Good to see them visiting Tirupati for blessings. That's the most important part, not just the glitz. Wishing them a blessed married life. Jai Balaji!

The guest list is like a who's who of Tollywood and Bollywood! Chiranjeevi, Allu Arjun, Nagarjuna... what a power-packed event. Must have been quite the sight in Hyderabad.

While the camaraderie is sweet, I sometimes feel these celebrity social media exchanges are overly curated for public consumption. A bit more genuineness would be nice. That said, Kriti's black outfit was elegant!

Heartwarming to see the industry come together like this. From an intimate Udaipur wedding to a grand Hyderabadi reception – they're doing it right. Family, friends, blessings, and celebration. Bas, life set hai!

Love how KJo always has the perfect caption! 😂 And Kriti's humble reply. Their traditional outfits were all so on point. Cream and gold is such a classic combination for the men.
