Previously, pictures from Farhan Akhtar's bachelor party also went viral on the internet, showing the actor with his close pals. One of them was holding a mask featuring Akhtar and Dandekar's faces. Akhtar himself posted photos of the bachelor celebration on Instagram.
Just a handful people will be able to attend the exclusive celebration due to the pandemic. Given the circumstances, it's clear that we won't be able to host anything on a huge scale, Farhan's father Javed Akhtar said during a recent interview.
“Both have always wanted a small wedding and are excited about their special day. Only their closest friends and family will be present at the event, which will be small and personal. It’ll be all about the food, music, laughter, and celebration." a source close to the couple reportedly said.
Farhan Akhtar was previously married to hairstylist Adhuna Bhabani. He began seeing Shibani Dandekar, a model and actor, after his divorce, and the two have never kept their relationship low key.
