Per recent reports, the wedding ceremony will last eight hours, following traditional Telugu Brahmin rituals.

For the wedding, Dhulipala has picked a stunning Kanjivaram silk saree with intricate gold zari work. She will also wear a white khadi saree woven in Ponduru, Andhra Pradesh for another part of the ceremonies.

Not just the wedding, the couple's attention to detail also extends to their wedding invitations, which have since gone viral on social media. The intricate designs feature symbols of Telugu culture such as temples and banana trees. Guests have also received gift baskets containing local sweets, a wooden scroll, and other mementos that add a personal touch to the occasion.

Venue importance

Annapurna Studios: A venue with deep emotional significance

The choice of Annapurna Studios as the wedding venue is deeply emotional for Chaitanya. It is situated close to a monument dedicated to his late grandfather, legendary actor Akkineni Nageswara Rao. This sentimental connection makes the celebration all the more special. The wedding will be an intimate affair with only close family and friends in attendance, keeping the focus on the couple's union and traditional rituals.

The pre-wedding festivities started in October with a traditional ceremony at Dhulipala's home. Chaitanya had earlier described the wedding planning process as "butterflies-inducing but rewarding," adding he couldn't wait to marry the love of his life. The guest list will reportedly include Telugu film industry bigwigs, Bollywood icons like Amitabh Bachchan and Aamir Khan, and top directors like SS Rajamouli.
