Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh: From the wedding in Italy to the final reception in Mumbai

The couple first kicked off the pre-wedding festivities with a Nandi puja, which was held at Deepika’s hometown in Bengaluru. During the same time, Ranveer’s haldi ceremony was taking place in Mumbai.

The mehendi and sangeet ceremony took place in Italy. According to reports, Ranveer and Deepika performed at the sangeet. In fact, if reports are to believed, Ranveer even made an emotional speech and asked for Deepika’s hand in front of everyone, leaving the actor teary-eyed. Singer Harshdeep Kaur performed at the sangeet ceremony.

The mehendi and sangeet ceremony was followed by a big, fat wedding. The weddings took place amidst high security, where the guests were not allowed to take photographs. The whole thing was a close-knit affair, with only close friends and family in attendance. The first wedding took place on November 14 and followed the Konkani tradition. The best South Indian chefs were flown from India for the function and the food was served in banana leaves, according to reports.

The second wedding was held on November 15 and followed the North Indian tradition. The wedding photos were not revealed for quite a while. And the first proper photo from the wedding was shared by both Deepika and Ranveer on their social media handles. With the wedding done, the couple flew back to India and hosted their first wedding reception in Bengaluru wherein some of the biggest sports personalities marked their presence. From Abhinav Bindra, PV Sindhu to Venkatesh Prasad, the venue was packed with every famous name one could think of from the field of sports.
