Khatija Rahman, the daughter of double Oscar award winning music director AR Rahman tied the knot with audio engineer Riyasdeen Shaik Mohamed. The wedding was attended by their close family members and friends. They got engaged in the month of December last year.
AR Rahman took to his twitter and shared a family photograph from the wedding ceremony which also had a portrait of his late mother displayed near the seating area of the bride and groom.
The pic features bride and groom in white wedding ensembles as they sit on a sofa. AR Rahman’s elder daughter Raheema, wife Saira Banu, the music composer himself and his son Ameen are seen standing behind the newly wed couple.
AR Rahman captioned the pic, , “May the Almighty bless the couple .. thanking you in advance for your good wishes and love @khatija.rahman @riyasdeenriyan #nikkahceremony #marriage.” As soon as the music director shared the photo on social media, the fans showered him and the couple with congratulatory messages.
In 2020, AR Rahman’ daughter Khatija was embroiled in a controversy when writer Taslima Nasreen called her burqa suffocating. However, she reacted to the controversy in a mature way. Khatija said that it was her choice to wear whatever she wanted.
