The big, beautiful Indian wedding season is in full bloom. Amid latest news on lavish engagement of Mukesh Ambani’s younger son Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant, there is growing buzz around tentative wedding of Bollywood starlet Athiya Shetty and cricketer KL Rahul. Though the families of both Shetty and Rahul are tight-lipped on the D-Day, various media reports are doing the rounds.
Neither of the families has officially revealed anything about the wedding. However, the rumor is out there, both of them are going to throw a grand wedding reception post-wedding. Some reports even suggest that Suneil Shetty’s Khandala farmhouse will likely see all the celebrations.
The wedding date has not yet been confirmed by either of the families. One of the reasons could be both Athiya and Rahul’s work commitment. Amid reports of Rahul missing out on the IPL tournament, it is anticipated that Rahul will immediately leave for training after the hush-hush wedding as he will be playing the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2023 next month.
According to several media reports, it is expected that the wedding festivities will begin soon.
The families intend to keep it a strictly private affair. Among the attendees could be Salman Khan, Jacki Shroff, Akshay Kumar
