Dubai, Dec 27 (IANS): Pakistani actress Veena Malik, who wed businessman Asad Bashir Khan Khattak here earlier this week, has thanked her well-wishers for their blessings. She seeks prayers for the new chapter in her life.

"Thank you all my friends for your good wishes. On this new journey of my life, I need your prayers and good wishes. Much love," Veena posted on her Twitter page Friday.

Veena married her family friend Asad Bashir here on Christmas. She hosted a wedding reception on the following day with her relatives and close friends in attendance.

"You Asad Bashir complete me. I love you," Veena posted as a caption to one photograph.

Her spouse responded with a special tweet: "I love you too my princess."
