In one of the photos, Raqesh could be seen lifting Shamita in his arms while she blushed. For the photoshoot, Shamita also held Raqesh in a tight embrace. For her date night look, Shamita opted for a metallic off-shoulder dress with a thigh-high slit. Raqesh complemented her in a black and white outfit. After Shamita's exit from Bigg Boss 15, Raqesh dedicated a note to her, writing: “Learning, un-learning and learning again is a circle of our existence where victory is subjective but growth is certain. You experienced, you learnt, you evolved and you won almost everyone's heart. I am so proud of you."

Shamita and Raqesh's romance kicked off on Bigg Boss OTT - while Shamita went on to participate in Bigg Boss 15, Raqesh was only a part of the show for a brief while. At the grand finale of Bigg Boss 15, Raqesh defended his girlfriend and called out Tejasswi Prakash for age-shaming Shamita.
