Malayalam film actors Fahad Fazil and Nazriya Nazim tied the knot on Thursday in an intimate ceremony on the outskirts of Thiruvananthapuram.

The invitation to the ‘nikah’, performed in a convention complex was limited to relatives, family friends and a few chosen bigwigs from the film industry and politics.

Fahad, son of director—producer Fazil, got engaged to Nazriya in January this year after they grew closer during the shooting of a film. Fazil is a well-known Malayalam-Tamil director of super hit films in the the laste 80s and 90s.

The parents of the couple have held that the alliance was as an arranged marriage after both the families discussed it.

Fahad made his debut in 2002 with not—so—very successful ‘Kaiyethum Doorath’, directed by his father. But after lying low for some time, he made a sensational comeback doing varied roles with great ease and originality.

The talented youngster, who displayed great versatility, bagged many awards in his second innings and won critical appreciation for a variety of roles.

Nazriya debuted as a child artist in 2006 with the Mammootty film ‘Palunku,’ directed by Blessy. She also had a striking stint as TV anchor and went on to do lead roles in movies. Nazriya has also acted in several films in Tamil in the last couple of years.
