Invite or not, Shah Rukh Khan to attend Arpita Khan's wedding

Salman Khan's sister Arpita's wedding is turning out to be the wedding of the year. Salman, Sohail and Arbaaz Khan's younger sister will tie the knot with fiance Ayush Sharma at the Falaknuma Palace in Hyderabad on November 18.

The who's who of India is invited to the event, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, senior Congress leaders, Bollywood's glitterati and more.

All bets are on whether Salman's alleged bête noire Shah Rukh would be at the wedding reception. Now SRK has put all the rumours to rest by confirming that whether he gets an invite or not, he will be attending the event, according to reports.

At a recent event, the actor said Salman's sister is like his own sister and he would definitely be there for her marriage, irrespective of a wedding invite. When asked he has received an invite, Shah Rukh said he is not sure of that and it is not important.

"I will definitely go. I have known Arpita ever since she was a little baby. I have cradled her in my arms. She is like a sister to me. Infact, even an invite is not needed. They are like family and I will go," he added.

A few days ago, Aamir had also said that Salman's sister was like his own sister and he would be an event irrespective of an invitation.
