Yup he¡¯s the same guy who had those ostentatious wedding cards made!

The four-day affair began on Nov 12 and will conclude on Nov 16. So how has the money been spent? In the Palace Grounds at Bengaluru now stands a recreation of the Vijayanagara empire. Fitting, since he considers himself a reincarnation of King Krishnadevaraya. Anyway, also being recreated are the famous Lotus Mahal, Vijaya Vittala temple and Mahanavami Dibba. A hundred labourers and Bollywood art directors were utilised for the effort.

Also, Shah Rukh Khan and Prabhu Deva are expected to perform at the wedding, and you know how much these Bollywood types charge. Then there¡¯s the expense of 1,500 rooms for guests and you know how expensive 5 star hotels are these days.

Here¡¯s what the spectacle is looking like.
