Designer duo Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla shared some priceless, rare and unseen pictures from megastar Amitabh Bachchan's daughter Shweta Bachchan's wedding. The pictures are a true definition of nostalgia, and these pictures are proof enough that Navya Naveli Nanda is a mirror image of her mother, Shweta Bachchan Nanda. Shweta tied the knot to a Delhi-based businessman Nikhil Nanda in 1997, and how the family broke conventional stereotypes by opting for a white outfit for the wedding.
