The Bandra-based groom came to the venue on a white horse before the couple took the marriage vows around a sacred fire.
Wearing a Kanjeevaram saree, Hema and her husband Dharmendra, looking dapper in a suit, welcomed the groom at the temple.
Esha and Bharat got married in a south Indian style at the Iskcon temple in Juhu.
Esha was clad in a red and gold Kanjeevaram saree, sourced from Chennai for the wedding day by her mother, to which designer Neeta Lulla had made some changes.

The wedding today was the climax of the three-day festivities that included a sangeet (music), haldi and mehndi ceremony.

"I am very much happy for Esha...it is a very happy occasion for all of us. I am happy that she is getting settled," Abhay Deol told reporters.
"I am here as a family member to give my blessings to the couple," veteran actor Manoj Kumar said.
Yesteryear's actress Vyjayanthimala also said she was there to bless the "wonderful couple".
