King of comedy, Sunil Pal, has been hitched. In a case of chat mangni, pat shaadi, the winner of Star One's Great Indian Laughter Challenge tied the knot with Sarita Mishra, an economics professor, on Sunday.

"As it was Mahashivratri, the mahurat was auspicious," says the dulha.
"I met Sarita six months ago, at the Raheja College in Santa Cruz, where she teaches. I was the special guest at the college. We got talking, exchanged numbers and soon realised there was more to it. Finally, we decided to get married."
The wedding was held at the Arya Samaj, in Santa Cruz. Guests included only family members, besides Johnny Lever, "as he is like a family member to me," says Pal, who features in The Great Indian Comedy Show. The Pals had a reception last night, at a Juhu hotel.
