Exotic sangeet ceremony for Sid-Kiara 

On Sunday evening, Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani kicked off their pre-wedding celebrations at the heritage hotel, Suryagarh Palace, in Jaisalmer, Rajasthan. While Kiara landed in the desert city on Saturday morning, accompanied by designer Manish Malhotra, the groom-to-be joined them later in the evening. Karan Johar — who played matchmaker for this couple — reached the venue yesterday, along with Shahid and Mira Kapoor, Amritpal Singh Bindra, Aarti Shetty and Shabina Khan. Apparently, the pheras, initially slated for today, will now take place tomorrow. The mehndi ceremony took place on Sunday evening, while the sangeet is rescheduled to this evening. Kiara’s brother Mishaal, who is a singer, composer and music producer, has created a special track for the couple. DJ Ganesh — who earlier performed at the weddings of Ali Fazal-Richa Chadha and Kunal Rawal-Arpita Mehta, and at Karan Johar’s 50th birthday bash — has been roped in for what is being touted as a “unique” sangeet ceremony. A source tells us, “Sidharth and Kiara’s sangeet ceremony will not only be exotic, but also vastly different from other such celebrations in the past.” While the details are being kept under wraps for now, keep watching this space to know more about the big, fat Punjabi wedding in Rajasthan.
