Sonakshi Sinha has often shown her love for the timeless saree. From choosing her mother’s vintage Chikankari saree for her wedding to embracing a classic red Banarasi for her reception, the ‘Dabangg’ actress has given traditional drapes a special place in her wardrobe.
For her wedding to Zaheer Iqbal in June 2024, Sonakshi Sinha chose a traditional saree that reflected timeless Indian style and family memories. She wore a 44-year-old ivory Chikankari saree that belonged to her mother, Poonam Sinha. The pure silk georgette saree featured delicate hand-embroidered Chikankari work.
For her grand wedding reception, Sonakshi opted for a bright crimson-red Banarasi silk saree from designer Sanjay Garg’s label Raw Mango. The saree, called the ‘Chand Buta’, was made from pure Katan silk and featured gold crescent and floral motifs along with a heavy zari border. She completed the bridal look with an emerald-and-gold choker, statement jhumkas and traditional red chura bangles.
