Dia Mirza and Sahil Sangha's beautiful love story

October 18, 2014

Dia Mirza wedMumbai, Oct 18: Tying the knot with her longtime beau Sahil Sangha, Dia Mirza has come a long way after winning the Miss Asia Pacific title. Counted among the most beautiful actresses in Bollywood, Dia Mirza may have taken a sabbatical from acting but she still rules the hearts of her fans. The actress has now ventured into filmmaking with beau Sahil and is now set to embark on a new chapter with him. Read on about their simple but special love story.

Sahil Sangha and Dia Mirza own a film production company called Born Free Entertainment. The first production venture under their banner was Love Breakups Zindagi in 2011 which was directed by Sahil himself. Vidya Balan-starrer Bobby Jasoos was their latest venture that was a critically acclaimed commercial success. Dia had said during the promotions of Bobby Jasoos that the film is an answer to those who think that she is short of work. Sahil and Dia wish to make their production house, a credible brand and want to give chance to new directors and actors.

Sahil and Dia have been often spotted together at the parties, red carpets and events. The two not only complement each other in their choices, but are also counted among the best jodis of the B-town. After the rumours of their link-up, Dia Mirza finally announced their union at the music launch of their film Love Breakups Zindagi. However, it took them four years to tie the knot.

As told to Bombay Times, Dia Mirza had been waiting since a long time for Sahil to propose marriage, but he took his time with the promise of making it special which he did. She even joked that when their marriage date got fixed last year, she thought he would propose after the wedding. Finally Sahil proposed to Dia this year in the middle of the Brooklyn Bridge in New York. He got down on his knees and held her hand to confess his love amid a crowd of clapping tourists. And she was left with a smile on her face and tears in her eyes.

A few serious medical emergencies led them to delay their wedding plans until things were set right. Also, they got busy with their production venture Bobby Jasoos which further delayed their wedding. After a long wait and much speculations, they finally announced that the wedding would take place on October 18, in Delhi. Dia Mirza also skipped the Maharashtra Assembly Elections for her wedding celebrations.

Sahil and Dia Mirza first met when he visited her with a script. According to Bombay Times, Vikram Phadnis up Sahil's meeting with Dia Mirza. Sahil had earlier worked with Vikram in Salaam-E-Ishq. Interestingly, they didn't realise until much later that they were in love. Sahil once told Bombay Times in an interview, "What I love the most about her is that in one word, she is pure. She is very giving and all heart, which is also a problem as then you need to take care of your heart. She lights up a room as soon as she walks in."

As told to Filmfare, both Dia and Sahil love eating and cooking and often hang around in the kitchen. While Dia is a traditional cook with an expertise in Hyderabadi cuisine specially biryani, Sahil has a flair for cooking Italian, Continental, European and Thai food. Sahil has worked as a waiter and has also tried his hands at publishing and working as a salesman. Sahil loves to cook for his lady.
