The two are known to be very close and Vidya has often said that she admires the legendary actor, who like her, also hails from Chennai.
After the ceremony, Vidya stepped out with her parents and elder sister and held up her hands to show her mehendi to the waiting media.
The actor was dressed in a Bengali style Sabyasachi Mukherjee sari paired with pearl ornaments. At the wedding, she will wear two saris since there’s a change in sari for rituals at Tamil marriages.
Sabyasachi has designed the saris in warm-shaded silk sourced from Chennai.
