Bollywood actress and the daughter of Indian film legends Dharmendra and Hema Malini, Esha Deol, is all set to tie the nuptial knot with businessman Bharat Takhtani on June 29. Those who are in the know say only close friends and relatives of the bride and groom will be invited to the wedding. As for the venue, it has been decided that the marriage will take place at a temple in suburban Mumbai.

Recently talking to a journalist Hema Malini said it was not possible to organise the wedding at their home. Instead they chose a temple which is ‘a perfect place for matrimony’.

Well, best wishes Esha D.
