In the season for ostentatious Bollywood weddings the only talk around showbiz right now is who is spending how much on what.
It is estimated that the Shilpa Shetty Raj Kundra affair will reportedly cost the Kundra something to the tune of Rs 5 crore, with the bride’s jewellery alone being valued at Rs 3 crore.
But the mother of all B-town weddings this season is the wedding of Pankti Mehta, the marketing head of Ashtavinayak Cine Vision, where the budget will reportedly surpass the Kundra. Soft-spoken Pankti is the sister of filmmaker Dhillin Mehta who produced Jab We Met and Blue, and she is marrying a US citizen, Jimeet Sanghavi.
A-league actors — Akshay Kumar, Ajay Devgan, Saif Ali Khan, Sanjay Dutt and a dozen others are expected to attend the wedding reception on December 5, at one of Mumbai’s five-star venues. The wedding card itself is as thick as a photo album and has nine attachments inviting film folk to the various functions.
There is a Pritam night, a Falguni Pathak night, a qawaali night, a sangeet affair and besides regular functions like mehndi and shaadi, there is also a cricket match between the Mehta’s and the Sanghavi. Reports say that this is the most opulent Bollywood Marriages in recent times and a top star says, “A film can be financed with the wedding budget.’’ But for the Mehta’s, this is something they always wanted for the apple of their eye.
