Bollywood actress Athiya Shetty and Indian cricketer KL Rahul tied the knot in a private ceremony on Monday.
The couple married in the presence of close family members and friends at Athiya’s actor father Suniel Shetty’s farmhouse in Khandala, which is around 82 km from Mumbai.
The newly married couple took to Instagram and shared pictures from the wedding ceremony.
“In your light, I learn to love…” Today, with our dearest people, we got married in the home that has brought us so much joy and peace. With a heart full of gratitude and love, we seek your blessings on this journey of togetherness,” they wrote on their respective social media handles.
The bride looked stunning in a pink lehenga while the groom looked handsome in a beige sherwani.
The newly married couple also posed for the photographers waiting outside the wedding venue after the ceremony.
The 30-year-old daughter of actors Suniel Shetty and Maana Shetty made her Bollywood debut in 2015 with Nikkhil Advani-directed “Hero”, a remake of co-producer Subhash Ghai’s 1983 classic of the same name.
Some of her other acting credits include the multi-starrer comedies “Mubarakan” and “Motichoor Chaknachoor” with Nawazuddin Siddiqui.
The 30-year-old Rahul is currently serving as the vice-captain of the Indian cricket team in Test cricket.
The two are likely to host a grand reception in Mumbai for their friends and colleagues ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL).
