Ram Charan, Upasana distribute clothes at Domakonda Fort

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div class="post-content-single"> <span class="wpsr_floatbts_anchor"></span>Ram Charan and Upasana, the about to marry couple have done pooja at their traditional temple and distributed clothes to villagers in domakonda gadi, nizamabad, yesterday.<br />Megastar Chiranjeevi was spotted driving an electric car, taking the couple to their temple.<br /> <div class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 610px;"> <img align="middle" alt="Ram Charan, Upasana Wedding Pooja" height="444" src="http://www.chiranjeeviblog.com/albums/Galleries/Special/Ramcharan_Upasana_Wedding/3.jpg" width="600" /> <div class="wp-caption-text"> Ram Charan, Upasana Wedding pooja photo</div> </div> If you’re expecting the much-awaited wedding of Ram Charan and Upasna Kamineni to be yet another ‘<em>big, fat Indian wedding</em>’, you’re wrong. Contrary to the current trend, flowers are not being flown in from Bangkok or Amsterdam, expensive cutlery is not being imported from Europe nor are chandeliers being bought from China. The wedding will be a stark contrast from the typical, ostentatious affairs in Hyderabad. Instead, the couple has employed artisans from the State and other parts of the country, to put together everything from the sets and the mandap to the decorations, with the aim of generating employment for them.<br /> <strong>SOCIALLY-CONSCIOUS SHAADI</strong><br />The bride-to-be, Upasna, who is overlooking the wedding details, tells us, “We wanted to give the wedding a personal touch, so we came up with the idea of a marriage with an emphasis on various social causes. Post the wedding, we will travel to Tirumala to seek the blessing of Lord Venkateshwara, after which we’ll travel to Aragonda, the ancestral village of my grandfather, Dr Prathap C Reddy, where we plan to inaugurate a drinking water plant. We are also gifting 300 saris to the residents of Domakonda after I perform my religious rituals at the temple.”<br /> Event stylist Dinaz Noria who’s doing the decor for the couple’s wedding ceremonies, reveals, “<em>Both Charan and Upasna were keen on generating employment through their wedding rather than just opting for those lavish sets. They would pick designs that would involve the most number of artisans.</em>”<br />Speaking about the work underway at the Kamineni farm, Temple Tree, Dinaz says, “<em>An unusual art form of suspending hand-blown glass from ceilings was showcased by a team from National Institute of Design (NID), Ahmedabad here. This art form is being used in the wedding. A Nandi is being put together with lotus-shaped hand-blown glass balls made by artisans from Moradabad and Firozabad.</em>” The mandi at the wedding is crafted with beads that are hand-woven in Firozabad.<br />“<em>The block-printing artisans are working on the table linen and chairs and people from Marathwada in Maharashtra are doing the flower-weaving. Florists from various parts of the country like Coimbatore are roped in. The decor will be mostly handmade. Apart from the florists, flower weavers and the hand-blown glass artisans, everything else is being done locally in AP— from the structures to the air-conditioning.</em>”<br /> <strong>MAKING A DIFFERENCE</strong><br />The couple will seek the Lord’s blessings in Tirupati after the wedding on Saturday morning.<br />The same evening, the couple will head to Aragonda, a village near Chittor town, which is the hometown of Upasna’s grandfather, Dr Prathap C Reddy, to fulfil his dream of donating a water treatment plant for the villagers.<br />Charan and Upasna identified certain orphanages in Hyderabad and Secunderabad and they have already started making trips to them.<br />Ram Charan will be hosting a grand reception for his fans on Friday evening. Wedding with a heart<br /> <strong>SHIVA-PARVATHI THEME:</strong><br />Talking about the wedding’s traditional theme, Dinaz says, “Upasna is a big Shiv bhakt and the wedding will have a Shiva-Parvathi theme. Inspiration for the mandap is drawn from the same and will be designed by Tollywood art director, Anand Sai. He has also made a Shiva mandir near the mandap where all the prewedding pujas will be done. Work is already on in fullswing at the sprawling eightacre farm near the Himayathsagar lake for the celebrations. “<em>The wedding will have a walkway courtyard., the main mandap area and the food section will together be spread over 70,000 sq. ft. The whole look will be extremely traditional,</em>” she adds.<br /> <strong>GIFTS FOR CHARITY:</strong><br />As part of their philanthropic efforts, the duo has requested guests to donate the wedding gifts to charity. “<em>Charan and Upasna have asked guests not to bring gifts. And for those who still wanted to give them a wedding gift, they have made a plea to donate the gifts to Upasna’s charity foundation, Save A Child’s Heart Initiative (SACHi),</em>” says Dinaz.</div> </div>

Grand Preparations for Ram Charan, Upasana’s wedding

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div class="post-content-single"> <span class="wpsr_floatbts_anchor"></span><img align="left" alt="Ram Charan Upasana wedding" height="250" src="http://www.chiranjeeviblog.com/charan/main/Ramcharan_Upasana.jpg" width="300" />Ram Charan and Upasana’s wedding date is getting closer and with less than a month to go, Imported chandeliers, crystal ware from London, a food court with Balinese-themed decor, a celeb-studded guest list, foolproof swipe card invitations – that’s just a small peek into the large-scale preparations that are underway for the ‘mega’ wedding of Ram Charan and Upasana Kamineni, slated for June 14.<br /> Both the Mega and Apollo families are keen on showcasing the wedding as the “<em>marriage of the decade</em>” and no expenses are being spared for the event, which will have guests from across the globe. The list includes film stars, political bigwigs and business tycoons. There’s speculation that Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi too will be attending this wedding, apart from the Bachchans.<br /> The Apollo family, is looking at pictures of the British Royal Wedding for ideas. “<em>The centrally air-conditioned venue will be done up mostly in white, adorned with crystal decor imported from UK and chandeliers from China. While the mandap will be done up in traditional style, the food courts will have the Balinese look</em>,” reveals a source.<br /> Art director Anand Sai, a close associate of Chiranjeevi, is designing the wedding venue at Upasana’s farmhouse and also the venue for the reception that Chiru is hosting on the night of the wedding day.<br /> And this time around, the security for the wedding and other ceremonies is going to be foolproof and outsiders will not even be able to get a glimpse of the goings on inside. “<em>Both families are taking utmost care when inviting guests. There were a few security lapses at the time of the engagement. Uninvited guests, who managed to procure a swipe card, were able to find their way in, but with this new hi-tech swipe card, impersonators using other people’s invitations will get detected,</em>” reveals the source, forewarning the Sneaking Toms.</div> </div>
