Anirudh Ravichander has married Kavya Maran in an intimate destination wedding in Greece, with the celebrated music composer sharing the first photograph from the ceremony on November 11, 2026. Anirudh captioned the picture, “My once in a lifetime, for a lifetime. 11.11,” confirming a union that had been the subject of weeks of speculation across Indian cinema and cricket.
The wedding took place on Tuesday, November 11, following a traditional Tamil engagement and ring exchange the day before. The two-day celebration brought together family and prominent guests from the worlds of film, business and politics, including superstar Rajinikanth, who is Anirudh’s uncle, and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M. K. Stalin. The couple’s wedding outfits were designed by Tarun Tahiliani, according to the Hindustan Times, and a grand reception in Chennai is scheduled for November 21.
A two-day celebration in Greece
According to reports, the festivities began on November 10, with Anirudh and Kavya exchanging rings in a traditional Tamil engagement ceremony before tying the knot the following day. Anirudh opted for an ivory traditional outfit with intricate embroidery, while Kavya looked radiant in a colour-coordinated, embellished lehenga. Pictures shared after the ceremony show the newlyweds alongside Rajinikanth, Stalin and members of their families, and the images quickly went viral on social media.
The wedding was kept deliberately small, with only close relatives and a carefully selected list of distinguished guests invited to the Mediterranean destination. Reports suggested four private aircraft were arranged to transport guests to Greece, and the celebrations featured traditional South Indian cuisine, with celebrity caterer Arusuvai Arasu Natarajan reportedly responsible for preparing the wedding feast.
Who are the newlyweds?
Anirudh Ravichander is one of the most recognisable music composers in South Indian cinema, known for composing countless romantic melodies and blockbuster film scores. Kavya Maran is the chief executive and co-owner of the Sunrisers Hyderabad cricket franchise in the Indian Premier League, an executive director at Sun TV Network and the daughter of Sun Group chairman Kalanithi Maran. While the couple largely kept their personal lives private, dating rumours began circulating in 2025, and their wedding brings together two of Tamil Nadu’s most prominent families.
What happens next
After completing their wedding celebrations in Greece, Anirudh and Kavya are expected to return to India for a grand reception in Chennai on November 21, which will reportedly see several prominent political and film personalities in attendance. For fans, the first wedding photograph was the moment the rumours finally became official, and the couple’s Greece album has already become one of the most shared celebrity stories of the week.
