Bollywood stars Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor married each other in a low-key ceremony in Mumbai on April 14.
Alia Bhatt, 29 and, Kapoor, 39, have been dating for five years but have maintained a low-profile relationship, apart from occasional pictures on social media and rare appearances together.
The ceremony was held at Kapoor’s house in the up-market Mumbai suburb of Bandra. Guests were given strict instructions not to share pictures or videos from the ceremony.
The first photos were shared on Alia’s Instagram, where she wrote, “Today, surrounded by our family and friends, at home … in our favourite spot – the balcony we’ve spent the last 5 years of our relationship – we got married. With so much already behind us, we can’t wait to build more memories together … memories that are full of love, laughter, comfortable silences, movie nights, silly fights, wine delights and Chinese bites. Thank you for all the love and light during this very momentous time in our lives. It has made this moment all the more special. Love, Ranbir and Alia.”
Alia Bhatt’s last Bollywood release in theatres, Gangubai Kathaiwadi, made more than 2 billion rupees ($26 million) at the box office after its release in February.
Both she and Kapoor come from film families and several Bollywood actors including Kareena Kapoor attended the ceremony.
