Looking at wedding pictures is always fun, be it your own or somebody else’s. And if the ‘somebody else’ in question is a Bollywood celebrity, our excitement goes up by a notch. There is a certain aura and mystery around celebrities that makes everything about them a little more exciting, especially their shaadis. So ICYMI, here’s a quick trip down the memory lane – all the Bollywood celebrity weddings of the last decade!

1. Sanjay and Manyata Dutt – February 11, 2008

Sanjay Dutt had been married and divorced twice before he met Manyata and fell in love with her. There is a 20 years age gap between Sanjay and Manyata, but that didn’t stop them from taking their relationship to the next level. Sanju baba’s sisters Priya and Namrata were against this match and did not attend the wedding. It took some time, but the family warmed up to Manyata, especially after they saw how she stood like a rock beside him during his jail term and other hardships. The couple has two lovely children Shahraan and Iqra.

2. Shilpa Shetty and Raj Kundra – November 22, 2009
