Anita wants to marry someone settled abroad, what ensues is a series of humorous events peppered with drama.

Meanwhile, as per media reports, the wedding ceremony will see a mix of guests from the film and cricket world. The names of the guest attendees, who would reportedly be an integral part of the lavish event include Jackie Shroff, Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar, M.S. Dhoni, and Virat Kohli.

Following the footsteps of the 2021 KatVic wedding, Athiya and K.L. Rahul have also imposed a no-phone policy.
