Bollywood
playback
singer
Mohit
Chauhan
has
tied
the
knot
with
journalist
Prarthana
Gehlot
at
a
hotel
near
Shimla
on
Friday
night.
According
to
his
family
sources,
his
wedding,
which
was
held
at
the
hotel
at
Barog
10
kms
from
Solan,
was
a
low
key
affair
and
only
family
members
and
close
friends
had
attended
the
event.
Mohit
Chauhan
hails
from
Nahan
in
Sirmaur
district,
Himachal
Pradesh,
while
Prarthana,
who
is
working
with
an
English
magazine
in
Delhi,
belongs
to
Dehradun
in
Uttarakhand.
The
48-year-old
singer,
who
was
born
in
1964
in
Nahan,
started
singing
as
a
hobby.
But
Mohit's
interest
grew
in
music
and
he
formed
his
own
music
group
The
Hijackers
and
started
stage
performances.
Soon
he
became
a
popular
name
in
Himachal
and
adjoining
states,
but
shot
to
fame
nationally
with
his
band
Silk
Route
group
which
delivered
the
hit
number
'Dooba
dooba
rehta
hoon'.
However,
Mohit
Chauhan
started
his
Bollywood
career
with
his
first
song
'Gunchha
Koi'
in
Main,
Meri
Patni
Aur
Woh!
(2005).
The
singer
later
went
on
to
sing
a
number
of
chart-busting
songs
in
films
like
Delhi
6,
Jab
We
Met
and
Love
Aaj
Kal.
His
most
recent
success
was
as
Ranbir
Kapoor's
voice
in
the
film
Rockstar.
