Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], March 5 : Veteran actor Amitabh Bachchan arrived with wife Jaya Bachchan at the wedding of cricketer Arjun Tendulkar and businesswoman Saaniya Chandhok in Mumbai on Thursday, as prominent personalities from Bollywood, cricket and politics gathered for the high-profile ceremony.

Actors Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan were also among the prominent attendees. The duo posed for photographers outside the venue, with Aishwarya wearing a light blue Anarkali featuring silver detailing and Abhishek opting for a black kurta paired with white trousers.
Several film industry personalities were spotted arriving earlier in the day. Filmmaker Vidhu Vinod Chopra attended the ceremony with his family, while filmmaker Ashutosh Gowariker was also seen entering the venue. Musicians Shankar Mahadevan, Siddharth Mahadevan and Shivam Mahadevan were present as well.
Actor-director Farhan Akhtar made a solo appearance and briefly stopped to pose for photographers before heading inside.
The wedding follows a pre-wedding ceremony held on March 3 that saw several cricketing figures, including Zaheer Khan, Harbhajan Singh and Ravi Shastri.
Ahead of the celebrations, Sachin Tendulkar also extended invitations to key political leaders including President Droupadi Murmu, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Rahul Gandhi.
