For the special occasion, Chadha will be wearing an achkan from his uncle, designer Pawan Sachdeva's collection, while Chopra will dress in a Manish Malhotra lehenga.
According to the party source, the ceremony will begin at 5 pm with the Sukhmani Sahib path, followed by Ardas. Engagement will take place at 8 pm.
The actress' cousin, film star Priyanka Chopra Jonas, reached Delhi on Saturday morning to attend the ring ceremony. Fashion designer Manish Malhotra has also arrived in the national capital for the function.
