It’s official! Sonam Kapoor is now Mrs Sonam Kapoor Ahuja. Actress Sonam Kapoor tied the knot with long-time beau Anand Ahuja at a ceremony in Mumbai on Tuesday morning.
She, who has earned the ‘fashionista’ tag in Bollywood with her experimental taste, chose a traditional bright red lehenga with heavy jewellery for her wedding day.
Sonam wore a lotus-motif ensemble by designer Anuradha Vakil and looked every bit the Punjabi bride with her hands adorned by henna, both wrists full of the ‘chooda’ and ‘kaleere’. She wore a statement maatha-patti.
The groom, a Delhi-based businessman, too looked dapper in a Raghavendra Rathore creation, a beige sherwani. He paired his sherwani with a beige and cream ‘saafa’ along with pearl and ruby strings.
The wedding took place at Sonam’s aunt’s place in Bandra, with a slew of close family and friends of the couple in attendance.
The wedding guest list included her family members Arjun Kapoor, Anshula Kapoor, Jahnvi Kapoor, Boney Kapoor among others.
The close friends of the family Karan Johar, Jacqueline Fernandes, Rani Mukerji, Jawed Akhtar, Karisma Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor with Saif Ali Khan and son Taimur also attended the wedding festivities.
Sonam’s father and veteran actor Anil Kapoor and brother Harshvardhan looked smart in sherwanis while cousins Janhvi, Khushi, Anshula, Shanaya and Arjun were dressed in ethnic designer wear for the special day.
Other family members Boney Kapoor, Sanjay Kapoor and Maheep Kapoor too were present for the occasion.
From the film and fashion industry, Amitabh Bachchan, Abhishek Bachchan, Karan Johar, Jacqueline Fernandez, Rani Mukerji, Swara Bhasker, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Saif Ali Khan, Karisma Kapoor, designer Masaba Gupta and stylist Pernia Qureshi were present.
The actress’ Veere Di Wedding co-star Kareena looked elegant in a soft pink ensemble as she walked colour co-ordinated with husband Saif and son Taimur.
The newlywed will make an appearance together for the media on Tuesday evening at a grand reception party at The Leela in Mumbai.
