Another day, another set of pictures from bride-to-be Sobhita Dhulipala's pelli kuthuru ceremony. The actress looked as stunning as ever in a red saree, paired with a matching full-sleeve blouse. She complemented the look with multicoloured bangles and antique jewellery. Her hair was tied in a sleek ponytail with a middle parting.
ICYDK, the pelli kuthuru ceremony is a beautiful blend of customs, rituals and celebrations. It's a special way for the bride's family to officially welcome her into their home and give their blessings for her upcoming married life. The ceremony includes different customs and rituals that can vary depending on the region.
A day ago, Sobhita's sister Samantha shared a new set of images from the actress' pre-wedding festivities. "Healthy #SoChay," she captioned the post.
Some more pics from Sobhita and Naga Chaitanya's mangalasnanam and haldi ceremonies. Take a look.
The couple's wedding invitation features Sobhita and Naga Chaitanya's names, along with the names of both families across generations. The wedding date, December 4, 2024, is clearly highlighted.
The card combines traditional South Indian design elements with elegance. It includes symbols like hanging temple bells, which represent new beginnings and blessings and brass lamps at the bottom. The message on the card read, "We are delighted to announce the wedding of Sobhita Dhulipala and Naga Chaitanya. Your good wishes and blessings are much appreciated on this special occasion."
