In a joyous celebration of love and commitment, Pakistan's beloved superstar, Mahira Khan, has officially tied the knot with her boyfriend, Salim Karim. The news of their wedding has taken social media by storm, with fans and well-wishers sharing their excitement over the beautiful ceremony.

The first glimpse of the radiant bride was shared by Mahira's manager, Anushay Talha Khan, on Instagram. Mahira looked resplendent in a pastel lehenga choli, complete with an intricately designed veil, as she made her way down the aisle towards Salim. In another heartwarming video shared by Mahira's brother, Hissan Khan, the world got to see the dashing groom for the first time. Salim opted for a classic black sherwani paired with matching pyjamas and an elegant icy blue turban.

As glimpses of the videos reached fans, admirers of the star could not believe their eyes. Inarguably the biggest star in the country had managed to keep her private life strictly private. Celebrities and fans alike took a moment to let the news sink in, and eventually, congratulatory messages poured in from everywhere.

Veteran star Atiqa Odho took to her Instagram to pen, "Wishing my darling Mahira a very happy marriage and hope that she finds joy and bliss in everything she and Salim share together for years to come. This is a happy and difficult time for a woman in her position as establishing a blended family as a working woman is a huge task and I'm sure Mahira is more than capable of achieving even more success in both her personal and professional life. So let's celebrate with her and for them on this beautiful occasion. Love you Mahira. Stay strong and just keep looking ahead. May Allah always keep you in his care. Inshallah."

An X user exclaimed in shock, "What she's getting married? To whom?" Another said, "Wait what?! Happy for her man." Yet another X user stated, "She got remarried? Lucky him. Cannot wait to see the whole look." Once the questions subsided, the compliments and well-wishes began flowing freely.

"This makes me so happy!" began one X user. "A Pakistani bride in her late 30s with a kid, getting married for the second time for love - happy, looks beautiful and is celebrating her wedding!" Another echoed the sentiment, saying, "It feels so personal, man." Some X users even decided to state that the superstar was looking "heavenly." Others sang praises of her stunning beauty, saying she looked "breathtaking" and "beautiful."

One X user wrote, "Happy tears, wishing you all the happiness Mahira." Another said, "The dream wedding. Best wishes to Mahira Khan." Yet another stated, "Wow! Can’t wait to see more from this wedding! Many congratulations to the very lovely and talented Mahira Khan - a superstar, who we are proud to call our own!"

The union of Mahira and Salim has been a topic of interest for fans and media alike. It is thus that videos from the star's big day rapidly went viral. In the videos, Mahira can be seen making her way down the aisle towards Salim. Both the bride and groom can be seen overcome by an overwhelming sense of emotion. Once she reaches him, he embraces her and places a tender kiss on her head among the applause from the wedding-goers.

When questioned about her romantic life last year, Mahira shyly admitted to being in love, with a smile that spoke volumes about her happiness. She shared her feelings with veteran actor Samina Peerzada, who warmly congratulated her on finding love.

In an August 2023 podcast, Mahira further hinted at the love that now fills her life. When asked about her newfound happiness, the actress blushed, shared a joyful smile, and agreed. She also emphasized the importance of maintaining her privacy and keeping certain aspects of her personal life away from the public eye, stating, "There are some things that are mine, and they are mine."

Mahira's wedding has not only delighted her fans but also serves as a reminder of the importance of cherishing and safeguarding the privacy of one's personal life in the world of fame and public scrutiny. As the newlyweds embark on this beautiful journey together, their well-wishers eagerly await more glimpses of their blissful life as a married couple.
