Will they get married next week? Will they not? While Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt's fans were busy playing the guessing game, it was all work on Bhatt's mind yesterday. The actor finished a song sequence for Karan Johar's Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani, thus marking the end of the schedule for her. Now, with Bhatt having kept her date diary free for the next fortnight, the stage is set for the lovebirds - who have been together since late 2017 - to walk down the aisle next week.
Johar's film reveals that Bhatt was juggling the shoot with wedding preparations. "On Tuesday and Wednesday, Alia had taken a few hours off for her trousseau trials. Karan planned the dates such that she could finish her portions yesterday, while co-star Ranveer Singh will be filming till late next week."
The couple zeroed in on the dates for the five-day wedding ceremony, keeping their work commitments in mind. Sources say the two will take the pheras in the wee hours of April 16 in an intimate ceremony to be held at the Kapoor bungalow in Chembur. "For their big day, the bridal couple have turned to Bollywood's go-to couturier Sabyasachi. True to his introverted nature, Ranbir wants an intimate wedding.

The wedding planners have hired a robust security team that will man the Chembur bungalow, ensuring that photographs from their D-day aren't leaked. From the caterers to the security department, every team has been requested to sign NDAs. A lavish reception is lined up on April 19 at Grand Hyatt in Santacruz for their industry friends. Alia has chosen a Manish Malhotra ensemble for the evening," says a source.
The wedding of the year will not be followed by a honeymoon at this point, as Kapoor is expected to head to Himachal Pradesh by the month-end to kick off work on Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Animal. The source adds, "Ranbir and Alia are looking at a packed few months. For the pre-wedding bachelor party, Aditya Roy Kapur and Arjun Kapoor will whisk Ranbir off to Alibaug over the weekend. Meanwhile, the bride's sister Shaheen Bhatt and bestie Akansha Ranjan Kapoor are putting together the bachelorette party."
