Saina Nehwal and Parupalli Kashyap pose after getting married in Hyderabad.

Indian shuttlers Saina Nehwal and Parupalli Kashyap, who came out in the open regarding their relation, tied the knots in a simple ceremony here in Hyderabad Friday.

“Saina got married as per court rules today at about 11.30 (AM),” her father Harvir Singh said.

The wedding took place at Saina’s residence in Orion villas at Raidurgam in Cyberabad.

“It was a small gathering of about 40 guests, including relatives of the Saina and Kashyap’s families. It was a very simple ceremony and December 16th will be the reception,” Singh said.

The guests included Governor of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana E.S.L.Narasimhan, according to Singh.

Saina posted a photograph with Kashyap on Friday announcing her marriage.

“Best match of my life...#justmarried,” she wrote in twitter.

Saina and Kashyap, who met at the academy of Pullela Gopichand, were in a relationship for quite some time now but the couple were never open about it.

 

Saina had confirmed the news of their wedding in October but the hectic international badminton schedule kept them busy.

Last month, they started extending their wedding invitation to important personalties, including Telangana MLA K.T Rama Rao, film star Chiranjeevi and VRK Rao — the owner of Pro Badminton League franchise Hyderabad Hunters.
