The actress stunned in a mustard coloured shahrara while Kaushal stuck to casuals as they made separate entries into the airport, even as images from Jaipur showed Kaif’s family arriving in droves to the Rajasthan city where the couple are set to tie the knot later this week. Image Credit: ANI

According to a report by entertainment portal Pinkvilla, Kaif’s close friend Salman Khan may not be attending the wedding but his private bodyguard Shera has been putin charge of security at the Six Senses Fort in Sawai Madhopur. Khan’s long-time bodyguard Gurmeet Singh (or Shera, as he is popularly known), runs his own company called Tiger Security with close to 100 staff and bouncers heading down there. The news was also verified by news agency ANI. For those of you wondering why Khan may not be there on Kaif’s big day, it’s probably because he will be in Riyadh for his ‘Da-Bang’ tour.

Kaif, who has always maintained a low profile over her personal life, cut a pretty picture on Sunday night when she was spotted heading into Kaushal’s home with her brother, sister and mother in tow. It remains unclear at the time of writing whether the two families were simply bonding over dinner or whether the event was a pre-wedding function that Indian marriages are known to have in the lead up to the big day. And the big day is almost upon us. Image Credit: Insta/katrinakaif

If media reports are to be believed, the couple is set to wed at the Six Senses Fort Barwara in the Indian state of Rajasthan, with the pre-wedding events expected to kick off today. The first event is expected to be the sangeet or music function, which India Today claims will be all things ‘bling’. Both Kaif and Kaushal will reportedly perform, while their friends and family are also expected to join in the soiree. Image Credit: Insta/sixsensesfortbarwara

If a report in BollywoodLife is to be believed, Kaif’s wedding henna will be organic and worth Rs100,000 (Dh4,871), The Sojat Mehendi that comes from the Pali district in Jodhpur will be sent to the actress on her special day. Apparently Bollywood actresses Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Priyanka Chopra Jonas also used the same henna on their respective wedding days.

Pastel is the theme for their nuptials on December 9, with a glass gazebo designed as their mandap or stage where the couple will circle the sacred fire, as part of the Hindu marriage tradition. Mobile phones have been banned at the venue and bouncers are taking charge of security at this high-profile wedding, while the guest list has been capped at 120 people who are required to present their negative PCR results to attend.

Details of the what the couple plans to wear during the three-day affair remains under wraps, but bags by designers Falguni and Shane Peacock arriving at Kaif’s home last week hint at one outfit being styled by the duo. Reports claims that Kaushal has roped in Sabyasachi for his big day but again, everything remains hearsay at this point with the couple unusually mum on the subject.

Although their silence in the lead up to the wedding has been much like their love story, which is perhaps one of the worst kept secrets in Bollywood considering the stars have often been seen together at parties, weddings and outside each other’s homes over the years.

The only confirmation of sorts of their relationship came from an unlikely source earlier this year — Anil Kapoor’s son Harshvardhan Kapoor. He decided to take it upon himself to let the cat out the bag by addressing their alleged affair on TV. The younger star, who was last seen on screen in ‘AK vs AK’ in 2020, spilled the tea during an interview with Zoom TV. During a chat, Harshvardhan was asked which industry relationship rumour he believes is true or a PR move? The actor promptly replied: “Vicky and Katrina are together, that’s true,” but quickly added: “Am I going to get in trouble for it?” Image Credit: ANI Photo

Whether or not he landed in hot soup with the two stars in question, Harshvardhan’s statement only cemented what fans and industry insiders have known for a while. Now, as the big approaches (or so say sources), one can only hope the Bollywood stars continue to entertain us with their on-screen projects, which includes the Meghna Gulzar directed ‘Sam Bahadur’, a biographical drama about the first field Marshal of Indian Army Sam Manekshaw that stars Kaushal in the lead.
