The grand wedding reception of Varun Tej and Lavanya Tripathi, held in Hyderabad on Sunday, saw a star-studded gathering from the Telugu cinema industry. The event was graced by various celebrities, making it a night to remember. Varun’s family, including his actor-sister Niharika Konidela, and his parents Nagendra Babu and Padmaja Konidela, were in attendance. Notable actors like Chiranjeevi, Naga Chaitanya, and Venkatesh were also present, adding to the glitz and glamour of the evening. Renowned badminton player Saina Nehwal joined the festivities, donning a shimmering blue ethnic outfit.

Numerous videos and pictures from the lavish reception, which took place on November 5, have flooded the internet, offering a glimpse of the grand affair. The couple had recently tied the knot in a destination wedding in Tuscany, Italy on November 1, and they arrived at the reception hand-in-hand, exuding elegance and charm.

Varun Tej and Lavanya Tripathi looked resplendent in their reception attire. Varun chose a sophisticated black and gold ethnic ensemble, while Lavanya adorned a stunning golden saree. Her look was accentuated with a statement necklace, matching earrings, and the traditional red sindoor.

The N Convention Center in Hyderabad provided a magnificent backdrop for the reception, where Niharika Konidela, Nagendra Babu, and the family posed alongside the newlyweds. Other celebrity guests also graced the occasion, with Naga Chaitanya appearing in a formal blue suit, and veteran actor Venkatesh donning a stylish grey and black semi-formal attire. Varun Tej’s uncle, Chiranjeevi, looked dapper in a black suit.

Varun Tej and Lavanya Tripathi’s wedding took place on a picturesque Wednesday. The intimate ceremony adhered to Hindu customs and was held at Borgo San Felice in Tuscany, Italy. Official wedding photos and candid snapshots from various wedding functions were unveiled last week, providing a glimpse of the beautiful celebration.

Following the Italian wedding and the reception in Hyderabad, the couple is said to be planning another reception in Dehradun. A source revealed, “The wedding will be intimate, much like their engagement. So, the reception in Hyderabad will be for their friends and colleagues in the film industry. The reception in Dehradun will be more for their closest friends, as Lavanya grew up there.”
