Beyoncé to sing at big, fat Indian wedding of billionaire Mukesh Ambani’s daughter
Actress Priyanka Chopra among guests flown in on 100 specially chartered flights for Isha Ambani and Anand Pirmal’s wedding on Tuesday
American singer Beyoncé will perform at the wedding of the daughter of India’s richest man, Mukesh Ambani, along with Bollywood stars, while guests have been flown in on 100 chartered flights to take part in the lavish marriage celebrations.
Isha Ambani, 27, will marry Anand Piramal, 33, in the financial capital of Mumbai on Tuesday, but the festivities began last weekend in the desert city of Udaipur, in the state of Rajasthan, with three days of song, dance and pre-wedding rituals.
Wedding guests have access to an app mapping out the activities, which include the private concert by Beyoncé.
More than 100 chartered flights brought guests to Udaipur’s sleepy airport, a source on the spot, who declined to be identified, said.
Bollywood stars, including actress Priyanka Chopra, who just married singer Nick Jonas in what was a big fat Indian wedding, is also attending.
Indian media suggested that the guest list will include former US President Bill Clinton as well as his wife and Democratic candidate in the 2016 presidential election, Hillary Clinton, who was pictured with Mukesh Ambani after her arrival in Udaipur on Saturday.
“The event will have many visitors from abroad, so customs and immigration counters have been set up at the airport and will remain active for the next five days,” the airport source said on Friday.
