Bollywood superstars Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal are believed to have chosen Rajasthan as the venue for their wedding festivities and preparations are in full swing for arguably the biggest celebrity wedding of the year. As per our sources, a heritage property (Six Senses Fort Barwara) located in Sawai Madhopur district’s Chauth Ka Barwara (famous for the centuries old hilltop Chauth Mata Temple) will be the supposed venue for the eagerly anticipated wedding and it is located about 35 kilometres from Sawai Madhopur city. The wedding festivities will start from December 7 with the sangeet, followed by the mehendi on December 8 and the wedding on December 9. The reception will take place on December 10, add sources.

As per our sources, to ensure foolproof security, 100 bouncers from Jaipur are believed to have been hired and personnel from the Rajasthan Police will also be deployed outside the wedding venue. Most guests will land at Jaipur, which is the nearest airport, while a few are expected to take a chartered flight which might land at the helipad in Sawai Madhopur city. While guests will start pouring in from December 4, Katrina and Vicky are expected to arrive on December 6.

The couple’s close friends and family are expected to stay at the wedding venue, while many of the Bollywood bigwigs expected to attend the wedding will supposedly stay in a five-star property in Sawai Madhopur. The entire luxury hotel with 45 rooms and 4 suites is believed to have been booked for the wedding.

As per sources, the couple wanted a royal feel for everything and so, be it the décor or food at the venue, guests are in for a complete royal experience. The special suite booked for the couple, designed with contemporary Rajasthani interiors, reportedly costs Rs. 7 lakh per night and it has a swimming pool too, with its own lush green garden facing the beautiful Aravali forest range and lake. A dance troupe from Mumbai was recently seen rehearsing on Katrina’s hit Bollywood numbers at the venue. Both the families are trying their best to maintain secrecy.

A source told us, “The guests will be given a secret code for entry. They will not be allowed to carry their mobile phones after a certain point, so that no pictures or videos are leaked. Drivers ferrying the guests from Sawai Madhopur and Jaipur will be given basic phones and not smartphones, so that they don’t click pictures of the guests.”
