Katrina Kaif's mehendi artist might, just might, be Veena Nagda, mehendi artist to the stars who is trending after sharing two cryptic Instagram Stories. Ms Nagda, who has worked with Katrina on several movies and was the mehendi artist at Deepika Padukone's wedding to Ranveer Singh, shared a picture of herself captioned "So happy. Finally we did it" and hashtagged #bigfatIndianwedding. She also shared a second story with a clip showing a drive through very Rajasthan-like scenery - Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal's wedding is being held at Six Senses Resort, Fort Barwara in Sawai Madhopur. The Internet, eager to jump to conclusions as always, thinks Veena Nagda is the mehendi artist for Katrina and Vicky - the mehendi took place yesterday.

The henna for the mehendi was sourced from Sojat in Rajasthan and is chemical free. According to news agency PTI, 20 kilos of powder and 400 cones of mehendi was used at Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal's wedding. The henna reportedly cost between Rs 50,000 and Rs 1 lakh but, also reportedly, the business supplying the henna has not charged the couple.
Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal's wedding guest list is a very select one and includes filmmakers Kabir Khan and Vijay Krishna Acharya; both have directed Katrina - Kabir in New York, Ek Tha Tiger and other films and Vijay Krishna Acharya in Dhoom 3 and Thugs Of Hindostan. Kabir Khan's wife Mini Mathur is an invitee as is Vijay Krishna Achara's wife.
