Reflecting on her elopement with her husband, Mazhar Khan, to Singapore, she said, “My own wedding to the father of my children was a discreet affair. We eloped and got married in Singapore in a low-key ceremony with just two witnesses. But as reserved as I am, I can’t deny the charm and exuberance of the ‘big Indian wedding.’ The food, the music, the colors, the festive atmosphere—it’s infectious. This picture of @zanuski, @carapiranha, and I was taken at a beautiful family celebration in Delhi last week.”

Offering her perspective on the pressure, particularly through social media, to wear in expensive attire, Zeenat shared, “I’ll take this opportunity to let you in on a secret too. Most of the fancy designer outfits I wear on such occasions are borrowed. The jewelry I have on was loaned to me by Vimal from Argentum. And this powder-blue sharara was sent to me by my dear friend Mohini Chabria. It will be dry-cleaned and returned. I’m sharing this because I don’t want young people to feel pressured to buy new outfits or spend beyond their means just because they see celebrities in designer clothes. Whether you borrow, thrift, or buy, what matters is that you don’t break your bank and genuinely enjoy what you wear. And, of course, in my books, comfort is key! In fact, I’ve bid farewell to all my high heels.”
