Urmila Matondkar Got Married With Kashmiri Muslim Man

‘Rangeela' actress Urmila Matondkar, a brahman girl got married to her Kashmiri Muslim boyfriend Mohsin Akhtar Mir recently in a traditional Hindu ceremony at her Bandra residence in Mumbai. The wedding was a very private affair with only Urmila and Mohsin's family and closest friends attending the auspicious ceremony. However, as per the latest reports on BollywoodLife.com, the newly-married couple will now have a Muslim wedding, aka Nikah, soon after their marriage is registered this week. The couple even plan to throw a grand and lavish reception for the film fraternity and friends outside the industry in a few days from now. Looks like, there are celebrations galore at Urmila's residence, at least, for a few days!

According to reports, the two had met during Manish's niece's wedding in 2014 and hit it off immediately. While the wedding was a close-knit affair, only one Bollywood celeb had made it there. It was Mohsin and Urmila's mutual friend, Manish Malhotra.

Mohsin Akhtar Mir is a part of the Indian film industry. However, that was not always the case. Mohsin is the scion of a well-to-do Kashmiri business family. Like most families, Mohsin's parents wanted him to takeover the reins of the family business once he was 21. They also wanted him to tie the knot and settle down. But, Mohsin, who was bitten by the acting bug, had other plans. He ran away from home and came to Mumbai to chart his own course in Bollywood.

Mohsin Akhtar Mir was a part of Farhan Akhtar-starrer, 'Luck By Chance.' The actor had a very short role but one that was impactful. He played the male model who proved to be Farhan's competitor in the film. Mohsin has played the lead role in 'It's A Man's World.' He is a male prostitute in the film that was directed by Saurabh Sengupta and also starred Mouli Ganguly. He was also a part of the film, 'Mumbai Mast Kalandar.'

Mohsin, who now delves into the Kashmiri embroidery business, is ten years younger to Urmila Matondkar, who turned 42 recently. Mohsin was the second runner-up at the Mr India model hunt of 2007. While he has gone back to his roots and is at the helm of his family business, Mohsin was also a part of AR Rahman's music video, 'Taj Mahal.'
