Ankit Siwach

is no more an eligible bachelor. He will tie the knot with his girlfriend,

Nupur Bhatia

, in Uttarakhand, today. The couple had a

haldi ceremony

, yesterday. While the groom-to-be looked dapper in a green kurta and pink Nehru jacket, the soon-to-be-dulhan was resplendent in a dark pink sari.

Ankit told us, “My haldi function took place at my home in Meerut. We then went to the resort where Nupur is staying with her family, with the haldi that was to be applied on her.”

What followed was a lot of naach-gaana. Ankit shared, “We danced to Punjabi songs and beats of the dhol. It was a close-knit affair with only our families and friends in attendance. Nobody from the industry was present. Most of my showbiz friends will attend the reception on February 5.”

He added, “We exchanged rings after the haldi ceremony. I wore a turban for the function as Nupur is a Sikh. We are making sure that every ritual is performed according to both, Sikh and Hindu traditions. The wedding, too, will happen in two styles — first a Sikh

wedding

at the gurudwara followed by a Hindu wedding at the temple.”
