Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], January 27 (ANI): Days after tying the knot, the newlyweds Athiya Shetty and KL Rahul gave a glimpse of their fun-filled haldi ceremony.

In the images, the couple can be seen having a blast with their family and friends while applying haldi on each other’s faces. One of the images shows Athiya and cricketer KL Rahul’s faces covered with Haldi paste.

In another image, we can also see Athiya applying haldi to her brother Ahaan.


“Sukh (happiness),” Athiya simply captioned the post.
For her haldi ceremony, Athiya chose a gorgeous Ritu Kumar’s ivory-hued cotton anarkali suit with gotta patti work. She kept her look minimal with an oversized maang teeka. On the other hand, KL Rahul wore an elegant kurta.

As in the groom’s haldi, it is also common for his kurta to be torn apart by the end of the ceremony, KL Rahul’s friends did not miss chance to perform this fun ritual.
