After a five-year courtship, actor Vir Das married girlfriend Shivani Mathur at a secret ceremony in Sri Lanka. The duo exchanged vows on October 19.
“We wanted to have a small ceremony for our wedding. There were only about 100 people, comprising family and close friends,” Das said in a statement.
“I preferred my wedding to be a quiet affair. The rule at the wedding event was that everyone switched off their smartphones to spend quality time with each other,” he added.
The wedding featured a pool party, a rock concert, the sangeet ceremony and then the pheras (seven rounds around a fire).
“Owing to Vir and Shivani’s busy schedule, the couple haven’t had the time to go for a honeymoon, but they would be soon taking time out for it,” said a source.
The actor will be seen in Bollywood films such as Santa Banta and Mastizaade that will release in the first half of 2015.
