After seven years in a relationship, director Vignesh Shivan and Lady Superstar Nayanthara tied the knot today at Sheraton Park Hotel, Mahabalipuram in Chennai. It's well-known that they met on the sets of Vignesh Shivan's 'Naanum Rowdy Dhaan' and became close.

Soon after, word of their romance spread, and the pair were spotted taking trips and celebrating festivals and birthdays together.

Staying true to his words, the pair is now formally married in the presence of family and friends after the release and success of their second film together, 'Kaathuvaakula Rendu Kathal.'
