<div class="section1"><div class="Normal"><span style="" font-style:="" italic="">Mehndi laga ke rakhna, doli saja ke rakhna. </span>This is what close friends of Sonali Bendre and Goldie Behl had planned for the lovely couple who tied the knot yesterday at a very private function at Raheja’s Classique Club at Lokhandwala.<br />The couple got married according Arya Samaj rites and decided to keep the wedding a low-key affair.However, this does not mean that the dulha and dulhan did not look stunning. In fact, most of Sonali’s friends and relatives were awestruck with the simplicity that made the bride look ravishing. In a red Abu-Jani sari with a gold gota border, Sonali glowed. Goldie looked as smashing in an Abu Jani chikan kurta.<br />Sonali was shooting in Hyderabad just a day earlier and had to be coaxed by friends to sit down and put some mehndi. Aarti Surendranath and Pramod Navalkar were Sonali’s special guests. The baraatis were friends of the couple. Abhishek and Jaya Bachchan, Hrithik Roshan, Krishna Raj Kapoor, Randhir Kapoor, Dimple Kapadia, Twinkle Khanna, Nagarjuna and Amala made this simple affair a star-studded one. <br />The wedding ceremony was followed by cocktails.<br /><span style="" font-style:="" italic="">simichandoke@indiatimes.com</span> </div> </div>
