Bengaluru, June 16: Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president DK Shivakumar's daughter Aishwarya and Cafe Coffe Day founder late VG Siddhartha's son, Amarthya Hegde got engaged at SM Krishna Residence, Sadashivanagar in Bengaluru on Monday. The wedding ceremony is slated for December.

As per traditions followed at Hegde's home, there can be no auspicious events for a year after the death of someone in the family.

Only family members were present in the event. Amarthya Hegde is also the grandson of former Union minister SM Krishna.
