The wedding may take place at the Bachchans' family home of 'Prateeksha', instead of a five-star hotel in town or Jodhpur's Umaid Bhavan.
The wedding will be followed by receptions in Delhi and Mumbai.
In what is a sort of first for a Bollywood wedding, there are reports that the exclusive rights of the wedding have been sold to a foreign media house for an undisclosed sum of money.
The wedding itself will be a close-knit affair, to be attended by family and friends only, and there is speculation it could happen on April 18.
Amitabh Bachchan 's mother, Teji Bachchan, is ailing and admitted to Lilavati Hospital.
This is also being cited as a reason for Bollywood's first family not wanting to postpone the wedding any longer.
Abhishek is currently shooting for Drona and the bride-to-be, Ash, is shooting for Ashutosh Gowarikar 's Jodha Akbar . Both plan to wrap up the shoots by March-end.
