announced about his marriage to Mira in a Mumbai event in March this year.
Shahid kept the details of his wedding under wraps, saying it is "my personal space".
"She (Mira) is a normal girl and I am a normal guy, and we should treat it like something normal and regular. It's my personal space and I won't get into the details," he had said.

This will be followed by a reception in Mumbai on July 12, for which there will be a separate invite - also designed by Delhi-based card maker Ravish Kapoor, who worked on the wedding invite.
