Russell Brand and Karty Perry are engaged.

Russell Brand, the 34 year-old British comic star proposed to the singer who is American singer during a spiritual ceremony in India on New Year’s Eve (31.12.09), and Katy, 25, gleefully accepted.

Russell had organized the holiday as a surprise Christmas gift to Perry according to our source.

The source said: “She told him how much she loved Indian culture while they were eating curry in England, so he surprised her.”

The ceremony took place at the foot of a mountain in the city of Jaipur, on a New Year’s Eve just before midnight with the couples dressed in traditional Indian outfits

A source said: “They wanted to take part in a traditional ceremony and thought there was no better time than on New Year’s Eve.

“The ceremony is usually used to bless new couples in the hope it might lead them toward marriage.”
Russell is also said to have given the ‘Hot n Cold’ singer a large, square-cut diamond ring, set in a platinum band from upmarket jeweller Cartier.

He was spotted shopping for the ring in London three weeks ago, sparking speculation the couple – who have been dating since last September – were to get engaged.

Russell has told friends: “Katy’s managed to tame me. This is it – I’m completely in love.”

The pair are now said to have moved on to Thailand to celebrate their engagement.
