Captain Vikram Batra’s brother Vishal expected to attend Sidharth Malhotra-Kiara Advani Bollywood reception – Exclusive – Times of India

Well now, let us tell you FIRST and EXCLUSIVE that there are a couple of very special guests coming to attend Sidharth and Kiara’s Bollywood bash, which is happening in Mumbai’s St Regis on February 12. We also bring you herewith that the party begins at 8:30 pm. You can bet that it will continue till the wee hours.

Vishal Batra was initially in two minds whether to attend or not, largely due to his busy schedule. However his wife, we hear, has convinced him that they should.

The invitation has been sent to the Batra family.

Now for the LATEST SCOOP. Captain Vikram Batra’s brother Vishal is likely to attend the reception, which will be attended by several Bollywood personalities. Sidharth played the late Vikram Batra in ‘Shershaah’, which released last year. Captain Batra laid down his life for India in the 1999 Kargil War.

For those who’ve come in late, we had carried an EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW with Vishal Batra and even his parents, around the time of ‘Shershaah’. We reproduce those videos below, just in case you still haven’t seen them.

A couple of days ago, we also brought you a SCOOP of where and how Sidharth and Kiara got up close and personal in ‘Shershaah’. During the making, Kiara was not required in the longest schedule of the film that happened in Kargil. Also, she had little to nothing in Palanpur. Kiara was required largely in Chandigarh.

Kiara and Sidharth fell in love in Chandigarh during the ‘Ranjha’ song and perhaps a little before that. The outdoor portions of the song were originally supposed to be shot in Chandigarh only, but there were some date and time issues owing to which it was decided that they will shoot the outdoor part later in Khandala.

The song was completed in Khandala but not before their real love story had become intense and passionate.

‘Congratulations’ and ‘A Long Happy Married Life’ to Sidharth and Kiara from ETimes. And of course, we shall bring you all the updates from the February 12 celebration.
