With renowned names from politics and sports in attendance, Indian soccer team captain Sunil Chhetri wed his long-time girlfriend Sonam Bhattacharya at a posh city club on Monday.

Smartly turned out in a traditional Nepali attire, Chhetri rode to the wedding hall on a horse, and later changed into a printed sherwani as per Bengali tradition.

Sonam, on the other hand, was resplendent in a red and golden saree, and was seen smiling throughout the wedding ceremony.
