Naga Chaitanya and Sobhita Dhulipala will tie the knot on December 4. Touted as a simple and intimate wedding, the grand ceremony will be held at the family-owned Annapurna Studios in Hyderabad. Recently, Nagarjuna, who is excited for his son's wedding shared details ahead of the big day. The tight-knit affair will reportedly have 300-400 family members, closest friends, and colleagues as guests.
Nagarjuna told Times of India that his son Naga Chaitanya didn't want a big wedding and Sobhita also preferred it to be just among family and friends. He shared, "They told me to leave the arrangements to them. They wanted to do it their way, and honestly, it was a huge relief! I said, âPlease do'. Sobhita's parents were clear about wanting to include all the rituals, and I was completely on board. I find the chants and ceremonies so soothing - they bring a sense of peace. It's going to be a lovely wedding, simple and heartfelt, just like the couple."
