Shibani took to Instagram on Saturday morning and shared a glimpse of her heels for the wedding day, with the caption, “let’s do this.”
Hours before tying the knot, Shibani shared this photo.
Farhan and Shibani hosted a mehendi and sangeet ceremony in Mumbai on Thursday. Videos from the ceremony showed the bride’s friends and family members dancing to ‘Mehendi Laga Ke Rakhna’. Anushka Dandekar, Rhea Chakraborty were spotted at the ceremony as they posed for the cameras.
Earlier, Farhan’s father and veteran writer Javed Akhtar had confirmed the wedding in an interview with ETimes. The lyric-writer said that the wedding would be a simple affair due to the pandemic. Javed also shared that the family gets along really well with Shibani.
Farhan and Shibani posed as a couple for the first time in 2018 when they attended Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh’s reception in Mumbai. Since then, the couple has been quite open about their love for each other as they often share photos with each other on Instagram. In 2021, Shibani got a tattoo of Farhan’s name on her neck on her birthday.
