Jennifer Aniston's Manish Malhotra lehenga in 'Murder Mystery 2' took 3 months to get ready

On Monday night, the streaming service shared the film's trailer on Twitter, in which Aniston is seen participating in the ceremony as a bridesmaid.

The ivory-colored chikankari lehenga was chosen by renowned Hollywood costume designer Debra Mcguire for the beach wedding scene, according to Malhotra's team.

The gown features "graduating rectangular motifs, intricately embroidered floral blouse with pearl droplets, and a handmade back tassle," which took about three months to create.

"Murder Mystery 2," directed by Jeremy Garelick, picks up four years after Nick and Audrey Spitz (Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston) solve their first murder mystery.

When they are invited to celebrate the wedding of their friend, the Maharaja (Adeel Akhtar), on his private island, the two are now full-time detectives struggling to get their private eye agency off the ground.

"Trouble follows the Spitzes again when the groom is kidnapped for ransom shortly after the festivities begin, making every glamorous guest, family member, and the bride herself a suspect," according to the plotline.

Mark Strong, Melanie Laurent, Jodie Turner-Smith, Kuhoo Verma, John Kani, and Dany Boon also appear in the film.

The screenplay was written by James Vanderbilt. Vanderbilt is also involved in the production, as are Sandler, Aniston, Tripp Vinson, James D. Stern, A J Dix, and Allen Covert.

Co-producers include Joseph Vecsey, Judit Maull, and Jonathan Loughran.

"Murder Mystery 2" will be available on Netflix on March 31. PTI RDS RDS SHD SHD

According to the Minister, Air India was a pioneer in its field. They were not only able to fly the Indian flag high in the sky, showcasing India's capabilities, but they were also able to serve as ambassadors of Indian heritage and culture. He praised JRD Tata for his foresight and role as a pioneer. He stated that the exhibits being handed over to the NGMA do not only include modern art masterpieces, but also a diverse range of exquisite handloom, sculptures, and other art pieces.

In his remarks on the occasion, Union Minister Shri G. Kishan Reddy stated that the historic MoU transfers the priceless artefacts collection of Air India since 1953 to the NGMA of the Ministry of Culture. The paintings and artworks will now be returned to their rightful home at the National Gallery of Modern Art, according to the Minister. Shri Kishan Reddy explained that, in line with Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi's vision, the Culture Ministry is working hard to preserve its culture, bring it to the people's attention, and strengthen ties with the youth. The Culture Ministry is constantly working in accordance with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision of "Vikaas Bhi Viraasat Bhi," he added. Air India and the Ministry of Civil Aviation have worked hard to preserve and protect these valuable artworks, and I pledge that we will do so for future generations, the Minister said. He also revealed that the collection will be shown to art enthusiasts in the near future. He also stated that it will be made available to audiences worldwide via innovative digital interfaces. He thanked M/o Civil Aviation and Air India for their significant contributions to the NGMA's art treasure.

Air India acquired and collected a massive number of valuable artworks from around the world during its eighty-year journey as a commercial airline, including paintings, sculptures, wooden carvings, glass paintings, decorative items, textile art, photographs, and other objects. These works of art will be added to the NGMA collection.

The decision by the Ministry of Culture to purchase the priceless collection and transfer it from the Air India Building at Nariman Point in Mumbai to the National Gallery of Modern Art is historic.

The Air India Collection includes acquired and commissioned work by artists such as B Prabha, Shankar Palsikar, Lakshman Pai, Vasudev Gaitonde, M F Husain, S H Raza, K H Ara, and other founders of the Progressive Art Movement such as the pioneering artist Hari Ambadas Gade.
