[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is this Crazy Rich Asian world? I wouldn’t expect a even a Kardashian wedding to be so over the top. [/quote]

So she's from a family of insane wealth? Or do people go poor throwing these lavish events. I know the Jonas brothers have some money, but this seems way beyond their wealth.  [/quote]

In some cultures, over-the-top weddings are the norm. I knew a woman who lived in a Middle Eastern country for several years and even poor people had weddings that were wild. They’d have entertainers, multiple bands, dancers, parades, and the party went on until at least sunrise.[/quote]

Yes, even poor people throw lavish weddings and people sometimes take loans and basically ruin their financial wellbeing. For a Bollywood superstar like Priyanka - this is a very normal wedding. There are two things Indian parents save for by living very frugally - their kids education and their kids marriages.

I find it odd that American people find this wedding over the top considering that stars like Celine Dion, George Cloony also have had lavish weddings.  Priyanka Chopra has made 50 movies in India. She charges tens of  crores per movie (at least in White money) so that easily translates to 50 million.

Do you all remember the Chinese actress who was imprisoned in China for not paying taxes? Her assets were around 110 million dollars. This is a Chinese actress and these other film industries are puny compared to Bollywood.  Priyanka could easily have assets above 100 million dollars and so does every single industrialist who was there attending the wedding.  She also has a huge fan-following all over the world and in the Asian expat community in US.

If you are questioning why she has so much coverage, then it is only because she is a money making machine for many people, media, industries, and it is part and parcel of her business to be in the public eye.  There has been three major weddings of top stars in India recently and the celebrations and coverage was insane. Two of them actually married abroad - Anushka and Deepika.  It is pretty amazing that Priyanka actually came back to India for her wedding. The fact that even though she married a foreigner and non-Hindu, she followed all her customs and rituals have really pleased her fanbase. [/quote]
