In the serene backdrop of mountainous landscapes, Ira Khan, daughter of Bollywood icon Aamir Khan, tied the knot with her beau Nupur Shikhare, a revered fitness coach. The couple unveiled an alluring teaser of their intimate wedding celebration on Ira Khan’s Instagram account, giving the world a glimpse into their sacred union.
Instilled with the desire to celebrate amidst nature’s grandeur, Ira Khan and Nupur Shikhare envisioned an idyllic wedding in the mountains surrounded by their nearest and dearest. The shared video snippet showcased an enamored Ira adorned in a stunning white gown walking down the aisle, hand in hand with her doting father Aamir Khan and her mother Reena Dutta.
The emotion-filled footage revealed the tender moments of Aamir Khan and his former spouse Reena, as they sat closely, holding hands while listening to the heartfelt vows of their daughter and soon-to-be son-in-law. Aamir’s poignant reaction, tearing up during the exchange, was a testament to the profound joy and emotional significance of the occasion. The video further offered brief sightings of Aamir Khan’s second and ex-wife, Kiran Rao, alongside their son Azad. The joy was palpable as both Aamir and Reena were seen sharing a dance, while Ira and Nupur also reveled in their celebration, dancing exuberantly.
The Instagram post, accompanied by a heartwarming caption, amplified the couple’s emotional state. “This is only a teaser, but neither Ethereal nor us could wait. We wanted to celebrate in the mountains, with the people we love. And we did. It was stunning when we were there, but we didn’t realize we were getting married in Rivendell (@nupur_popeye now we have to watch the third Lord of the Rings). It’s difficult to put all the love and feelings of that day into words. Thankfully, we have this video instead,” Ira Khan expressed, unable to contain her excitement.
A love story that blossomed during the restrictive times of the COVID-19 lockdown period, Nupur Shikhare, in his capacity as a fitness trainer, swept Ira off her feet while he was training her and her father, Aamir Khan. Their journey from engagement—which occurred in 2022—to marital bliss was encapsulated within the prenuptial traditions, beginning with the vibrant Haldi ceremony in Mumbai. The couple made their union official on January 3 with a registered marriage held at Taj Lands End, Bandra, Mumbai.
Following the formalities of the registered marriage, the couple ventured to Udaipur for their white wedding ceremony, which spanned four glorious days. Christian rituals adorned their exchange of vows, solidifying their love in the picturesque setting of Rajasthan.
Not one to shy away from celebrating in grandeur, Ira Khan and Nupur Shikhare hosted a star-studded reception at the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre (NMACC) in Mumbai. The evening was embellished with the presence of illustrious guests, including the likes of the Ambanis, Salman Khan, and Rupali Ganguly, among other distinguished attendees.
Ira Khan’s stint on social media while revealing the enchanting teaser was a heartfelt ode to a day etched in love and familial warmth. The revelation of the wedding video drew widespread adulation and captivated the hearts of many, demonstrating the transcendent beauty of love that resonates beyond the confines of celebrity status.
The teaser was a prelude to what promises to be a more comprehensive showcase of the nuptials of Ira Khan and Nupur Shikhare—a celebration of love that undoubtedly was, and will be, as magical as the realm of Rivendell that it fondly echoed.
As the young couple embark on their journey together, their shared memories of a wedding in the embrace of the mountains stand as an emblem of their personal narrative, forever enshrined in time. (With inputs from IANS)
