New Delhi: It is a celebratory time for Arun Jaitley, the Minister for Finance, Corporate Affairs, Information & Broadcasting. His daughter Sonali is getting married today to businessman-lawyer Jaish Bakshi in the national capital. However, before the big day could make the bride-to-be happy, superstar Shah Rukh Khan made her skip a heartbeat at her sangeet ceremony on Saturday.
The actor who has his way with women surprised Sonali at the ceremony which took place at Jaitley's residence. According to a report published in a leading daily, SRK also swung her to a romantic ballroom song.
“The soulful track was followed up by Mika Singh's Punjabi tadka. SRK continued to dance with the bride, Mr and Mrs Jaitley joined in and so did the other guests, including the B-town brigade Suniel Shetty, Poonam Dhillon and Dolly Ki Doli director Abhishek Dogra,” revealed a guest to the daily.
Not only this, the king of romance SRK also gave love lessons to the soon to be wed couple. He was spotted sharing a jovial time with cricketer Gautam Gambhir, who is the captain of his IPL team Kolkatta Knight Riders.
While leaving the party, SRK was mobbed by the 5000 plus guests. He even tripped and hurt his knee.
Among other guests were Maestro singer-composer Pandit Shivkumar Sharma, Rajya Sabbha member Amar Singh, Minister of State, Information and Broadcasting, Rajyavardhan Rathore, lyricists Javed Akhtar and Prasoon Joshi, singers Shankar Mahadevan, Hariharan, Anup Jalota and Kavitha Krishnamurthy.
If media reports are to be believed, the wedding will be graced by the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, superstar Salman Khan and the Indian cricket team.
Now that the cricket team has won the test series, they have more reasons to be jubilant. The South African team is also been invited at the wedding today. The reception is slated for 9th December.
