RANBIRALIA SHAADI SAGA
Recce for the venue done, families still tight-lipped
Are they? Are they not? There is no denying that the rumoured wedding of actor-couple Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt is the talk of the town! Though their near and dear ones remain in denial mode and tightlipped, the dates, venue, guest list, bachelor party and just about everything related to them are making the rounds.
According to reports, the wedding festivities are happening between April 13 and 18. The venue, it seems, is Vastu, which is Kapoor’s Bandra home. And according to our sources, a team of bouncers from Mumbai has done the recce for the security arrangements too.
More reports suggest that the guest list has been finalised not just for the wedding but Kapoor’s bachelor party as well, with filmmaker Ayan Mukerji and actor Aditya Roy Kapur as confirmed attendees.
The rumoured groom-to-be is apparently inviting his make up artists, assistants and spot boys to the wedding.
Moreover, the sources also hinted at how the duo had sped up and wrapped up the shoot for their magnum opus, Brahmastra, in Varanasi (Uttar Pradesh), only because they wanted to oversee all the wedding prep personally.
“I have no clue about any such rumours,” is what Bhatt’s best friend, Akansha Ranjan, has to say about all these developments. And as for Kapoor’s uncle, Randhir, he tells us, “I have been unwell and was in Pune. If there was a wedding happening in the house, and that too, so soon, I’d have definitely got to know.”
Soni Razdan, Bhatt’s mother, answered our call, and when we told her where we were calling from, she politely replied, “I am putting down the call.”
“Ji haan huzoor main karta hu: badhai, prachar, mangalachar. Kya kar loge?” is how actor Amitabh Bachchan hit back at trolls who questioned him on Twitter for promoting his son, actor Abhishek Bachchan’s film.
