Two days after a "family drama", newly married couple Rahul Mahajan and Kolkata-based model Dimpy Ganguly, visited the Sidhhivinayak temple in Mumbai on Sunday.

Dimpi, 22, walked out of Rahul's home on Friday accusing that her husband punched, kicked and dragged her by hair.
She recently married to 36-year-old Rahul, son of late BJP leader Pramod Mahajan, with much fanfare in a reality show "Rahul Dulhaniya Le Jayega" in March this year.

"We have no issues between us and I love my wife. We are together and therefore came to take blessings of the God," Rahul told reporters.

However, Dimpi refused to speak to the media.

Dimpi had earlier told media, "Rahul beat me up early on Thursday morning after waking me up to know the contents of a message that had beeped on my phone. When I asked him to go back to sleep, he flew into a rage and began hitting me. He punched, kicked and dragged me by hair.

Dimpy showed bruises on her skin and right and left hand. Her left cheek was also swollen and she had a lump on her head.
The model, who had left her husband's home vowing never to return, told reporters that she had had a "conversation" with Rahul, who expressed regret. Dimpy returned to the Mahajan residence in Worli on the same day. 

Rahul's former wife Shweta Singh, who was his childhood friend, had accused him of physically abusing her. The couple got divorced in 2008 after which Rahul participated in Colors' reality show "Big Boss".

He continued to be in the limelight for his closeness with co-contestants Monica Bedi and Payal Rohatgi.

Incidentally, Rohatgi too had alleged harassment by Rahul, saying he has been calling her asking for a second chance.
