New Delhi, Nov 12 (ANI): It's not difficult to understand why Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh chose northern Italy to get married. This stunning corner of Europe has attracted everyone from showbiz royalty like David Bowie and George Clooney to nouveau celebs like Kim Kardashian. And no place in Lake Como captures its romantic essence better than Villa del Balbianello, a stunning Italianate villa that began life as a monastery more than seven centuries ago. Later this week, the villa will play host to what is the culmination of Deepika and Ranveer's six-year romance. Surrounded by family and selective friends - including Shah Rukh Khan, Farah Khan and Sanjay Leela Bhansali - the two stunning young Bollywood stars will tie the knot in two separate ceremonies; a Konkani ceremony in celebration of Deepika's Kannada heritage and a second Sindhi do in tribute to Ranveer's slightly more rambunctious background. Security is, understandably, almost water-tight. However, the villa was open to the public until late on Sunday when it was put on lockdown for the remainder of the week. The only way to get inside was by hiking up a gruelling two-and-a-half kilometre trail that meanders its way through a peninsula that juts out from the eastern shore of Lake Como. The ceremony will take place inside a surprisingly intimate dwelling that overlooks the villa's breathtakingly beautiful landscaped gardens with its roman statues and ancient flora.
