Don’t we love resorting to throwback pictures and videos and taking a trip down the memory lane whenever we feel low? With the extension of COVID-19 lockdown, it has hit us hard and is taking a toll on us. But no matter how hard it is, we have to follow the quarantine protocol and figure out ways to while away our time at home. While some are busy doing the household chores, following the fitness regime, channelling their inner chefs, others are digging up their albums and cherishing the memories they have created over the years. Shahid Kapoor’s wife, Mira Rajput Kapoor is no different. (Also Read: Maanayata Dutt's Comment On Step-Daughter Trishala Dutt's Picture With Mom Richa Sharma Is Pure Love)
In 2015, the marriage of the most eligible bachelor of B-town, Shahid Kapoor and a 21-year-old Delhi-based girl, Mira Rajput had raised a lot of eyebrows due to the huge age gap between them. Before Mira, Shahid was linked with a lot of B-town divas but little did he knew that his ‘forever’ doesn’t belong to the industry. Married in July 2015, Shahid and Mira are knitting their own sweet fairytale with two adorable kids, Misha Kapoor and Zain Kapoor.

Even though it has been almost five years now since the Bollywood heartthrob, Shahid Kapoor had announced his ‘taken’ status, we still drool over the beautiful pictures from his wedding with Mira Rajput. While there are a lot of pictures from their pre-wedding ceremonies and reception, there’re only a few from Shahid and Mira’s Gurudwara wedding. The mahurat of Shahid and Mira's wedding was 11 am when they had a simple Gurudwara wedding. With only their closest of members were in attendance, Shahid had opted for a white kurta-pyjama along with a safa, while his then-newbie bride, Mira had donned a simple peach and green suit, with a shell maang-teeka and very minimal makeup. Here’s a rare unseen picture from Shahid and Mira’s Gurudwara wedding as they took their chaar laava (four pheras)!
