Anant Singh’s daughter Shivangi Singh will marry Rishikesh Kumar on November 25, with plans for a wedding that reports say could draw up to 4 lakh guests. The Mokama MLA, expelled from the JD(U) last month, has arranged a horse race with a Thar SUV as the prize and will gift his son-in-law a Land Rover Defender worth Rs 3 crore.
The wedding in Ladma has been in the works for weeks, with massive decorations and preparations on full display, according to NDTV. Some reports put the guest count at 2 lakh, while others say 4 lakh; the Indian Express reported the smaller figure, NewsX and Oneindia cited the larger. All agree the kitchen will serve 150 different dishes.
The wedding card has gone viral, and the guest list is vast. Political bigwigs and Bollywood celebrities are expected to attend, per NewsX. The invitation, as reported by Business Today, is open even to guests from Pakistan. Preparations at the venue include a 10-bigha pandal and arrangements for a horse race, according to the same outlet.
Shivangi’s marriage to Rishikesh Kumar, who also goes by Ankit, will take place on November 25. The groom is the son of Commandant Ranvijay Kumar and a resident of Krishnanagar in Bihta, Patna district, as per the invitation.
India Today reported that Anant Singh has bought a Land Rover Defender worth Rs 3 crore for his son-in-law. His son will receive a BMW worth over Rs 1 crore. The gifts were lined up ahead of the ceremony, though the son’s role in the wedding wasn’t specified in the reports.
The Defender is a significant purchase, and the BMW adds to the list of luxury vehicles linked to the wedding. No other gifts were mentioned in the available reports.
A horse race is part of the wedding events, with a Mahindra Thar SUV as the prize for the winner. News18 and Oneindia both reported this detail. The race is expected to draw crowds, adding to the spectacle of the wedding.
No specifics on the number of horses or the track length were provided by the sources.
Rishikesh Kumar studied at an American university, according to India.com. The specific institution was not named in the headlines. He is described as a resident of Krishnanagar in Patna’s Bihta area.
The wedding card that went viral highlights the couple’s names and the date. The groom’s father, Ranvijay Kumar, holds the rank of Commandant, though further details about his career were not available.
Anant Singh was expelled from the JD(U) last month for anti-party activities, the Indian Express reported. He faces a court-ordered surrender, which NewsX and News18 both noted would happen around the time of the wedding. The exact surrender date was not given, but reports say it comes days after the ceremony.
The wedding is proceeding despite the legal and political troubles. The scale of the event, with thousands of guests, luxury gifts, and a horse race, has put the Mokama legislator back in the spotlight.
