Why is Rohit Shetty not attending Ranveer-Deepika's wedding?
What's the story
Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone are all set to get married in Italy tomorrow. Notably, the festivities have already begun and the preparations for D-Day are going on in full swing. The couple will tie the knot in the presence of their immediate family members. While the guests have arrived at the venue, filmmaker Rohit Shetty has decided to miss the wedding. Here's why.
Personal invitation
Ranveer-Deepika personally invited Rohit for the wedding
It is reported that Ranveer-Deepika are quite particular about the guest lists for their Italy wedding which will be held in Villa del Balbianello. The couple has personally invited some of their close friends from the industry including Rohit Shetty, Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Shah Rukh Khan and Farah Khan. These big shots have also been invited for their Mumbai reception.
Rohit's reason
But, Rohit is busy with professional commitments
Given the bond Rohit shares with both Deepika and Ranveer, he would certainly be happy to attend their wedding. However, he will have to miss the event owing to his professional commitments. "Rohit is currently busy with the post-production work of 'Simmba' and shooting for 'Khatron Ke Khiladi'. Hence, he will not be able to attend DeepVeer's wedding in Italy," a source told PinkVilla.
