The pair hold a blessing and party with guests including Elton John, Kate Moss and Hurley's former companion, actor Hugh Grant. Most of the women wore traditional Indian saris.

They have signed a lucrative deal with Hello! magazine for exclusive rights to images of the event.

Elizabeth has requested pigs, cows and sheep as wedding presents. She said, "It's the best thing I've ever done. When we get our organic status we're going to farm properly and have a herd of cows, sheep and chickens." Her ex-boyfriend Hugh Grant has already sponsored a London Zoo monkey called Elizabeth as a wedding gift.

The couple arrived at the Mumbai airport on Monday. Celebrations will begin in Mumbai, where guests have been invited to the Hilton Towers Hotel on the city's waterfront to kit themselves out in traditional Indian dress.

After Mumbai, the party will move to Rajasthan where the couple will be married at a traditional Hindu ceremony at the Umwaid Bhawan Palace in Jodhpur in Rajasthan on March 9. The five days of festivities in India follow the couple's extravagant nuptuals at Winchcombe, in the Cotswolds, during the weekend. According to media report, Arun presented her with an 8,500 pounds diamond choker that Hurley spotted at posh jewellers Maharani on an earlier visit to Mumbai.

The couple have been dating since 2003. Nayar was previously married to Italian model Valentina Pedroni, while Hurley dated actor Hugh Grant for 10 years. She has a four-year-old son, Damian, from a relationship with film producer Stephen Bing.

Hurley won a scholarship to the London Studio Centre which taught courses for dance and theater.

Soon Hurley wore the punk rock look with pink hair and a nose ring, but to get work, she had to change her image to one that was castable.

After college, Hurley worked in the theater and made her screen debut in Aria (1987). Roles in Television, and a film Remando al viento (1988), which included a young actor named Hugh Grant soon, followed. European films followed her appearance in the BBC serial Christabel (1988) (TV).

Her film debut in a Hollywood movie was in the Wesley Snipes action drama Passenger 57 (1992). When Hugh Grant was picked up with Divine Brown, Hurley became headline news. Added to this was the fact that she was the model representing top cosmetics house Estee Lauder, and there was nowhere Hurley could go to get away from the press.

In 1994, Hurley and Hugh Grant set up Simian Films in partnership with Castle Rock Entertainment. As Head of Development, Hurley found the script and produced her first film Extreme Measures (1996), which stars Hugh Grant.

ELIZABETH Hurley has convinced her married lover, Arun Nayar, to file for divorce from his Italian model wife so he can marry her instead.
