The 30-year-old ‘Ghajini’ star tied the knot in a simple, private ceremony attended by family and close friends at a resort hotel.

Bollywood superstar and couple’s close friend Akshay Kumar attended the function. Delhi-based music group Elohim Worship band performed at the wedding. The evening ceremony, which included jai mala and pheras, atypical of North Indian wedding, was also attended by Akshay Kumar. The groom arrived in an open car for the baarat. Both the functions were kept private with tight security arranged at the hotel entrance. Asin was pretty in a Sabyasachi lehenga for the evening wedding ceremony.

A private party is likely to be held at Rahul Sharma’s Delhi farmhouse on January 20 and a grand reception will be held in Mumbai for the couple’s friends and colleagues on January 23. It was revealed in August last year that the duo was seeing each other and was set to marry. Asin, known to be a private person, remained mostly silent on her love life.

Akshay, Asin’s co-star in “Housefull 2” and “Khiladi 786”, had played the cupid by introducing the couple. Asin, who made her Bollywood debut opposite superstar Aamir Khan in “Ghajini”, was last seen in 2015 comedy “All Is Well”. She has wrapped up all her Bollywood assignments and has taken a sabbatical from acting.
