Celebrity weddings -- who doesn't love predicting, hearing and knowing all about them?

Well, it's a brand new year and to kickstart it on an interesting note, the world's largest matrimonial service, Shaadi.com, conducted a poll among its Mumbai users to find out just who they think will marry in 2011, whose weddings they are eagerly anticipating and whose unions they couldn't care less about!

Here are the results!

Eligible bachelor most likely to marry in 2011: Rahul Gandhi

The Gandhi scion took the lead when it came to men who will give up the single life -- 34.69 percent of pollers predicted that he will get hitched this year.
