/> On the morning after his son's engagement to the most eminent bachelor-girl in India, the Big B is busy taking congratulatory calls and receiving guests at their residence Jalsa. Jaya and Abhishek had to rush for the shooting of Goldie Behl's Drona.

Overcome with joy the Big says, "Abhishek and Aishwarya were in Canada and USA for the premiere of Guru. On Saturday night after the premiere at New York, he proposed to her and she accepted. He called me, took my blessings, and then they were on a plane to Mumbai."

The association was solemnized on Sunday evening. "Every father wishes for his children to settle down in life and get domesticated, I am no different. It's an extremely happy moment when children decide to settle down. After my son and Aishwarya returned from Toronto and New York we did a small shagun at her place."

The wedding date hasn't been decided yet. "They are all out of town. Abhi and Jaya left this morning for Rajasthan for Goldie's film. Ash is shooting in Karjat for Jodha -Akbar. Her father is also out of town and once they all come back we shall sit and discuss how when and where."

The Big B is most happy with Abhishek's choice of life partner. "Aishwarya is my son's choice and our choice as well, and we are very happy with that. She's a simple, traditional and a home-loving individual, warm and endearing.

Her inner beauty is far greater than her much -renowned outer beauty. Abhishek's choice shall be our choice and our happiness. Their acclaim in their film Guru and the success of the film, both commercially and critically just adds to my joy."
