Suniel Shetty and Ahan greeting the media and distributing sweets after Athiya’s wedding to KL Rahul:
Athiya Shetty and cricketer KL Rahul’s wedding ceremony has ended, father-of-the-bride Suniel Shetty confirmed to the media on Monday evening, adding, “I am now officially a father-in-law.” Suniel Shetty and son Ahan exited the wedding venue – their home in Khandala – after the ceremony to distribute sweets to the media who had been stationed there all day. “Bahut acha raha, aur abhi phere bhi ho gaye, shaadi officially ho chuki hai, aur officially father-in-law bhi ban chuka hoon (It went well and the pheras just ended. The wedding is officially done and I’m now officially a father-in-law,” the actor told the media.
The wedding ceremony, attended only by the very closest of the Shettys’ family and friends, was “beautiful,” said Suniel, wearing a festive traditional outfit. He quipped that the “father-in-law chakkar” should be dispensed with so that just the ‘father’ bit remains. “In-law ka chakkar agar hat jaye aur agar father hi rahu toh bhaut khoobsurat hai, kyunki woh part main bhaut ache se nibhaata hoon (It would be great to dispense with ‘in-law’ and have ‘father’ remain because that’s a responsibility I discharge well),” he said.
Suniel Shetty also said that a wedding reception will likely take place after the IPL season ends.
