Mumbai, Feb 16: By the time you read this, Lara Dutta will be Mrs Mahesh Bhupathi. The actress had a registered marriage with the tennis star in Mumbai today.
It was attended only by his and her family at the groom's Bandra residence.
The actress wore a white outfit from designer Ritu Kumar's Falaknama collection. Later today, Mr and Mrs Bhupathi will fly down to Goa.
There will be a sangeet on February 18 at Club Fresh, a newly opened beach resort on Candolim beach, a venue chosen by the bride herself.
At the sangeet, Lara will don a Manav Gangwani sunflower orange lehnga studded with Swarovski crystals, while Mahesh will wear an ivory coloured kurta pajama with a sunflower orange stole. Lara will also wear a traditional polki jewelry set in gold and uncut diamonds.
The functions have been put together by wedding planners, Dreamz Kraft, run by Priti Sidhwani (sister-in-law of Ritesh Sidhwani, who is also producer of Don 2 featuring Lara).
The following day the couple will have a Christian-style wedding at the Sunset Venue the Taj Aguada. The setting at Lara-Mahesh's wedding and Club Fresh will be very Victorian in keeping with the bride's taste.
Lara will wear a white Ellie Saab gown with jewellery in white gold and diamonds, while the Tennis star will be seen in a black and white tuxedo designed by an international designer.
