Urmila Matondkar marries businessman-model Mir Mohsin Akhtar

Urmila Matondkar got married to businessman-model Mir Mohsin Akhtar in a private ceremony on March 3 afternoon.

Urmila Matondkar, who is best known for her performance in several 90s blockbusters like Rangeela, Kaun and Mast, has tied the knot with businessman-model Mir Mohsin Akhtar. The actor’s marriage comes close on the heels of that of another 90s’ heroine – Preity Zinta. Zinta walked down the aisle with Gene Goodenough on February 28 this year.

Urmila’s marriage was a low-key affair, with only friends and family in attendance. Her husband, Mir Mohsin Akhtar, is a businessman and model, who hails from Kashmir. The actor’s marriage ceremony took place in Mumbai on Thursday (March 3) afternoon, a report in Hindustan Times said.

The Tribune has quoted Urmila as saying, “We kept it an exclusive wedding with just family and friends at the celebration, since our families wanted the wedding to be a low-key affair. We mutually decided to keep it private. We seek your blessings as we embark on this new journey.”

Urmila and Mohsin are said to have met during designer Manish Malhotra’s niece’s wedding back in 2014. The two then began dating and have now tied the knot. Mohsin is reportedly 10 years younger to Urmila. He has done several modelling assignments in the past, and now deals in Kashmiri-embroidery business.

The 42-year-old actor ruled Bollywood back in the 90s. With films like Satya, Rangeela, Ek Hasina Thi and several other box-office hits to her credit, Urmila made a name for herself in the Hindi film industry. The actor has been missing from the silver screen for several years now. Matondkar made her debut in Marathi films with the 2014 movie Ajoba.
