Wedding bells for Ritesh and Genelia

The actor is all set to tie the knot with Genelia D'Souza this year Riteish Deshmukh and Genelia D'Souza are all set to solemnise their love story. The lovebirds who met on the set of their 2003 film Tujhe Meri Kasam and fell in love, will get married in 2010. It is believed that the families have given Ritiesh their blessings and the shaadi will take place in July this year. The Deshmukhs is already making preparations and have told their relatives and close friends about a tentative wedding date. Those close to Riteish always knew that he would eventually get married to her. She is the first girl he invited home to meet his parents. At the time, the family had reservations about him bringing in a non-Maratha bahu but they saw that their beta was serious even after six years. It's been over four years since his older  brother Amit got married, and there was pressure  for Riteish to get married. He made it clear that his choice was Genelia who he calls Genes lovingly. Both sets of parents met and now the wheels have been set in motion. The couple has also purchased property at Pali Hill where they plan to shift post-wedding. "Riteish being an architect has been busy hunting property for the last few months. In fact, he and Genelia have sat down and designed the interiors. Some of their close friends have even seen the blueprint and it looks very impressive." Giving details about the wedding the source adds, "The Deshmukhs  have many relatives from Latur and they've all have been informed." The shaadi was even a hot topic of discussion Sunday night when Riteish invited Shah Rukh, Gauri, Karan, Sajid Khan along with some friends over for dinner. "Whenever his friends are over, they all keep teasing and prodding him about tying the knot. Now he's finally told them that he is taking the plunge this year."
