Nayyar, 30, met the former Miss India, 28, in New Delhi three years ago. “She unlocked something in me that I had never felt before,” the actor tells PEOPLE.

PHOTOS: Inside Big Bang Theory Star Kunal Nayyar’s Bollywood Wedding When Nayyar and Kapur first saw each other at the ceremony, they adorned each other with handmade garlands. At the actual wedding ceremony, Nayyar held a cup with a white lotus flower. “I dipped the flower in purified water and then threw it into the fire,” he says. And during the Mehndi portion of the wedding, thrown by Kapur’s family, “All of the women get henna and all the men drink Bloody Marys,” says Nayyar. “The men feed the women, because they have to wait for the henna to dry.” The newlyweds later enjoyed unwinding after “six days of partying.” Nayyar’s Big Bang castmates “unfortunately couldn’t make it.” For more photos of the wedding celebration, pick up PEOPLE, on newsstands now Close
