New Delhi:
Actress Esha Deol, elder daughter of veteran actors Hema Malini and Dharmendra, tied the knot with her fiance Bharat Takhtani in a traditional south Indian style wedding at a temple in Mumbai.
The parents of the bride, Hema Malini and Dharmendra, were at the temple entrance to greet new son-in-law Bharat.
The guest list included celebrity friends of the Deols - Amitabh Bachchan, son Abhishek, Manoj Kumar, and Vyjayanthimala.
Looking radiant in a Kanjivaram sari, Hema Malini said: "The marriage went very good, there is a slight change in the rituals otherwise all Hindu rituals are the same. She found the right person and is going to be in Mumbai only so I am happy. We have completed the wedding on time."
Esha was clad in a red and gold Kanjivaram sari, sourced from Chennai for the wedding day by her mother, to which designer Neeta Lulla had made some changes.

Other guests included Vinod Khanna, Vyjayanthimala, Ramesh Sippy, Fardeen Khan, Poonam Sinha, Madhoo, Anu Malik, designer Neeta Lulla and her daughter Nishka.
The wedding today was the climax of the three-day festivities that included a sangeet (music), mehndi ceremony.
The family have also planned a grand reception tomorrow for the couple which, like Esha's sangeet, will be held at a five-star hotel. (With PTI inputs)
