Organisers of Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor's wedding are leaving no stone unturned to ensure privacy at the festivities.

While everyone from the industry remained tight-lipped about the intimate wedding, now that guests have started showing up for the functions, they are being closely monitored.

The attendees at Alia's mehendi function had to cover their phone cameras with stickers provided by the security personnel at Ranbir's Vastu residence in the Bandra area of Mumbai. The security sealed the cameras of anyone attending the function with a removable red coloured sticker that would help avoid live streams, photos or videos from the venue.

The security personnel also requested the cops to intervene when things didn't seem to be under control in terms of crowd. The officers of the Mumbai Police spoke with the paparazzi stationed at the venue and issued strict instructions to them to not block the cars of the attendees for photos or bytes.

# Baraat to move from Krishna Raj Bungalow to Vastu

With Alia Bhatt's mehendi wrapping up on Wednesday, the focus has shifted to the marriage ceremony on Wednesday. The families of Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor are gearing up for the wedding ceremony of the power couple slated for Thursday, April 14.

The baraat procession of members of the Kapoor family will move from Krishna Raj bungalow, the under-construction future home of Ranbir and Alia named after the late Raj Kapoor's wife, from one part of Mumbai's tony Pali Hill neighbourhood to Ranbir's current home, Vastu, in another part of the same area. The two addresses are separated by less than a couple of kilometres.

Ranbir had moved to Vastu from the ancestral home of the Kapoors in Chembur in 2016. Vastu's interiors, incidentally, had been designed by Gauri Khan.

Taking to her Instagram, Neetu Kapoor shared a monochrome picture where she and Rishi Kapoor can be seen busy with the engagement rituals. She wrote in the caption, "Fond memories of baisakhi day as we got engaged 43 years back on 13th April 1979."

Earlier on Wednesday, Neetu was seen arriving at Ranbir's Bandra residence in Mumbai along with her daughter Riddhima Kapoor Sahni, granddaughter Samara and son-in-law Bharat Sahni for the pre-wedding festivities.

Alia and Ranbir's wedding is the most anticipated one of the year, the ceremony being an intimate affair has also piqued the interest of the nation.

# Alia's 'Dilbaro' played at Mehendi ceremony

Alia Bhatt's mehendi ceremony on Wednesday was as much a special affair as it was an intimate one. The recently concluded ceremony saw a mix of musical genres from Sufi to folk.

As per media reports, timeless Punjabi chartbuster 'Mera Laung Gavacha', the Asha Bhosle and Shamshad Begum classic 'Kajra Mohabbat Wala' and 'Dilbaro' ('Raazi' 2018), which features Alia and her mother Soni Razdan, are some of the songs that were a part of the playlist at Alia's mehendi.

The hush-hush ceremony has grabbed the headlines ever since the news about the power couple's wedding broke out. During the day, a 24 carat gold bouquet wedding gift from Surat jeweller gifted to Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt was also seen entering the venue premises.
