Bollywood brides you would love to run away with

Deepika Padukone


Bridal photoshoots kept the Bollywood portals abuzz this year. From Katrina Kaif, Kirti Sanon to Alia Bhatt and Jacqueline Fernandez, a line-up of actresses kept the temperatures soaring in bridal attires all year long. But what sets this season of photoshoots apart is the distinct bridal ensembles that gave serious style goals to brides-to-be.   

Each creation was different from what we are used to seeing (read gaudy red lehenga with golden embroidery) and that we had already seen. The designers went on to explore different hues, makes and cultures to create something unseen and unheard of. From boho chic and Cindrella-inspired to tribal grunge and European touch, they went all about to put together a unique look.  

Our Indian weddings are basically a series of rituals. We have sangeet, we have mehendi, shaadi, followed by receptions and post-marriage ceremonies. Now-a-days, a lot of them hold a bachelorette party too. Keeping in mind each of these events, fashion labels have launched a range of over-the-top to understated looks for the new-age bride to dazzle like a star at every occasion. 

Take a look at our top ten gorgeous Bollywood brides and give us one name in the comments box below with whom you would love to run away with. 
Kirti Sanon
This is an out and out bohemian style bridal look by Dilwale actress Kirti Sanon. The casual take on bridal look with embellishment of a chic bindiya is sure to become a rage amongst the new-age brides. Would you like to go in for one on your big day? Not exactly on the wedding day but surely for one of the occasions like mehendi or bachelorette party.


This hulk inspired outfit may look off-beat but to look unique on your big day, this is an apt sartorial choice. Just a piece of necklace to adorn the plunging neckline of the lavish dress is enough to dazzle like Deepika Padukone.

A bridal look with a tribal grunge, is a combination that can compel you to ditch the traditional red lehenga. Alia Bhat fans surely take shine to this one.

Minimalism at its best. Just a set of bangles to adorn the bridal wear. A big thumbs up to Shraddha Kapoor's this look!

A stunning mix of east and west! Must say, the nath is the hero of this bridal wear graced by Katrina Kaif.

Jacqueline Fernandez gave an all-new twist to bridal wears in this metallic look.

Bhoomi Pednekar's this Cindrella-inspired bridal wear has lavishness written all over it.

Kangana Ranaut's understated dress and over-the-top jewellery look is a show-stopper in all sense of word. The chunky necklace, the lavish earrings and the stunning bindiya added the deserved sparkle to the minimalist ensemble.

Disha Patani's European bridal look is a dream look that every girl secretly wishes to achieve on her wedding day.

Style and Sonam Kapoor go hand in hand and when it comes to one of the top categories in fashion - bridal wear, how can she be left behind. She is the front runner in the bridal shoots with her empress look.

Long live the jewellery heritage of Haryana!

Image
Don’t look at Haryana the way Bollywood wants you to view it. It’s much more than what their limited understanding of this state’s rich culture permits. The cows, the hookahs and the khaats definitely form the indispensable element of a traditional Haryanvi household. But that’s not about it. For the uninitiated, Haryana’s history is replete with myths, legends, valour and glory. The sacred Vedas were written here, it is the birthplace of the Universe, Lord Krishna narrated the sermons of Bhagwad Gita here and the great saint Ved Vyas wrote the Mahabharata in Sanskrit. A state with such a glorious past cannot be conversed in the 70mm of cinema. You need to have a special vision to behold its beauty. Talk about jewellery, in this domain too Haryana does not cease to overwhelm you. While the rich and affluent bejewel themselves in gold fineries , silver still remains the ornamental choice for many. Check out what the state’s treasure trove holds for you. Just lik

The treasure trove of Andhra Pradesh

Image
You cannot sum up India’s jewellery heritage without paying a special tribute to Andhra Pradesh.  Home to diamond mining, pearl harvesting and jewellery traditions, the state boasts of a glorious history with a virtual monopoly in the global jewellery industry till 1826 (until founding of the diamond mines in Rhodesia, Africa). What’s more! Eight of the 10 most valuable jewellery pieces on Earth today were found from the mines located here. With the ancient Golconda mine in its crown, the state is also the mother of the several legendary gems such as the Kohinoor and Hope Diamond. A grand salute! Another feather in its cap is Karimnagar’s silver filigree . But that does not mean, it lags behind in the gold jewellery game. Mainly comprising of Vaddaanam, Aravanke, Kashulahaaram , Buttalu and various other customary gold jewellery designs, it is a continuously evolving ancient tradition. However, brides from different communities have their own unique bridal jewellery , of

The rich and varied Tulunadu treasures

Image
First let’s make it clear. Not everyone living in South India is Mallu and particularly, not everyone living in Karnataka speaks Kannada. There is a culturally rich clan of Tulunadus living in Mangalore who are distinction in every way. Their rituals, their language and their lifestyle reflect the uniqueness of their culture. But still, its jewellery heritage is something that connects it to the whole of India.   Just like other cultures of India, Tulu women too are bejewelled from head to toe. From armlets, bracelets, bangles, necklaces and earrings to finger rings, toe rings, nose rings, anklets, pendants and waistbands, their trinket box is replete with jewels . Just that they call it by different names. For instance, for them diamond is Vajjira, while coral is Pakala. Similarly, pearl is Muttu, ghungroo is referred as Gejje and hand-made gold coin goes by the name Nanya. Knowing the names of the jewellery elements, you would be able to guess the type of ornaments s
