SRK’s kin Rustum Tiwari is set to wed in town

On the right is the wedding
invitation card for Shah Rukh
Khan ’s brother-in-law Rustam
Tiwari, who is all set to tie the
knot with actor Shweta Varma
on March 12 in the Capital.
Tiwari, a 30-year-old Delhi-based
entrepreneur, is SRK ’s wife
Gauri’s first cousin, while his
fiancee Shweta made her deb ut
in the film Hide and Seek in 2010.
Shweta ’s second film, Bhindi
Bazaar, co-starring actor Kay Kay
Menon, is set to open a day prior
to their wedding.
“I am very excited and nervous at
the same time both for the
wedding and Shweta ’s film,” says
Tiwari, who will be wearing a
rust-coloured sherwani on his
big day. Shweta will wear a red
lehenga with a touch of blue.
Both the bride and the groom
have been dating each other
since eight years. Tiwari, who
grew up with Gauri Khan, says,
“ We didn’t want a regular
wedding invite, and that’s how
we experimented with artist
Anjana Kuthiala ’s painting.”
The painting, which is the cover
of the card, shows a bride and a
groom in very vibrant colours. “I
came up with the idea after a lot
of brainstorming with Rustam ’s
Parents. I have even made a 4/3
feet replica of this painting,
which I will present to the couple
on the wedding, ” says Kuthiala.
