Alia Bhatt Explains Choice Of Saree Over Lehenga For Her Wedding To Ranbir Kapoor

Alia Bhatt defied convention by wearing a saree instead of a heavy lehenga to her wedding to Ranbir Kapoor, a choice that set her apart from her contemporaries. Last year, the couple held an intimate wedding ceremony at their Mumbai home, and Alia recently revealed her unconventional choice in an interview with Vogue magazine.
Alia looked stunning in an ivory Sabyasachi saree with a matching dupatta on her wedding day. In an interview with Vogue, she explained her reasoning for this choice, saying, "I love a saree." It's the most comfortable garment in the world, which is why I wore one instead of a lehenga to my wedding".
"You should celebrate the side of you that you feel is leading in that moment—whether that's a saree, a super easy street-style vibe, or an over-the-top gown," the actor continued, emphasising the freedom women have in choosing their attire. "The beauty of being a woman, in my opinion, is that you can wear all of these different outfits all of the time. I can put on a pantsuit. I can put on a gown. One of the most striking aspects of this is the variety of our wardrobe. That, in my opinion, is a wonderful thing to celebrate".
Alia looked stunning in an ivory saree with intricate gold details on her wedding day. She kept her makeup simple to match her overall elegant and minimalist bridal look. She also deviated from tradition by opting for a simpler henna design rather than the elaborate bridal patterns that are typically seen on such occasions.

Her wedding mehendi was also adapted for the film's wedding song "Kudmayi," which was released separately the following month due to length constraints. Click here to read more.
