The wedding, which took place on April 4 in New Delhi, was conducted in a traditional South Indian ceremony.

The festivities were marked by a series of pre-wedding events.

Rajat Sharma described the evening as one filled with "music, laughter, and unforgettable moments" shared among close friends and well-wishers.

The star-studded guest list included Bollywood icons Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan, among other attendees. Salman Khan arrived with his sister Arpita Khan and her husband, actor Ayush Sharma.

Reflecting on the milestone, Rajat Sharma, a Padma Bhushan awardee best known for his long-running show Aap Ki Adalat, described raising his daughter as the "most beautiful journey" of his life.

The wedding was attended by several prominent figures from the film industry and the political world, all there to bless the newlyweds on their special day.
