Sonam Kapoor and Anand Ahuja will tie the knot on May 8
Bollywood actress Sonam Kapoor will be tying the knot with her long-term beau Anand Ahuja on May 8. Both the families released an official statement confirming speculations regarding the diva's marriage.
The official statement which was released last evening says: ''The Kapoor and Ahuja families, take great joy and pride, in announcing the marriage of Sonam and Anand. The wedding will take place on the 8th of May in Mumbai. Since it is an intimate affair, we request you to respect the family's need for privacy. Thank you for all your blessings and love, as we celebrate this special moment in our lives.''
After giving you a glimpse of the couple's wedding invites, here is all you need to know about Sonam's man, his family and Rs. 173 crore bungalow. Anand is the grandson of Harish Ahuja, owner of Shahi Exports, which is claimed to be India's largest garment export house. Anand's grandfather bought a bungalow worth Rs 173 crore on Prithviraj Road in 2015. The 3170-yard plot was sold to Ahuja by Om Arora, the owner of Variety Book Depot in Connaught Place.
The plot was not considered lucrative by dealers because of its shape and was on the market for a couple of years before Ahuja bought it in 2015. It is a 'sher mukhi' bungalow with wider front and tapers towards the back. The bungalow is situated in the posh area of Delhi, Lutyens Bungalow Zone.
Meanwhile, Anand who is currently Managing Director of Shahi Exports is also the founder of Bhane and owner of multi-brand sneaker company called Veg Non Veg. After completing schooling from American Embassy School in Delhi and graduating in Economics and International Affairs from the University of Pennsylvania, he pursued MBA from renowned Business school Wharton.
Sonam and Anand met each other via a mutual friend Prerna. Anand proposed Sonam in 2014 and reportedly the actress took months to accept his proposal.
