Raghav Chadha, Parineeti to get engaged today at Kapurthala House in Delhi

New Delhi: Raghav and Parineeti will be getting engaged at Kapurthala House, on Mansingh Road in Lutyens's Delhi.

Kapurthala House is now the official residence of the Governor and Chief Minister of Punjab whenever they are in the city.

It was last occupied by Maharaja Paramjit Singh of Kapurthala, who sold it to a businessman named Radheshyam Makhanlal Seksaria in 1950, but it was later requisitioned by the Government of India.

The engagement ceremony will begin at 5 p.m. with the chanting of the Sukhmani Sahib from the Guru Granth Sahib, the holy book of the Sikhs, which will be followed by the 'ardas' or the holy prayer.

It is expected to be attended by Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, his Punjab counterpart, Bhagwant Mann, and Bollywood personalities as well along with close friends and relatives of the couple.

Actress Priyanka Chopra Jonas arrived in Delhi on Saturday for her sister's engagement as a phalanx of press photographers and TV camera persons flocked to the VIP area of Terminal 3 of the Indira Gandhi International Airport.

Priyanka was sporting a golf cap and dark shades, and lightly dressed in a beige sporty ensemble. She was not accompanied by her husband Nick Jonas, with whom she most recently grabbed a lot of attention on the Met Gala red carpet, or her daughter Malti Marie.

The actress had also attended Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre's three-day inauguration gala and was then seen for the promotions of the sci-fi thriller series 'Citadel' with co-star Richard Madden.

Ahead of her engagement, Parineeti's apartment in the Bandra area of Mumbai has been lit up with fairy lights. A video shared by the celebrity photographer Viral Bhayani shows Parineeti's apartment in a Bandra highrise brightly lit up for the special occasion.

While Raghav will be wearing an ivory achkan and trousers designed by his maternal uncle, Pawan Sachdev, Parineeti will be dressed in a Manish Malhotra ensemble for the ceremony.

Rumours that Raghav and Parineeti were dating picked up last month when the two were pictured together in London and then in Mumbai. The two have been spotted together several times at the Mumbai airport or coming out of restaurants.

On the work front, meanwhile, Parineeti will be seen sharing the screen with Diljit Dosanjh in the Imtiaz Ali film 'Chamkila'. The film is said to be inspired by popular Punjabi singer Amar Singh Chamkila, who was assassinated in the 1980s.

It is believed that the couple got close to each other during the film unit's long stay in Punjab for the 'Chamkila' shoot.
