Bollywood's latest heartthrob Imran Khan has exchanged engagement rings with his sweetheart and long time girlfriend, Avantika Malik.

Even though Imran Khan will be announcing the engagement formally in January, the tinsel town is very happy for the couple.

"Yes it's true. But we're planning to have a proper ceremony later, so right now it's just for us and our families," admitted Imran refusing to reveal the wedding date.

But, a source said, "Imran had thrown a surprise party for Avantika on her birthday on July 18, a very private affair, with only very close family and friends present. There he surprised everyone by proposing to Avantika. Amidst much cheering, she accepted."

But this news came into light when the couple were spotted at Arjun Rampal's nightclub opening in Delhi. When Arjun found out about the couple's engagement, he doubled the celebration quotient by announcing it. All the Bollywood biggies who were part of the longue launch congratulated the couple.

The couple, who had been seeing each other for quite a while, have always maintained the secrecy about their relationship, even though they had been spotted at parties and events together.
