Saif-Kareena to fly back from UK for Sonam’s wedding today
Actors and spouses Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan just went to London, UK, for a quick threeday trip. It was speculated that Kareena might not be back in Mumbai in time for fellow actor Sonam Kapoor’s May 8 wedding to Delhi-based businessman Anand Ahuja, but we’ve learnt that Saif and Kareena will be there.
A source reveals, “They went to London to attend Saif’s school housemaster’s memorial service. Saif studied in Winchester College since the age of 12 and he’s in touch with a lot of his classmates. The school has a history with the Pataudis, as Saif’s father, Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, as well as his grandfather went to school there.”
The source adds, “On hearing that his housemaster had passed away, Saif made a quick trip to London to attend his memorial service.”
Saif says, “We’ve come here to attend the memorial service of my old school housemaster from Winchester College. There is a beautiful church service and a dinner with old school friends that has been organised here.”
The source further adds, “Kareena was looking forward to attending Sonam’s wedding ceremonies, but she had to miss the mehendi and sangeet, as they left on Friday night for London. However, they both will be back in the city just in time to attend Sonam and Anand’s wedding today. They didn’t take [their son] Taimur along this time, because it was a short trip.”
Actor Sonam Kapoor and entrepreneur Anand Ahuja are set to tie the knot today, and the couple kicked off their shaadi revelry with a cosy celebration at home, in Mumbai. The Kapoor clan, including cousins Janhvi , Khushi, Anshula and Arjun Kapoor were seen in attendance, apart from many of the couple’s close friends. The party also saw designer Masaba Gupta, actor Rani Mukerji and filmmaker Karan Johar, with guests dressed mostly in white, creams and pastels. Sonam, too, chose an Anuradha Vakil sharara in pastels. #everydayphenomenal seems to be the hashtag for the wedding, with Instagram full of glimpses from the celebrations.
