Most Expensive Indian Celebrity Weddings & Their Jaw-Dropping Budgets

Priyanka Chopra & Nick Jonas – ₹100 Crore

Two wedding ceremonies (Hindu and Christian) in different settings, multiple receptions, and even a cake that was taller than the average Delhi dweller.Takeaway: If grand palaces are your thing but you'd rather stay closer to home, Ambria's Manaktala Farms in Gurugram has the perfect combination of royalty and modern luxury.
Virat Kohli & Anushka Sharma – ₹100 Crore

South Delhi’s top wedding venues, like The Oberoi or Andaz Delhi, can bring that dreamy aesthetic to life.
Katrina Kaif & Vicky Kaushal – ₹80 Crore
