The grand wedding reception of Bollywood actor Anushka Sharma and cricketer Virat Kohli was a star-studded affair in Mumbai on Tuesday night with Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Rekha, Madhuri Dixit, Ranbir Kapoor, Sachin Tendulkar, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, among others, joining the celebrations.
Actor Anushka Sharma and cricketer Virat Kohli, who were married in a private ceremony on December 11 in Italy, held their second wedding reception at St Regis in Mumbai on Tuesday.
Anushka’s Ae Dil Hai Mushkil co-star Ranbir was more than happy to grace the bash. He also made the signature ‘one-sided love’ pose from their film.
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was seen along with husband Abhishek, while her father-in-law Amitabh Bachchan was spotted with daughter Shweta.
Big B has a sweet little way of greeting the bride. He bowed his head to her with folded hands while she reciprocated with a big smile.

Shah Rukh later joined the couple on the dance floor with his cool moves.
Music maestro AR Rahman also attended the reception.
Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap, who worked with Anushka on Bombay Velvet, also marked his attendance.
