The guest count was kept limited to only 300 people due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Their wedding festivities of Bakhtawar started on January 24 at Bilawal House with a Mehfil-e-Milad.
Earlier, in a simple and splendid engagement ceremony, the couple exchanged rings amid celebratory hollers and claps from the guests, who included some senior leaders of PPP, businessmen, real estate tycoons, famous lawyers, a few legislators and close relatives at Bilawal House Karachi in November 2020.
Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto, who was in self-isolation after contracting coronavirus at that time, had joined the engagement event through a video link.
Born on January 25, 1990, to Benazir and Zardari, Bakhtawar was the first child born to a sitting female prime minister. Bakhtawar, who holds a Masters Honors in English from the University of Edinburgh, is an education enthusiast and actively works for Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto Institute of Science and Technology (SZABIST).
Her efforts played a significant role in the establishment of the Stem Cell Research Laboratory at its Karachi campus. Being a staunch believer in living life to the fullest, she is an avid adventurist who’s fond of paragliding, archery and other adventure sports.
Bakhtawar also established her own non-governmental organization known as ‘Save the Flood and Disaster Victims Organization’ for early recovery response to those who were impacted by natural calamities in Pakistan.
