After a lavish three-day celebration in picturesque St. Moritz, the family residence of Ambani’s, Antilia, is being decked up for the wedding of Akash Ambani and Shloka Mehta to take place this weekend.
The approaching pre-wedding, wedding and post-wedding jamboree of Akash Ambani and Shloka Mehta, is expected to have the who’s who of Bollywood industry, politics and the sports world.
Everything related to the wedding, right from the invitation which came with devotional music and pop-up elements, the decoration, the ensembles, the jewelry, the dances and most of all, the guest list is getting sweeping attention.
Akash, the son of Reliance Industries Chairman and Managing Director Mukesh Ambani will get married to Shloka Mehta, youngest daughter of diamond merchant Russell Mehta, here on March 9.
“Invites have gone to all... From (film) celebrities to sportspersons to politicians,” a source said, without naming any of the guests.
According to the invitations, a ‘Mala and Mehendi’ function at the Dome, NSCI, Worli, on the evening of March 7, will kickstart the major functions of the wedding.
The wedding on March 9 will take place at the Jio World Centre, Bandra-Kurla Complex (BKC). This will be preceded by an ‘assembly of baraat’ at around 3:30 p.m. at Trident Hotel, BKC, followed by ‘baraat swagat and high tea’ at 6:30 p.m. and ‘Hasta Melap’ at 8:01 p.m. and then dinner party.
A day before the formal wedding reception on March 11, a night of celebrations will be held at the Jio World Centre.
This wedding is likely to be studded by star-led performances, especially after celebrities from Aamir Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt to Karan Johar, John Abraham, Ayan Mukerji, Malaika Arora, Jacqueline Fernandez, Arjun Kapoor, Vidya Balan, Manish Malhotra, Disha Patani, Karisma Kapoor - turned up in full power in St. Moritz, and danced away. Aamir Khan had even joined bride-to-be Shloka for dance music on ‘Aati kya Khandala’.
Also, taking into account how a throng of ministers and political leaders, including former president Pranab Mukherjee and former United States Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, attended Mukesh’s daughter Isha’s wedding earlier this year, several key politicians may be seen at Akash and Shloka’s wedding ceremony.
After Beyonce performed at Akash’s sister Isha’s sangeet and made the world wake and take notice of the big fat Indian wedding, the buzz is beefed-up that American pop band Maroon 5 will be performing at the approaching celebrations.
