“Oh shonduri…Tomar monta diye jao, Tara Tari eshe jao…”
Bengali’s love for wearing saree on the wedding day has been constant. Especially the red Banarasi saree or as it’s said in Bengali as ‘Lal Benarosi’. In fact, they prefer wearing different types of sarees during all the rituals of the wedding ceremony. Starting from the day of ashirbaad, which is the day of blessing when the marriage gets fixed, till the day of bou bhat, it is the ceremony arranged by the groom’s family to introduce the new bride to the entire family. Throughout all the functions, the Bengali brides are seen wearing sarees.
We have spotted a few Bengali brides who looked like Rani on their wedding day. By wearing these beautiful sarees, paired with a matching or contrasting blouse and ghoomta / ghoonghat and then adorned by gold ornaments, who can stop you from being a RANI?
