Amrita marries construction magnate

Bollywood actress Amrita Arora got married to Mumbai businessman Shakeel Ladakh at a church wedding Wednesday.

A nikah, as per Islamic rites, will be held tomorrow while an elaborate sangeet ceremony hosted by Salman Khan's sister Alvira and choreographed by Farah Khan is planned for this evening.

Amrita's best friend Kareena Kapoor will be the bridesmaid at the Friday celebration. Amrita, 31, has been going around with construction magnate Shakeel after she broke off with her British cricketer boyfriend Usman Afzal last July.

“For me, love lasts forever. Today's youth doesn't believe in carrying emotional baggage. One can pick up the pieces and move on in life,'' Amrita had said in an interview published weeks after she split with Usman.
