2010 is going to be a grand year for neil Nitin Mukesh. The 'Jail' star who has been engaged to Mumbai based designer Priyanka Bhatia will tie the knot.

"I love Priyanka. She's the best thing to have happened to me, " Neil said.

Talking to a news daily, a source close to Neil said, "Neil and Priyanka hope to tie the knot next year. He is very possessive about Priyanka, and has kept her identity under wraps so far, to avoid undue attention.

However, some people saw that as a sign of him being ashamed at admitting his relationship. That is why he has decided to come out with it. Priyanka even accompanied him to the premiere of ‘Jail' but at that time no one knew about her, so she wasn't photographed."

Who is Priyanka Bhatia?

Priyanka, a fashion designer by profession, resides in Malabar Hills in Mumbai. She runs two boutiques — one on Peddar Road and another in Bandra. She did her schooling from Walsingham House School in Mumbai's Malabar Hills.

According to a common friend, "Priyanka has a great sense of style. She is quite reserved and does not talk about Neil at all."
