celebration Like No Other

With their families' blessings, Tanupreet and Jaspreet made history with an in-game wedding, part of KRAFTON India’s latest BGMI campaign. Legendary fashion designer Ritu Beri created BGMI-inspired wedding outfits, and the festivities included a Mehendi ceremony, a Sangeet with a virtual performance by Benny Dayal, and appearances by Bollywood director Karan Johar and Olympic gold medallist Neeraj Chopra.

Extending the Joy to the BGMI Community

BGMI celebrated the couple’s union with the ‘Shaadi Duo’ event, inviting players across India to team up, earn rewards, and explore features that foster connections, mirroring the couple’s journey from virtual teammates to life partners.
