The result was a wedding party that blended cosplay and Indian: A practical reader guide

Actor and singer Sanjeeta Bhattacharya, known for her role in Jawan, and music producer Raag Sethi brought their shared love for music, cinema and pop culture into their wedding celebrations, turning their sangeet into a lively, unconventional costume party.

The most eye-catching element, however, was the playful costume theme. Guests arrived dressed as familiar pop-culture characters, with looks inspired by characters such as Jasmine, Timon and Pumbaa, Wolverine and Mario. The result was a wedding party that blended cosplay and Indian festive fashion. The look included a cropped sweetheart-neck top with off-shoulder straps, paired with fitted harem-style trousers and a sheer, split-skirt overlay. She completed the outfit with a statement silver-and-green choker, matching drop earrings and a delicate maang tikka. Celebrations like these reflect a larger shift in modern wedding trends , where couples are increasingly moving away from rigid traditions and choosing to make their big day more personal and unconventional. From themed dress codes and intimate destination ceremonies to live music gigs, curated experiences, intimate guest lists and personalised rituals, weddings are becoming an extension of the couple’s personalities and interests.
