Sonam Kapoor and Anand Ahuja's wedding might have been the talk of the town but what really stole the limelight that night was not the grand bash but rather a certain choice of footwear that the groom, Anand decided to wear at his reception.
The groom paired his black bandhgala and crisp white churidar with Nike sneakers. The out-of-the-ordinary footwear fashion game naturally evoke some choice thoughts on the social media but we're not mad. The man basically revolutionized Indian reception style pairing formal wears with sneakers.

And finally shedding some light on the same, in an interview at Cannes, Sonam said:
"He wore sneakers to make fun of me. He didn't want to wear formal shoes all evening."
Sonam continued, "My brother, Harsh, told us to take some pictures with the press, and we had created an entire red carpet. I have always been part of the media all my life and wanted them to be a part of the festivities too. When he (Anand) came out, Anand didn't realise that he was wearing sneakers, because he isn't from the industry. But it was fun."
For the uninitiated, Anand is the owner of a clothing brand named Bhane and even has the first ever multi-brand sneaker boutique of India named as Veg Non Veg in Lodhi Colony at Delhi. A keen basketball player he is also a huge fan of National Basketball Association (NBA) and supports the basketball team Los Angeles Lakers. Anand is reportedly the owner of a property worth Rs.3000 crore. The business mogul also is a huge sneaker lover himself and therefore, it's no brainer that he decided to wing it. His Instagram feed is filled with sneakers, on which he is an authority. He regularly shows off his beauties on his feed – besides of course his other beauty, Sonam Kapoor!
