On Monday night, the couple hosted a grand pre-wedding reception for family members, close friends and members of the film fraternity at Allu Studios in Hyderabad.

The reception witnessed the presence of several prominent personalities from the Telugu film industry who arrived to extend their blessings to the couple.

A few days ago, Allu Sirish's pelli koduku ceremony was held in an Intimate traditional gathering at the family residence in Hyderabad. A significant ritual on the groom's side in Telugu weddings, the ceremony began with the sacred mangala snanam, where the groom was ceremonially bathed and smeared with turmeric and sandalwood paste - symbolising purification, blessings, and the transition into married life.

Following the ritual bath, the celebrations continued with a heartfelt gathering of close family and friends, particularly women from the extended family circle, who blessed the groom, offered gifts, and conveyed their good wishes ahead of the wedding.

Allu Sirish and Nayanika will tie the knot on March 6. (ANI)
