What the Tendulkars wore
The Tendulkar family set a high bar for wedding fashion, opting for a palette that balanced heritage with contemporary chic. Sara Tendulkar, the groom’s sister, was a showstopper in a vibrant, traditional pink saree. Detailed with intricate embroidery and gold thread (zari), she paired the look with a statement maang tikka and heavy necklace and earrings. Her hair was styled in classic soft curls.
Matching her daughter’s grace, Anjali chose a regal pink silk saree for the main ceremony – her rani pink handloom saree featured a heavy gold border with antique work, embodying her penchant for understated luxury. The groom and bride, Arjun and Saaniya, picked red for their wedding, while Sachin sported an embroidered cream sherwani.
