February 24: Superstar Kajol and longtime beau, actor Ajay Devgan, wed this evening with a simple, traditional Hindu ceremony. Contrary to expectations apart from close family and friends there were no invitees from the Hindi film industry.
The wedding which was attended by barely 50 people was conducted at Ajay Devgan8217;s plush terrace flat in Juhu and was out of bounds for press and photographers. In fact, following a report in an English daily that the marriage was to take place at a gurudwara in Versova, hundreds of fans and mediapersons gathered there from the morning to catch a glimpse of the stars. But this venue was later changed to maintain privacy.
According to sources, plans for a lavish wedding were cancelled following the death of Ajay Devgan8217;s grandmother a few days ago. The only pre-wedding function was a mehndi-cum-sangeet organised by the bride8217;s mother Tanuja at their residence in South Mumbai yesterday. Among the guests there were some of Kajol8217;s closest friends from the Bombay film industry including, Karan and Yash Johar, director Rahul Rawail who gave the actress her first break with Bekhudi and ace photographer Gautam Rajadhyakshya.
Kajol who was dressed in a green Maharashtrian saree arrived for the marriage accompanied by her mother and grandmother Shobhana Samarth. The couple leave tomorrow for a 15-day honeymoon to Europe and are back mid-March to resume shooting for home productions, Dil Kya Kare directed by Prakash Jha and Hindustan Ki Kasam.
