Wedding shopping in Kolkata for Sonam Kapoor?

Just a day ago, Sonam, accompanied by mother Sunita and sister Rhea Kapoor were spotted, each looking sensational, at the Mumbai airport. The trio was headed for Kolkata. Just some bonding with her gals? Probably, with a bit of wedding shopping thrown in!
Word comes in that the gorgeous Sonam, who will reportedly wed her Delhi-based entrepreneur Anand Ahuja this March, was spotted shopping at Raj Mahtani’s high-end jewellery store in Kolkata! Sonam was supposedly also accompanied by one of her fave fashion designers, Anamika Khanna. Now Raj Mahtani happens to be the jeweller to the likes of India’s biggest business families, from the Mittals and Ambanis to the Goenkas, Birlas and Bhartias. Yes, he is a fave with the discerning layer of Bollywood as well. His couture jewellery store offers his trademark stunning jewellery paired with outfits designed by Anamika Khanna and Manish Malhotra.

Despite all denials of an impending wedding, it does look like Sonam has started off the first leg of her trousseau selection – or will they try and write this off as sourcing for a film?! Just like Anushka and Virat had consistently rubbished talks of their imminent wedding while they flew off to Italy for the pheras, Sonam too has been demolishing all reports of her approaching wedding. Calling it “fiction,” she has claimed that Veere Di Wedding will release in May and then before that she has PadMan and the Dutt biopic in June. She will also start shooting for Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s next in February-March. “Where do I have time for anything else?” she has practically wailed.

…Not that the denials are doing their job. Interest continues to grow in her reported wedding which will take place at the Umaid Bhawan Palace, Jodhpur. Apparently, wedding planners have already been sought for the wedding shenanigans. A typical 2-3 day wedding celebration at Umaid Bhawan Palace generally begins with a cocktail dinner by the poolside, the Mehendi ceremony at the Mehrangarh Fort (Umaid Bhawan Palace has the sole rights to host events at the fort), the Sangeet inside the ornate Marwar Hall, followed by the wedding-cum-reception at the famous Baradari lawns. The perfect setting for the exquisite bride that Sonam is sure to make!
