30 celebrities who attended Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone's wedding reception - in pictures

It's surely the last of the many, many parties that marked Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh's wedding celebrations, but a (second) reception held at the Grand Hyatt hotel in Mumbai on December 1 was interestingly the only one attended by a lot of Bollywood celebrities.

The couple were adamant that their Lake Como destination wedding should include just 40 or so of their close friends and family members, while the Bangalore reception was held for Padukone's family and friends. Padukone, who sported traditional Indianwear for all the other ceremonies, opted for an eye-catching dress by Lebanese designer Zuhair Murad, with a veil in all red, while Singh wore a black tuxedo by Rohit Gandhi and Rahul Khanna.

Children who witnessed blood bath want to help others

Aged just 11, Khulood Al Najjar’s daughter, Nora, bravely attempted to fight off Philip Spence. Her finger was injured when she put her hand in between the claw hammer and her mother’s head.

As a vital witness, she was forced to relive the ordeal by police who needed to identify the attacker and ensure he was found guilty.

Now aged 16, Nora has decided she wants to dedicate her career to helping other victims of crime.

“It was very horrible for her. She saw her mum, dying, just next to her eyes. But now she just wants to go forward,” said Khulood, speaking about how her eldest daughter was dealing with the trauma of the incident five years ago. “She is saying, 'mama, I want to be a lawyer, I want to help people achieve justice'.”

Khulood’s youngest daughter, Fatima, was seven at the time of the attack and attempted to help paramedics responding to the incident.

“Now she wants to be a maxillofacial doctor,” Khulood said. “She said to me ‘it is because a maxillofacial doctor returned your face, mama’. Now she wants to help people see themselves in the mirror again.”

Khulood’s son, Saeed, was nine in 2014 and slept through the attack. While he did not witness the trauma, this made it more difficult for him to understand what had happened. He has ambitions to become an engineer.
