Kumar Gaurav’s daughter marries Amrohi’s grandson.

In March, Kamal Amrohi's grandson Bilal confessed his love for Kumar Gaurav and Namrata Dutt's daughter Saachi and announced that he would marry her one day. Well, the couple who have been dating for the last four-and-a-half years, have tied the knot. 
Namrata confirmed the news saying, "Yes, Saachi has married Bilal. We wanted to keep it quiet, but now that you ask.... We had the option of calling everybody or just the immediate family. We chose the latter." The reason the wedding, which happened in Mumbai few days ago, was a hush-hush affair because Namrata's brother and Bunty's best buddy, Sanjay Dutt is in jail. 

Bilal's father Tajdar, who not so long ago was raving about Saachi saying she is "prettier than most heroines and could have become a top star if she wished," was more reticent this time saying, "I'm happy with whatever has happened but I don't wish to elaborate. It's a personal matter." 

Saachi got a diploma in fashion designing from SNDT University in 2006. After a six-month internship with designer Anna Singh, she started her own business and is doing well today. Bilal, who made his debut in Atul Agnihotri's O Teri, has bought a flat in Bandra in the same building as Kangana Ranaut. And buzz is, that's where the couple have started their new life together. 

"Namrata is very happy that they will be living in Mumbai, close to her," says a souce close to the family. 

Bilal has already bought their marital home. 

Divulging the details, Bilal’s doting father Tajdar Amrohi says, “Yes, Bilal has bought his home where he will live with Saachi after they get married. After marriage, it’s important for a couple to have an independent life. But Bilal and Saachi will remain very close to us. In fact, Saachi has been close to my family for many years. Her father’s bungalow is very close to our home." 

Tajdar showers praise on his future daughter-in-law. 

“She is one of the most beautiful girls in the industry, prettier than most of the heroines. She could have easily been one of the top heroines of our cinema but Saachi has chosen to be away from showbiz," he says. 

Since Saachi is so media-shy, didn’t she react adversely to Bilal’s public declaration of their relationship? 

Bilal’s father rises to his defense. “Not at all," he says. "In fact, I am very proud of Bilal for introducing his life-companion to the public before entering the entertainment industry. In our family, we do not hide our women. We are very proud of Bilal’s choice, and are looking forward to their marriage.” 

Bilal Amrohi made his debut in Bollywood with 'O Teri' a film which was produced by Atul Agnihotri and co-starred Pulkit Samrat. The bride, Saachi is a fashion designer and has her own fashion label. While promoting 'O Teri' in March, Bilal had admitted to seeing Saachi and had mentioned that they were planning to get married soon.

Kumar Gaurav: 'I'm an actor' Finally, at 40 plus, it seems like   Kumar Gaurav's   second innings has actually started. In the news because of his performance in the late Mazhar Khan's much belated Gang, he has also acted in two rather slick telefilms --  Sikander   and   Chocolate , both directed by Vivek Agnihotri -- which are due for release soon.   . He speaks of the experience in rather staccato bursts, as if unwilling to discuss a career noted, more than anything else, for its massive run of ill luck. For   Bunty , as he is fondly known, is acknowledged as a fine actor. His very first film, Love Story, brought him adulation and bouquets in no mean measure. The industry pundits predicted that a star worth watching had been born. Challenging roles like   Janam (1985)   and   Naam (1986)   followed, but he was unable to reactivate the audience's response to successful stars. Though everyone acknowledged his acti...

What has kept you occupied? Gaurav : I’ve been keeping busy in life. I have a travel business in Maldives and I was into some construction (business).
