Bollywood’s charismatic duo, Rakul Preet Singh and Jackky Bhagnani, recently took to social media to share glimpses from their intimate mehendi ceremony, enchanting fans with stunning visual treats that depicted traditional opulence and modern elegance. The vibrant occasion sprinkled with phulkari artistry was a picturesque start to their matrimonial journey.
Basking in the celebratory aura of love, Rakul Preet Singh was nothing short of regal in her meticulously designed phulkari lehenga by the celebrated designer Arpita Mehta. The lehenga’s shade of rust brought out the actress’s radiant beauty, while her accompanying long cape boasted intricate embroidery, harmonizing perfectly with the theme of the event. Jackky Bhagnani, complementing his bride-to-be, chose a hot pink sherwani set that stood out with its sartorial sharpness.
The actress’s choice of accessories was spot-on, with oversized earrings and a maang tika that added a touch of grandeur to her ensemble. Jackky’s trendy attire was captured by designer Kunal Rawal, whose creations encapsulated the mood perfectly for the pre-nuptial festivities.
The Instagram post was lovingly captioned by Rakul, expressing her heartfelt thanks to Arpita Mehta for crafting “the most beautiful outfit” and reviving the traditional phulkari technique with added magic. She also extended her gratitude to Kunal Rawal for portraying the occasion’s mood through his outfit design, stating that it was everything they could have hoped for and more.
In a follow-up post, we saw Rakul in a breathtaking Tarun Tahiliani lehenga for the wedding day, an ensemble that captured the essence of bridal splendor. Jackky Bhagnani’s sartorial statement was equally impressive in an ivory chikankari sherwani by the same designer. The couple’s choices reflected a blend of classic styles and contemporary fashion sensibilities.
The wedding lehenga worn by Rakul was intricately detailed with hand-embroidered floral patterns, enhanced by pearls and crystals on the sheer sleeves. The light pink base of the outfit was beautifully juxtaposed with the vivid floral embroidery. Her polished bridal look was highlighted with polki jewellery, a dewy makeup base, and soft pink lips, epitomizing the minimalist bride aesthetic.
Rakul and Jackky’s nuptials were a star-studded affair with the glitterati of Bollywood in attendance, including the likes of Akshay Kumar, Tiger Shroff, Shilpa Shetty, Arjun Kapoor, Varun Dhawan, and Esha Deol. Being part of the industry’s biggest names, the turnout was a spectacular homage to the relationship the couple has built within the film fraternity over the years.
The couple’s love story was publically acknowledged in October 2021 when they announced their relationship on Instagram. Since then, the fans have eagerly awaited each tidbit of this fairytale romance unfolding.
As per Jackky’s father, Vashu Bhagnani, the newlyweds will embark on their honeymoon post the release of the action thriller ‘Bade Miyan Chote Miyan’, which stars Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff in lead roles.
Rakul, a versatile actress known for her dynamic acting skills, is set to enthrall audiences with her upcoming role in ‘Indian 2’, alongside the acclaimed actor Kamal Haasan. The eagerly anticipated film also includes Bobby Simhaa and Priya Bhavani Shankar in significant roles. Its predecessor, released in 1996, featured Kamal Haasan as an elderly freedom fighter challenging corruption’s stronghold.
The fairy tale events that marked the union of Rakul Preet Singh and Jackky Bhagnani were, to say the least, a spectacle of sartorial and cultural splendor. Unquestionably, the beginning of their marital journey was adorned with traditional flair and contemporary charm, setting the stage for a joyous and prosperous future together.
