Mumbai : After being delayed twice, the much in love couple Ayesha Takia and her restaurateur beau Farhan Azmi have finally zeroed in on a date to tie the knot.
The couple that came under the arc lights after they reportedly decided to get married, initially had to get hitched on Christmas eve last year. But saddened by the terror attacks that paralyzed Mumbai, the two postponed the special day.
Speaking to reporters after the terror attack, Farhan had said, "When Ayesha heard news about the attacks, she broke down. Dad (Samajwadi Party leader, Abu Azmi) was in a hospital recuperating after an operation. He too started crying when he heard about the attacks. None of us is in the mood for any celebrations this year. Our mood is too grim and sombre. As of now, there can be no wedding celebrations. The wedding might now happen in mid-2009. That too will be a small and private affair."
However with the D-Day just around the corner, the couple is busy making the best of arrangements for their dream wedding. Speaking to a news daily, Ayesha’s friend said, "The wedding will take place in Mumbai. Ayesha is frantically running around shopping for her trousseau. The decision to get married by February end was taken only two days ago. Both Farhan and Ayesha are very happy as they are finally getting married".
Well, here’s wishing the couple a happy married life!
