The year 2020 had started with a bang as we witnessed the grand wedding ceremonies of Armaan Jain and Anissa Malhotra. And we had then imagined how dreamy the year would be as many B-town couples were expected to tie the knot this year. But due to the pandemic, normal of big fat weddings have taken a backseat but it hasn’t lessened the spirit of the couples, who are very much in love to tie the knot. The wedding season is around the corner and we are super excited to witness the B-town unions. Kangana Ranaut’s brother, Aksht Ranaut is all set to tie the knot with his fiancée, Ritu in November and the wedding festivities have already begun in the Ranaut household.

It was in November 2019 when Aksht Ranaut had exchanged rings with his Doctor-fiancée, Ritu in an intimate ceremony. For the engagement function, while Ritu had looked resplendent in an onion pink coloured saree with a heavily embroidered blouse, Aksht had complemented her well in a cream coloured kurta pyjama paired with a pistachio coloured embroidered waistcoat. The elated sister, Kangana Ranaut had swooned us in a golden silk saree which she had paired with a pink blouse and her look was accentuated with a stunning choker neckpiece. Rangoli Chandel had posted pictures of the ceremony on her Twitter handle and had welcomed her bhabhi into the family, "Dear friends please bless them for their new beginnings."

Since the countdown for Aksht Ranaut and Ritu’s wedding has begun, the Ranaut family has kickstarted the ceremonies of the soon-to-be groom. Aksht’s pre-wedding functions began with the Badhai ceremony, which is flagging off wedding invites and as per this tradition in Himachal, it is hosted by the maternal grandparents. For Aksht’s Badhai ritual, Kangana looked gorgeous in a pear green-coloured silk saree paired up with a sleeveless blouse and a choker and matching earrings enhanced her OOTD. Kangana opted for a neutral makeup look with nude lips and smokey eyes, and her hair tied into a bun. Her sister, Rangoli Chandel picked a saree from Kangana’s closet. Rangoli grabbed our attention in a royal blue coloured handloom saree with flower motifs weaved into it and her look was accentuated with traditional gold jewellery. In the past, Kangana had worn this saree at the launch event of a handloom saree brand. Here are the pictures and video from the Badhai ceremony of Aksht:

On Raksha Bandhan 2020, Kangana Ranaut had posted a sweet note for her brother, Aksht, reminiscing her childhood with him and how fortunate she feels to have a brother like him. Kangana had written, “Dear Aksht, when we were kids, Papa bought you plastic guns and cycles for me, I played with your guns, and you rode my cycles. I love your sense of humour, and there is never a dull moment with you. I know I have chosen my enemies beyond your reach, but I notice your helplessness when they bully me. I see that silent tear fall when they character assassin me when I challenge the system, parents may scold me and create a lot of noise, but I don't miss you silently stand behind them and conflicted and still. I appreciate you read all the comments under my trailers, and I hate when you get anxious when my films don't open well. Above everything what I appreciate the most is you never show me how much you care. I love you and I am so fortunate to have a brother like you.” (Also Read: Neha Kakkar Shares Funny 'Mayka Vs Sasural' Photo With Her BF, Rohanpreet Singh [See His Reaction])
A few days ago, to mark Aksht Ranaut’s birthday, Kangana Ranaut had shared a story with her fans about how her paternal grandmother used to make her pray for a brother during their temple visits. Sharing pictures of Aksht, Kangana had tweeted, “When I was small whenever we went to temples my Dadi whispered in my ear ‘bolo mata rani mujhe ek bhaiya de do’ without even knowing the meaning of these words I squeezed my eyes and repeated ...ha ha on this day Goddess blessed us and what a wonderful blessing. Happy Birthday Aksht.” (Also Read: Madhuri Dixit Revealed She Used To Wake Up At 5:30 In The Morning To Make Breakfast For Her Husband)
