Here is a curated list of gorgeous divas from the Bollywood and television industry, who once shared stunning glimpses of their 'mehendi' designs on the holy occasion of Karva Chauth.
The beautiful occasion of Karwa Chauth is dedicated especially to all couples and their happy married lives. During this occasion, the married women fast for the entire day from sunrise to moonrise for the well-being of their husbands. Recent trends show that loving husbands are also keeping fasts for their wives, which proves their love and support for them.
Talking about the rituals, on this day, the women used to do solah sringar by wearing bright-coloured outfits and jewellery, and a day before that, they clad their hands with unique mehendi designs. Thus, here we have curated a list of stunning divas from the Bollywood and television industry, who once flaunted beautiful mehendi designs ahead of celebrating their Karva Chauth.
To begin our list, we have the late legendary actress, Sridevi, who is still etched in many hearts for her beauty and stunning personality, even after leaving for the heavenly abode. Although she kept her personal life low-key, time and again, we had also stumbled upon some beautiful glimpses of her showing off her simple and round mehendi design during one of the times when she celebrated Karva Chauth. Talking about Sridevi's love for simple and round mehendi design, once in an interview with Zoom, ace mehendi artist, Veena Nagda had shared:
"Sridevi ji used to love the round mehendi design. She kept it simple and round always. And, she used to apply mehendi on every Karva Chauth without fail."
