Charles has succeeded his mother Queen Elizabeth, who passed away last September.

At the Age of 74, Charles would be the oldest British Monarch to receive the 360 year old St Edward’s Crown. The coronation is set to happen at the London Westminster Abbey where the King would sit upon the 14th Century throne.

Mr Dhankhar, who will formally represent India, arrived in London yesterday with his wife Sudesh Dhankhar for the imperial event.

Sonam Kapoor is also all set to be present at the Coronation Ceremony.

She is set to provide a Spoken Word performance which is for inaugurating the CommonWealth Choir Group.

At the coronation ceremony, Rishi Sunak, Britain's first Indian-origin Prime Minister, would recite from the biblical book of Colossians. He and his wife, Akshata Murty, will be leading the flag-bearer procession.

How Much Does the King Charles Coronation Cost? The statement went on to explain that significant state occasions, such as the Queen's funeral, produce more money than they cost to hold, garnering massive global interest and boosting the national economy.
