Finally, star couple Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai will tie the knot on April 20 in Mumbai. This is going to be a family affair with the guests being very limited, say 150, in all. The marriage ceremony will begin on April 18th with the music night at Bachchans' residence at Jalsa to be followed by a baarat (marriage procession) of his son Abhishek led by Big B to Rais' house at Bandra. Excepting family members and very close friends, no Bollywood bigwig like Shah Rukh Khan and Hrithik Roshan, have been invited for the wedding. There will be no honeymoon for the couple as Amitabh Bachchan's mother and Abhishek's grandmother, Teji Bachchan is not well, according to sources close to family.
But there may be a big reception for the film industry and others left out. Interestingly, the rights for covering the mega wedding have reportedly been sold to an international media house, so the other media may be barred from the wide coverage of the event. The news of the Ash-Abhishek romance started making rounds last year when the couple was shooting for 'Umrao Jaan' and 'Guru' though both got engaged on January 14 this year after they returned from the premiere of their film 'Guru' in Toronto and New York. Since then Aish and Abhi have been frequently appearing in public together first at Mirzapur in UP to celebrate Amitabh Bachchan's bosom pal, Amar Singh's birthday on January 28, and later at an event by the French Embassy to honor Amitabh with the highest civilian award of the French Government
