The high profile wedding of Harbhajan Singh and Geeta Basra will take place on October 29 and with the D-day inching closer important details are coming out.
The preparations are on and the venue is also almost set for the big fat Punjabi wedding which will be held in Jalandhar.
Bhajji will be wearing a sherwani designed by Designer Raghavendra Rathore, while Geeta will be seen in ghangra during all the rituals.
“Being a stickler for tradition, Harbhajan will wear an elegant sherwani designed by couturier Raghavendra Rathore,” a source was quoted as saying.
“Geeta has opted for ghaghras for all the important occasions, including the sangeet (October 27), mehendi (October 28), wedding (October 29) and reception (November 1). Her ceremonial dresses have been designed by Archana Kochhar and Babita Malkani while her wedding dress will be a stunning heavy ghaghra in red and gold”.
The sangeet ceremony will be held at Bhajji’s home in Jalandhar.
“Mehendi will be organised at Geeta’s maternal aunt’s home which is also in Jalandhar while the wedding will be solemnised at an elite wedding hall in the Punjab city. The reception will take place in Delhi. A choreographer has been hired to teach some filmi dance moves to key members of both the families. Bhajji, who has previously participated in the dance reality show Ek Khiladi Ek Haseena, is also expected to show some Bollywood moves at the sangeet.”
“The family has bought a beautiful diamond set, along with other things, for their bahu-to-be. After the wedding, there is a ritual called chauka chadhna (entering the kitchen) wherein Geeta is expected to make halwa or any other sweet and serve it to her extended family,” says our source.
Speaking about their honeymoon, the source said, “Although the destination has not been finalised yet, the choice seems to be between New Zealand and Maldives.”
