Newly-wed Shahid and Mira Kapoor
Father Pankaj Kapoor and step-mother Supriya Pathak
Shahid has to return to shoot celebrity dance reality show "Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa Reloaded", where he is coming in as a judge. And his film assignments include Vikas Bahls "Shaandaar" opposite Alia Bhatt and "Udta Punjab", which is produced by Vikramaditya Motwane.
After their wedding, the duo has no time for a honeymoon.
The groom arrived in Delhi only on Monday in time for his sangeet ceremony at a farmhouse, where he was seen dancing away with Mira on the song "Saj dhaj ke tashan mein rehna" -- as revealed by some videos that were leaked online. Another image featuring Shahid on one knee, with Mira dancing, went viral after celebrity photographer Rohan Shrestha shared it on Twitter on Monday night.
But before that, a post-wedding celebration is slated for Tuesday night at a luxury hotel, where Shahid has also booked the Presidential Suite, priced at over Rs.600,000 per night, for himself, a source stated. At another hotel, as many as 50 rooms were booked for the wedding guests.
According to sources close to the actor, he wanted their wedding also to be a simple affair, and he has left all the glamour and glitz to happen at a grand celebration in Mumbai on July 12. It is likely to be attended by Bollywood celebrities galore.
After having dated actress Kareena Kapoor Khan for three years and following link-ups with co-stars including Vidya Balan, Priyanka Chopra and Bipasha Basu, its interesting how Shahid -- son of veteran actors Pankaj Kapur and his now estranged wife Neelima Azim -- has chosen to settle down with a woman who has no previous connection with the film industry.
Shahid and Mira, who got engaged earlier this year, reportedly met at a satsang as both their families are followers of the religious group Radha Soami Satsang Beas.
The 35-year-old "Vivah" actor, wanted it to be a close-knit affair and so, only about 50 people are reported to have been present to witness his union with Mira, 21 and a graduate from Delhi universitys Lady Shri Ram College.
Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor on Tuesday tied the knot with Delhi-based Mira Rajput at a farmhouse here in a ceremony attended by close family members and a few friends of the couple.
