Aditi wore the saree in a very traditional way with the pallu falling on her shoulders. The plain beige drape with golden borders sewn around the entire length of the drape particularly around the hem and bordering all the sides of it gives it a royal essence.
The highlight of Aditi Rao Hydari’s bridal fit has to be its extensive blouse that perfectly complemented her drape. The actor’s half-sleeved blouse with golden stripes screamed royalty. For accessories, Aditi opted for a classic gold kundan necklace, jhumkas, nose ring, anklets, and bangles adding just the right amount of bling to her overall look.
