After a five-year courtship, actor Vir Das tied the knot with girlfriend Shivani Mathur at a ceremony in Sri Lanka to which only about 100 people were invited.
The marriage took place Oct 19 but the couple broke the news now.
“We wanted to have a small ceremony for our wedding. There were only about 100 people, comprising family and close friends,” Vir said in a statement.
“I preferred my wedding to be a quiet affair. The rule at the wedding event was that everyone (MUST) switch off their phones to spend quality time with each other,” he said.
The wedding saw a pool party, a rock concert, sangeet ceremony and the ‘pheras’.
Said a source: “Owing to Vir and Shivani’s busy schedule, the couple haven’t had the time to go for a honeymoon, but would be soon taking time out.”
The actor will be seen in films like “Santa Banta” and “Mastizaade” that will release in the first half of 2015.
