Several reports have emerged, revealing intriguing details about their imminent nuptials set for January. Here we give you a rundown of everything we know about their grand wedding.
Some time ago, in an interview with News18, Aamir Khan joyfully confirmed the wedding of his daughter, Ira Khan, to Nupur Shikhare on January 3, 2024. Adding to the confirmation, Ira herself shared glimpses of the wedding invitations on her Instagram, solidifying the date of this grand occasion as Jan 3.
Wedding venue
According to a report in News18, specific wedding festivities are scheduled to unfold at the luxurious Taj Lands End Hotel in Bandra, Mumbai. As of now, the pre-wedding celebrations are in full swing at the residences of both the bride and groom in the city. A glimpse of Aamir Khan’s house adorned with radiant lights was also revealed.
According to Pinkvilla, an intimate registered marriage is scheduled for January 3, to be followed by a reception. Subsequently, the ceremonial wedding rituals are set to take place a week later in the enchanting city of Udaipur.
Wedding rituals
The couple embraced their wedding traditions with a touch of Maharashtrian flair, paying homage to Nupur’s cultural heritage. Several months ago, they participated in the Kelvan ceremony, a traditional Marathi ritual where the families of the bride and groom invited each other for a meal, exchanging gifts as tokens of love.
In preparation for the Haldi ceremony scheduled for January 2, Ira’s mother, Reena Dutta, Kiran Rao, and other attendees were spotted adorned in traditional Nauvari sarees.
