MUMBAI: The rumoured wedding of Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal has been gained attention despite a family member of the actor denying the whole affair even as media reports the Bollywood couple has set a date for December.
Indian media has reported the wedding will take place between December 7-9 and even published a guest list. However, a cousin of Kaushal gave an interview to an Indian daily denying the whole story. Upasana Vohra quashed rumours of the wedding in an interview, saying it was all a media generated rumour.
“Reports about preparations to the wedding dates are all rumours being spread in the media. The marriage is not taking place. If such a thing happens, they will announce it. In Bollywood, such rumours are often circulated and later it turns out that it was something else.”
“They are just temporary rumours. I had a talk with my brother recently. There is nothing like that. I don’t want to comment on this issue anymore, but the marriage is not taking place at the moment,” said Vohra.
Despite the denial, an Indian entertainment has quoted a source close to the actress saying the couple is definitely looking to get married on December 9 in Ranthambore, Rajasthan with the Six Senses Fort Barwara being named as the property booked for the nuptials.
The story about the wedding venue has also been posted by fashion account, who quoted its source as an Instagram user who revealed via DM: “Katrina and Vicky are getting married at the Six Senses Fort Barwara outside Ranthambore next month. Our local safari guide told us. They’ve all been hired.”
The media outlet went even further revealing details from its source who said there was going to be an evening Hindu wedding with family members and close ones in attendance. The entertainment portal also reported that Kaif and Kaushal’s teams are busy booking the air tickets and managing accommodation for all the guests that will arrive for their big day.
It quoted a supposed wedding guest who revealed further details of the upcoming ceremonies. “Katrina and Vicky’s wedding is expected to take place on December 9 while the engagement, mehndi [henna] and sangeet [music] ceremonies will take place on the 7th and 8th of December,” the source revealed, adding that the wedding will be a blend of the traditional and modern with the couple planning everything themselves.
It added that filmmaker Shashank Khaitan, who directed Vicky in the recently-concluded ‘Govinda Mera Naam’ is attending the wedding as part of the actor’s baraatis [groom’s party]. Karan Johar, a close friend of the couple will also be there while directors Farah Khan and Zoya Akhtar are expected to attend as part of Katrina’s entourage.
Rumours mills have been in overdrive since late October when it was reported the couple had a informal engagement on Diwali. It was reportedly an intimate affair with only close family members by the couple’s side.
In October, Kaushal had also fuelled the speculation by saying he would “get engaged soon enough”. Refuting rumours of an engagement ceremony has taken place, he had said: “The news was circulated by your friends. I’ll get engaged soon enough, when the time is right.”
The two actors have been rumoured to be dating for quite a while now, and are often spotted visiting each other. In terms of their work, Kaushal was last seen in ‘Udham Singh’, while Kaif was in ‘Sooryavanshi’. The actress also made a quick visit to Dubai to attend a private event at Expo 2020.
