Salman Khan's sister Arpita Khan tied the knot with businessman Aayush Sharma on a star-studded Tuesday evening at the Taj Falaknuma hotel in Hyderabad today. Apparently, it was Arpita's dream to wed in a palace and big brother Salman Khan made sure she got just that.
Not only was the decor grand but Arpita also had a special cake with her and Aayush's initials. Apparently, the cake weighed a good 150 Kgs and took 3 whole days to get prepared.
Falaknuma is one of the most beautiful palaces of the Nizam, the ruler of erstwhile Hyderabad State. Here is a look at the decor and the lavish wedding location. The palace, which the Taj Group converted into a luxury hotel and opened four years ago, has 60 lavish rooms, decorated halls and a 101-seat dining hall, said to be the biggest in the world.
Its Durbar Hall, embellished with intricately carved wooden ceilings, parquet flooring, regal walnut wood furniture and handcrafted mirrors, had once hosted guests like King George V and Czar Nicholas II.
Located five km from Charminar, Falaknuma - or 'mirror of the sky' in Urdu - is a scorpion-shaped, all-marble palace which was once the residence of Mir Mahboob Ali Khan (1869-1911), the sixth Nizam.
It was Nawab Vaqar-ul-Umra, the Nizam's prime minister, who built the palace in 1893. Impressed by its magnificence, the Nizam bought it for himself.
