The pre-wedding festivities of Aaliyah Kashyap, daughter of filmmaker Anurag Kashyap, have officially kicked off! Aaliyah, who got engaged to her boyfriend Shane Gregoire in 2023, is set to tie the knot next year. Close friend and actor Khushi Kapoor took to Instagram Stories to share a picture from the pre-wedding celebrations, giving fans a glimpse into the bride-to-be’s preparations.

Let the fun begin

In the photo, Aaliyah is seen with her girl gang, including Khushi, filmmaker Imtiaz Ali’s daughter Ida Ali, and other friends, all dressed in traditional attire. Khushi captioned the picture, “It has started!” tagging both Aaliyah and Shane’s Instagram accounts.

This isn’t the first time Aaliyah has given her fans a sneak peek into her wedding preparations. Last month, she enjoyed a bachelorette party with her besties, including Khushi and Ida, in Thailand. Aaliyah shared a series of pictures from the trip, showcasing their sun-kissed adventures, cocktail-sipping, and yacht party fun.

About the couple

Anurag Kashyap had shared a hilarious announcement last year when he received the news of Aaliyah’s engagement during the Cannes Film Festival. He was at the festival for his film, Kennedy. “Unaware that I am calculating the number of remakes I will have to do to throw a wedding soirée, because my dearest @aaliyahkashyap and her beau , my lovely @shanegregoire threw a total curveball at us in the middle of our @festivaldecannes journey of #Kennedy by announcing their engagement,” he wrote.

Aaliyah had shared pictures from the proposal, showcasing her stunning diamond ring and the romantic moment when she said yes to Shane in a picturesque green field. The couple met on a dating app and have been together for quite some time. Aaliyah is a social media influencer who promotes various labels through her social media accounts and creates content on her YouTube channel.
