IndiaToday.in has exclusively learnt inside scoops from Alia and Ranbir’s mehendi ceremony. Alia’s mehendi design has a number 8 connect (Ranbir’s lucky number). The mehendi that was used, was organic. A source shared that Alia was heard telling one of the mehendi designers if they could make an infinity design based on the number 8 and horizontally incorporate it somewhere on her palms.
Ranbir’s cousins Kareena Kapoor Khan and Karisma Kapoor looked gorgeous in ivory and mustard ensembles as their arrived for the pre-wedding event. The Kapoor sisters sat next to bride-to-be Alia during the mehendi ceremony. Traditional Punjabi songs were being played with a mix of Bollywood tunes like Kabira in the background.
A source from Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor's mehendi ceremony further revealed that there were dholak and folk singers at the mehendi. The mehendi ceremony started after the Ganesh puja. Only family members attended the mehendi apart from Karan Johar, Ayan Mukerji, and Aarti Shetty. The mehendi rituals had a specific decor of red flowers with yellow/marigold-themed drapery. Guests were also offered Ganesh puja prasad before the mehendi began. Karan Johar was spotted playing the perfect host while Ayan Mukerji sat next to Alia.
