Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh's wedding in accordance with South India rituals concluded on Wednesday morning in Italy's Lake Como. While no photos have yet been shared by the couple on social media, a video tweeted by news agency ANI offers visuals from Deepika and Ranveer's wedding venue Villa del Balbianello, which is placed on the tip of a peninsula on Lake Como. In the video, both ladkiwale and ladkewale can be seen escorting the newly-married couple down a flight of stairs leading to the boats stationed at the private harbour. While the wedding guests, including friends and family members, can mostly be seen wearing white and gold, one figure who stands out appears to be Deepika, who can be seen dressed in an orange and golden hued saree.
Close at her heels appeared to be the groom, who was also in white. Both Deepika and Ranveer appeared to hide behind huge umbrellas as they exited Villa del Balbianello. Watch the full video here:
Meanwhile, fan clubs have curated some glimpses from inside the much talked about Deepika-Ranveer wedding.
Deepika and Ranveer have strictly maintained a no-photo policy for their wedding - they reportedly requested their wedding guests, some 45 in number, to refrain from posting pictures of the ceremony on social media. The close-knit wedding is so much of a private affair that singer Harshdeep Kaur, who is performing at the wedding functions, had to take down her tweet today. It is reported that Deepika and Ranveer want to release the first pictures of their wedding on their own social media accounts. The wait for Deepika and Ranveer's wedding pictures has been best described by Smriti Irani with this post:
