The couple was welcomed on the show in a grand style and the set was decorated with lights and flowers.

“She was first asked to sew a button on a shirt. Though she said that she had never stitched anything in her life, Bipasha sportingly gave it a shot as Karan looked on amusingly. Next, she was asked to tie a tie on Karan, who was seen teasing her endlessly,” the source added.

Bipasha and Karan got married on April 30.
