MUMBAI: Actress Bipasha Basu and her actor beau Karan Singh Grover tied the knot in a Bengali wedding ceremony here this evening.
The wedding, which took place at a South Mumbai Hotel, was a private affair with family and close friends in attendance, including Bipasha’s ex-boyfriend and now close friend Dino Morea, and hairstylist Sapna Bhavnani.
Bipasha ditched the typical Bengali bridal red-and- white saree for a red and golden lehenga-saree. The 37-year-old actress, however, completed her look with a topor and an elaborated makeup on forehead, typical of a Bengali bride.
Bipasha, whose husband is a Punjabi Sikh, wore chooda, which is a set of red and white bangles, worn especially by Punjabi brides.
The 34-year-old groom looked dashing in a white sherwani. Rather than coming on a ghodi, Karan arrived at the venue in a segway amid band-baaja celebration.
The couple followed the Bengali ritual of the bride covering her face with betel leaves and encircling the groom seven times, as he remains seated on the ‘piri’, a wooden seat.
The wedding will be followed by a white-themed reception and dinner, expected to be attended by the couple’s Bollywood friends. (AGENCIES)
