The reception, held four days before the wedding, offered members of the film fraternity an opportunity to celebrate with the family, as the ceremony itself is being reserved for relatives and close friends. Allu Sirish and Nayanika Reddy chose March 6 for their wedding, the same date his elder brother Allu Arjun married Sneha Reddy in 2011.
