Aamir Khan and Kiran Rao ensured that they make nephew Imran Khan and Avantika Malik's wedding reception a grand affair.
And the lovely couple didn't fall short on any grounds. The event that was held at Taj Land's End in Bandra, was attended by the who's who of Mumbai. It saw the coming of many legendary actors, happy couples, and once-upon-a-time couples who had simply moved on.
Aamir Khan looked slick in a black suit. He sported a beard and earrings, and looked suave. His wife Kiran Rao was dressed in a a golden-beige combination. Aamir was quick to say that he found Kiran beautiful in everything that she wore and that evening was no exception. The guests of honour, Imran Khan and Avantika Malik looked a very happy couple. Groom Imran was dressed in a black achkan while the pretty bride, Avantika wore a beige and bright pink lehenga.
Aamir played host to the hilt. He spent much time making sure that legendary actors - Dev Anand, Vinod Khanna, Prem Chopra - who attended the event felt comfortable and were tended to luxuriously. Shammi Kapoor's attendance there was a big surprise. Shammi has been in and out of hospitals in the recent past and is known to be ailing. However, with him he brought in much energy at the wedding reception of Imran and Avantika.
Rishi and Randhir Kapoor also made it to the grand event. Kareena Kapoor who entered with Karan Johar and Preity Zinta, couldn't help but pose with dad Randhir for a pic for posterity. Ranbir Kapoor, who is fast friends with Ranbir and Avantika, was dressed (co-incidentally) similarly to the way Imran was! But Avantika and Katrina weren't confused. Each one of them knew exactly which arm they had to hold on to.
No, Katrina Kaif and Imran Khan didn't walk in together, neither were they spotted arm-in-arm, but yes they bonded at the do that also saw the presence of Deepika Padukone and Siddharth Mallya. Anushka Sharma and Ranvir Singh - of Band Baaja Baaraat fame - were not to miss this reception either.
The event was graced even by politicians, business men, and sport personalities. Sachin Tendulkar walked in with wife Anjali. Mukesh and Nita Ambani made a grand entry. Raj Thackeray was spotted with his wife; Praful Patel and Ajay Bijli were also there to bless the couple.
Salman Khan came in with brother Sohail Khan. Arbaaz Khan, too, was present at the function. Shah Rukh entered with wife Gauri who looked lovely in an emerald green sari, Hrithik Roshan and wife Suzanne were also there to wish the couple along with Rakesh and Pinky Roshan. Jeetendra and Shobha Kapoor walked in with son Tusshar. Newly launched Sonakshi Sinha posed happily with dad Shatrughan Sinha, while brother Kush patiently waited his turn.
Juhi Chawla was warmly welcomed at the event. Madhuri Dixit looked gorgeous as ever. Rani Mukerji returned to her traditional avatar, and was quite an eye-catcher in her bright yellow sari, Vidya Balan stuck to her traditional 'Anarkali' style outfit. Priyanka Chopra looked lovely in white; Gracy Singh seemed re-vamped. Dressed traditionally, she reminded us of the Lagaan chori that she once played to the hilt.
Govinda, Genelia D'Souza, Gul Panag, Shyam Benagal, Anu Malik, Bappi Lahiri, Imtiaz Ali, Ashutosh Gowarikar were among various other stars who shone brightly on this particular night that ended rather late - in the wee hours of the morning!
