US President Donald Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr, arrived in Udaipur on Friday night to attend the star-studded wedding of American billionaire businessman Rama Raju Mantena’s daughter Netra Mantena with entrepreneur Vamsi Gadiraju.
According to sources, Trump Jr arrived in Gujarat’s Jamnagar earlier this week on a personal visit. While there, he visited the Reliance Foundation-run wildlife rehabilitation and rescue centre, Vantara, the sources said. On Friday night, he travelled from Vantara to Udaipur.
Udaipur SP Yogesh Goyal told The Indian Express that arrangements have been made in the city for the arrival of VIP guests. “We have made sufficient arrangements for VIP guests, who will be arriving in the city. Donald Trump Jr will be the most prominent guest. Traffic diversions have been put in place and extra force has been called in,” the SP said.
Sources said Trump Jr is expected to return to Gujarat after the wedding and may meet Adani Group chairman Gautam Adani.
While in Udaipur, the US President’s son will attend the wedding ceremonies that are scheduled to take place between November 21 and 24. Various celebrities from India and abroad are expected to take part in the wedding.
To attend the haldi ceremony on Friday night, Bollywood actors Madhuri Dixit, Jacqueline Fernandez, and Kriti Sanon, as well as singer Sofia Choudhary, arrived at Dabok Airport in the afternoon. Actors Hrithik Roshan, Ranbir Kapoor, and Shahid Kapoor are also likely to be among the guests, according to reports.
The wedding festivities will take place at several locations in Udaipur, including the Jagmandir Island Palace, situated in the middle of Lake Pichola, in Udaipur.
