With the perfect blend of style and tradition, Naga Chaitanya and Shobhita Dhulipala’s wedding pictures are breaking the internet. The couple got married on December 4 at the famous Annapurna Studios in Hyderabad. And now, as reported by Pinkvilla, sources close to the couple have revealed the significance of Sohita’s bridal mehendi design. While her royal Kanjeevaram wedding saree became the talk of the town, her mehendi design stole the show. According to the source, it was inspired by the rich motifs found in the Madurai temple.
The entire wedding was a tribute to Telugu culture, and her bridal mehendi too was in line with the same. The source revealed that the designs on Shobitha’s palms and feet were inspired by Madurai Meenakshi Amman and Sundareshwar. “The mehendi design created for Sobhita was heavily inspired by the Madurai temple. The motifs were drawn from Madurai Meenakshi Amman and Sundareshwar, especially the Utsava idol. The pattern on the back of the hand was inspired by the beautifully decorated padakkam worn by Goddess Meenakshi ,” he revealed.
While that was the back of his palm, the design on the inside of his palm was the outer pattern of Sundareshwar’s ring, representing the essence of the ‘circle of light’. These intricate designs together represent masculine and feminine energies, symbolizing an eternal bond.
“The design on the inner palm reflected the outer pattern of the Ring of Sundareshwar, also known as the Prabha Mandal, which symbolizes the circle of light. Together, these elements represent the divine union of masculine and feminine energies – Lord Shiva and Shakti – symbolizing their eternal bond through the difficulties of life and their reunion in every age,” the source further explained.
