Masaba Gupta tied the knot with Satyadeep Mishra on January 27, 2023, in an intimate ceremony. Picked from the bridal line of House of Masaba, Gupta’s fashion brand, the barfi pink lehenga featured ‘paan-patti’ embroidered with golden thread.
She styled it with two dupattas – one was a lime green wallflower print dupatta, and the other was a rani pink featuring embroidery and a sequinned border.
She donned it with a multi-tiered necklace, statement earrings, and headgear inspired by a South-Indian wedding trousseau. She styled ‘chaand taara’ (moon and star) as headgear because they symbolise the energy of the sun, which is considered the giver and protector of life.
