"Yes, I am getting married and it should be sometime in January. Everything was decided just a few days back. Now I want everyone's blessings. Please pray for me, " the actress told reporters Tuesday.

Navya is marrying Santhosh, who is from Kottayam in Kerala and works with a multinational company in Mumbai. The wedding will take place at Navya's hometown in Muthukulam in Alappuzha district.
