Bangalore: Another Tulu girl is getting married to a Hindi film hero. On Oct 29, Priyanka Alva, daughter of Jeevaraj Alva and dancer Nandini, is to wed Vivek Oberoi, son of a former Hindi star and himself a Bollywood hero known to Aishwarya Rai (now Bachchan).
The invitation to this celebrity marriage is contained in a Ganjifa picture card Box filled with chocolates! The exquisite box is beautiful and royal, raves Ganesh Venkataramaiah, who is family astrologer for Nandini Alva.
The Ganjifa box is surely not expensive but artistic, Nandini claims, who runs a NGO for poor artisans, along with her son. There is a car pass in the box with instructions to Alvas’ residence in Rajmahal extension. Danseuse Padmini Ravi, a family friend, is assisting Nandini in sending e-mail invitations.
Priyanka Alva, the bride, is known to Kannada star Ramya, as they went to college together. Vivek is lucky to marry Priyanka, observed Ramya in a chat. Priyanka is well-read and much-travelled she added.
