Shahid Kapoor and Mira Rajput tied the knot in 2015. Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma got married in 2017. But what binds them is that these A-lister weddings were celebrated intimately in the presence of loved ones and away from media's scrutiny, a far cry from what Bollywood weddings are all about.
Grand, extravagant weddings will never run dry in India. Yet, many celebrities today are opting for low-key, intimate ceremonies with just family and close friends. Even though it is not a new concept, even among celebs, there's a huge shift seen in the way celebrities are choosing more intimate settings.
The latest to join this club is India's star javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra. He surprised everyone on Monday by announcing his wedding to tennis player and coach Himani Mor through a heartfelt social media post. No one had the slightest clue about their big day until Neeraj broke the news.

Neeraj Chopra and Himani Mor got married in Kumarhatti, away from the cameras, with the mountains in the backdrop and a guest list with only about 70 people invited.
The wedding of the sports star was kept under wraps with top-level secrecy. As per a report by The Tribune, no one was allowed to bring mobile phones or gadgets to the venue to ensure no photos leaked from the big day. The resort staff were given strict instructions to keep everything hush-hush.
The pandemic played a pivotal role in redefining how we celebrate milestones. But even as the world opened up, this trend of intimate weddings continued. From Taapsee Pannu and Mathias Boe's quiet wedding ceremony to Aditi Rao Hydari and Siddharth getting married in a temple, or Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal registering their marriage with loved ones around, the trend has kept up with times.
