Sharmila Tagore and Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, Sangeeta Bijlani and Mohammad Azharuddin, Geeta Basra and Harbhajan Singh- the bond between Bollywood and cricket is very old in this country where cricketers and Bollywood actors are considered the ultimate celebrities and the latest to join the cricket-Bollywood bandwagon is former India fast-bowler Zaheer Khan and actress Sagarika Ghatke as the couple had a registered marriage on Thursday morning (November 23).

The registry as expected was a low-key affair with only close friends and family members attending it, but the newly-weds are set to throw a grand reception on November 27 at Taj Mahal Palace and Tower in Mumbai which will be attended by some of the most prominent names from cricket and Bollywood.
Meanwhile, messages poured in from all corners with the likes of Gautam Gambhir, VVS Laxman and other biggies from the game wishing the newly-weds.
