Shubanka Sridhar , 28 Aug 2019
Weddings are by default a huge deal and one of the most important days in anyone’s life. And when it comes to Indian weddings, we are all acquainted with the term – ‘Big Fat Indian Wedding’. Especially when it is the rich getting hitched, they make sure to leave no stone unturned in making it an opulent affair to remember. From super expensive venues to elaborate themed decor and intricately curated experiences, these shaadis are what dreams are made of. Now, that’s not without having a starry guest list in attendance, amirite? From Shah Rukh Khan and Ranveer Singh to Jennifer Lopez and Beyonce, these nuptials have seen some of the most famous desi and International faces participating in the celebrations. I mean, imagine superstar Salman Khan dancing in the background while a bunch of other people take center stage – yes, that happened! Straight out of the Dharma movies.
Well, how can we not start this list with the Ambanis? The richest family in India, they hosted not one but two weddings in a short span of a few months last year, making it THE weddings everyone in India were talking about. Isha Ambani and Anand Piramal‘s pre-wedding bash in Udaipur saw almost the entirety of Bollywood in attendance. From Aishwarya Rai-Abhishek Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan‘s performances to Salman Khan turning background dancer and shaking a leg with the Ambani family, this wedding saw that and much more. By much more, I mean Beyonce. Like, they just arranged for a private Queen B concert, you guys. If that wasn’t enough to make us feel terrible for not being friends with the Ambani’s, they hosted a pre-wedding bash in Switzerland for son Akash Ambani and Shloka Mehta‘s wedding with private concerts by Coldplay and The Chainsmokers! By now, private concerts are passè for the Ambanis.

We all wish to be swept off our feet with his super romantic gestures. Yes, we are talking about the one and only Shah Rukh Khan!

Shah Rukh was at Azhar Morani‘s (Son of the famous film producer and events organiser, Karim Morani) sangeet and grooved to his songs like Gerua with the bride. Shah Rukh even taught Azhar a few charms for him to woo his lady love and she couldn’t have been more excited! Who wouldn’t be, it’s Shah Rukh Khan reading out the lines from his poem in Jab Tak Hai Jaan to you in a way only he can. *Ahh feels*

The wedding of Millionaire Atul Gupta’s sons – Suryakant and Shashank – in Auli, in India, saw some larger than life wedding mandaps and stages, and some huge celebrities who came down to add the glam to the event. What wedding is complete without music and dance, and if you can get both from the best of the lot in the industry, it sure is one grand wedding, amirite? The 200-crore wedding in had Katrina Kaif perform to her hot numbers while Badshah got the crowd grooving with his catchy songs. While we normally get our party started with their songs, this wedding flew them down live to perform for them, complete with background dancers and all that jazz.

Some ‘24K Magic‘ in the air during my wedding? Well ‘That’s What I Like‘ (sorry for the Bruno Mars song puns, can’t not)!

7. The Samba Wedding
The wedding of the Indonesian Media Mogul Raam Punjabi‘s son, Amrit Punjabi with Sanjana Hiranandani took place in a fancy resort in Bali. Imagine, your wedding seeming like the most lavish holiday anyone could take. A holiday with a great dose of entertainment, that too.
