Priyanka Alva, daughter of Karnataka Minister and Senior Janata Dal leader Jeevaraj Alwa and social worker Mrs. Nandini Alwa. The wedding date has been fixed. It is on October 29.

Engagement Ceremony will take place in first week of September only. Priyanka Alva is Business Management Graduate from London, Britain.

Having spent her entire student life overseas, Priyanka is currently working in the NGO, Artistes Foundation for Arts, established by her family and helps her mother run many orphanages as well. “Viveik and Priyanka share a great passion for social work. That is their best connect,” says mother Nandini, adding “Priyan-ka completed her education in New York, where her subjects dealt with non-profit organisations and social work. She is very pleased with the fact that Viveik also shares the same passion, having contributed and worked towards aiding several social issues.”

Viveik Oberoi, 34, was earlier engaged to former girlfriend Gurpreet in 2002, which was called off almost immediately. Viveik was then dating actress Aishwarya Rai for two years, which saw a bitter end. The actor’s parents were since then on the lookout for the perfect bride for their son.

The actor was engaged to model Gurpreet in 2002. The relationship didn’t work, neither did his supposed fling with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Vivek was then linked to many co-stars including Neeru Bajwa and Vidya Balan. The Alva family refused to comment for reasons of privacy, and Vivek was unavailable. Probably, he’s busy as he’s in good company.

The 34-year-old actor who once was involved with Salman Aishwarya controversy, Viveik Oberoi has decided to tie to the knot with a Bengaluru girl — Priyanka Alva. 

Priyanka is the daughter of well-known danseuse Nandini Alva and late Janata Dal (U) leader Jeevaraj Alva. Priyanka has studied in London and is currently working in the NGO, Artistes Foundation for Arts.

Sources say that the courtship was arranged with help from Bharatanatyam dancer and choreographer Padmini Ravi, who is a close friend of Nandini Alva.

Looks like Vivek and Priyanka may get married in September/October of 2010. Don't forget to visit the site for Vivek Oberoi Wedding Pictures, Vivek and Priyanka's wedding pictures.
