The wedding reception witnessed Jennifer Lopez taking center stage in a dazzling gold and silver ensemble, treating guests to an impressive lineup of her greatest hits.

Fashion Choices Spark Mixed Reactions
Jennifer Lopez made bold fashion statements during her performance, opting for striking bodysuits and cut-out dresses that highlighted her famous physique. While many admirers praised her confident style choices, the outfits also drew some criticism from certain quarters of social media.
One critical comment questioned, "How can someone say she is looking good in this outfit? The outfit itself is terrible it's like a swimsuit..." Another observer noted, "Is it just me, or do singers save their skimpiest, 'did-you-forget-your-clothes' outfits exclusively for India? Who's requesting this?"
Star-Studded Guest List and Traditional Attire
Adding to the evening's glamour was the presence of Telugu cinema superstar Ram Charan, who attended the festivities looking dapper in an all-black suit complemented by night sunglasses.

During the ceremony, she was photographed alongside the bride's father, Rama Raju Mantena, a prominent figure in the US pharmaceutical industry.
