Bollywood star Riteish, Genelia get wedding today

The first big fat Bollywood wedding of the year is all set to take place today. Actor Riteish Deshmukh will tie the knot with his long time girlfriend actress Genelia D’Souza in a traditional Marathi ceremony.

All roads in Mumbai will lead to a suburban 5 star hotel where the wedding is scheduled to take place. From the entire Bollywood fraternity to leading industrialists to major politicians, all are expected to attend the wedding.

The celebrations started on Tuesday with a grand Sangeet ceremony which was attended by the entire film industry and was hosted by filmmaker Karan Johar.

The party continued till the wee hours of the morning. On Wednesday, an impromptu party was thrown at Genelia’s residence which later shifted to the couple’s new flat in Juhu.

On Thursday, the pre wedding rituals took place at both the bride and the groom’s residence. While Riteish had his haldi ceremony, Genelia, who is a Christian, had the traditional rose ceremony where close friends of the bride pour coconut milk on her a day before the wedding.

Later in the evening, Genelia was spotted visiting a church in her friends. Dressed in jeans, shirt and black jacket, Genelia looked happy and glowing.

Speaking to DNA, a source said, “Yesterday Riteish had the haldi ceremony, after which he isn’t going to be allowed to step out of the house until the wedding today. But his friends kept him busy all day through and he was rather excited too.”

The excited groom tweeted on Thursday evening, “Saw the Last sunset as a Bachelor(sic)”.

The bride is reportedly going to wear a blue and gold lehenga today and the wedding will take place in the morning. Post wedding, a lavish lunch has been organized for the guests. The reception will take place tomorrow.
