Press Trust of India


Amid pomp and show, Vanisha Mittal, daughter of Non-Resident Indian Steel tycoon LN Mittal, tied the nuptial knot with Amit Bhatia, a London-based financier, in the beautiful setting of Vaux les Vicomte, a 17th century Chateau, an hour's drive from Paris.

The six-day long wedding extravaganza, costing millions of pounds, concluded on Wednesday afternoon at the Grand Intercontinental in Paris attended by over 1000 guests including leading Indian industrialists and Bollywood stars.

The VIP guests included the Hinduja brothers Srichand, Gopichand and Ashok, the two sons of NRI industrialist Lord Swaraj Paul, Ambar and Aakash, Reliance chief Anil Ambani and his wife Tina, Vijay Mallya, Anand and Anuradha Mahindra, Parmeshwar Godrej, Union Civil Aviation Minister Praful Patel, Sunil Mittal, Hotelier Lalit Suri, property developer KP Singh, Javed Akhtar and Shabana Azmi, renowned painter MF Hussain, Congress leader Murli Deora and London socialite Ramola Bachchan.

Bollywood stars Aishwarya Rai and Akshay Kumar performed at the wedding ceremony on Tuesday night while Shah Rukh Khan, Saif Ali Khan, Juhi Chawla, Rani Mukherjee took the centre stage earlier.

The sangeet at Catherine de Medici's Jardin des Tuilleries in Paris had performances by Mittal's son, Aditya, and daughter in law, Megha, enacting the tale of how 23-year-old Vanisha fell in love with 25-year-old Delhi-born Amit Bhatia.

Vanisha, a postgraduate from the School of Oriental and African Studies in London, who recently took up a post at her father's LNM Group, is believed to have met Bhatia, a Cornell graduate, while working at Credit Suisse at Canary Wharf in Paris.
