Ritesh Deshmukh and Genelia D’Souza not going for honeymoon!

After days of celebrations and a grand wedding in Maharashtrian as well as Christian tradition, the newly-wedded Ritesh Deshmukh and Genelia D'Souza were headed to Vizag (not a honeymoon destination for sure) and the reason was cricket.

It was a Celebrity Cricket League (CCL) match which was important for Ritesh Deshmukh, who happens to be the vice captain of Mumbai Heroes. The couple that got married on Friday was in Vizag just two days later, for a match between Mumbai Heroes and Bengal Tigers which was eventually won by Mumbai Heroes. The happy and ecstatic Ritesh also tweeted, “Proud to be part of Mumbai Heroes -- whaattta win today. We enter the Semis now.”

If Ritesh was playing on field, his bride Genelia D’Souza, who is the team’s ambassador along with Kangana Ranaut, was in the stands cheering for her team with mehndi-coloured hands and wedding bangles on her wrists. The organisers also made sure that the match becomes a memorable one for the couple. They organized a special party for Ritesh-Genelia and ensured their stay is comfortable in Vizag.

Till now, there are no updates about the couple’s honeymoon, but there are reports suggesting that soon they will shift to their new abode. Ritesh Deshmukh and Genelia D’Souza together purchased a flat in Juhu in suburban Mumbai. Since Ritesh is also an architect, he will design the love nest.

But what about the honeymoon, guys?
