m_id_74218_ayesha_takiaShe has been married for a month, but Ayesha Takia is still the blushing bride. Seated in the green room of photographer Vicky Idnani’s studio, touching up her make-up for a photo shoot, the 23-year-old actor laughs, “Seriously, being married makes me realise we should have done this the very first day we met. I recommend it to everyone.”

Takia and restaurateur Farhan Azmi dated for five years before they finally tied the knot. While many in Bollywood dated, broke up and found new love, Azmi and Takia went about town, professing their love for each other. “We got into the relationship knowing well that we would get married,” she says.

The restaurateur will even set a record of sorts!

He is said to be pitted opposite the Congress’s Milind Deora, the sitting MP from Mumbai South. If Farhan does agree to contest then it will be one of those rare occasions when a father and son duo has contested in the same elections.
