  • Veena Malik, the sexy but controversial Pakistani model and actress, married businessman Asad Bashir Khan Khattak in the Emirates court in Dubai on December 25.

    After it was made official, Veena posted a picture to Twitter of the wedding rings.

    “Destiny just plays its part, we were destined to be there on this particular day,” Veena said of the arranged marriage, which Asad’s parents wanted to happen as soon as possible, according to Deccan Chronicle.

    Asad added that functions would be held in Dubai, Pakistan, and the U.S., where Veena said that her husband promised her a “white wedding.”

    Asad, famous in Pakistani film as well as a singer, is old friends with Veena. Her father, Mohammad Ali, and Asad’s father, Senior Bashir, have been good friends since their army days and one day decided to change their friendship into a family relationship. Thus, the marriage.

    “I’m more than happy today, I think I’m the happiest girl in the world,” Veena said outside of the court.

    Veena, 29, is best known for her appearance in “Bigg Boss,” an Indian reality televsion show. In 2011, she appeared topless on the cover of For Him Magazine with ISI (the initials for Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence spy agency) written on her upper arm, causing controversy in Pakistan. Veena sued FHM over the images, saying they were doctored.

    Veena also made headlines in March 2011 by challenging the views of a Pakistani cleric on television.

    An imtimate wedding reception for Veena and Asad takes place today, December 26, in Dubai.
