Nagpur: Two thousand guests at the wedding ceremony, 15000 plus at the VVIP reception and another one lakh at another reception planned for Saturday, the numbers story does not end there.
As the banquet lawns at the Vidarbha Cricket Association on the outskirts of Nagpur lit up at sun down, 17 SPG protectees attended the reception of BJP president Nitin Gadkari's son, Nikhil, who married Rutuja Pathak, daughter of Shubhangi and Purushottam Pathak, on Thursday. Not just that, over 40 invites were sent out to VIPs with black cat commandos in tow, not to mention at least over a 150 guests with Z category security.
There was also a sprinkle of industrialists with the Hinduja brothers, liquor baron Vijay Mallya and Rahul Bajaj. Though both the sparring Ambani siblings stayed away, warring cousins Raj and Uddhav Thackeray came with their better halves, carefully timing their entry so they would not inadvertently bump into each other.
Madhur Bhandarkar, Poonam Dhillon, Hema Malini and Shatrughan Sinha- perhaps the only bollywood connection. A separate buffet for the VVIPs and another one for the VIPs. On the menu, a mix of south Indian, Italian, Chinese, though the Punjabi spread dominated the buffet.
No one is putting a price tag on the event yet, but the Gadkari-Pathak wedding has sure brought together a whole lot of firsts to 'santra-nagari' or Orange City.
