Music composer Anirudh Ravichander and Kavya Maran, daughter of Sun Group chairman Kalanithi Maran, are scheduled to hold their wedding reception in Chennai on November 21, 2026, according to the Telangana Chief Minister’s Office.

What happened

The reception date and venue were announced after Sun Group chairman Kalanithi Maran and his wife Kavery Maran met Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy at his Jubilee Hills residence in Hyderabad. The chief minister’s office posted a confirmation on X on October 17, stating the reception will be in Chennai on November 21.

What the reports add

Gulf News reported that the meeting also included the chief minister’s wife and that photographs and videos of the encounter were shared by the office. Khaleej Times added that Tamil Nadu chief minister Joseph Vijay and Prime Minister Narendra Modi have reportedly been invited to the reception. Both outlets note that neither Anirudh nor Kavya has issued a personal statement confirming the arrangements.

What was said

The Telangana Chief Minister’s Office posted on X: “The wedding reception of Kavya Maran and Anirudh Ravichander is scheduled to be held in Chennai on November 21.” The post was quoted by Gulf News. Khaleej Times reproduced the same X post, adding the wording “Sun Group Chairman Shri Kalanithi Maran and his wife, Smt. Kavery Maran, met Hon’ble Chief Minister Shri A. Revanth Reddy … and invited him to the wedding reception of their daughter, Kavya Maran.”

How it came about

Speculation about the couple’s marriage has circulated for more than a year, with earlier media reports suggesting a ceremony in Greece on November 11. The recent invitation to the chief minister follows a pattern of high‑profile Indian weddings receiving political attention, similar to the recent coverage of Sir Paul McCartney’s performance at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding, which Felo reported on October 3.
