Private mehendi ceremony for Vidya Balan

Actress Vidya Balan, set to wed Siddharth Roy Kapur, opted for a private mehndi ceremony at her Khar residence here Wednesday night. It was attended by her family members, and Vidya's favourite, veteran actress Rekha marked her presence.

Vidya wore a yellow sari in typical Bengali style with floral ornaments. She even chose to go simple with her mehdni - rather than the usual full-hand intricate design, Vidya went with round blobs of henna on her palm.

The actress had a private family dinner Tuesday night, and is said to be tying the knot with Kapur, managing director - Studios, Disney UTV, here Friday.

A wedding reception will reportedly be held in Chennai Saturday.

If grapevine is to be believed, the nuptials will be conducted both in Punjabi and south Indian styles.
