Siddharth wears a Sabyasachi silk kurta and a handwoven Benarasi dhoti with a veshti (or mundu) of his own.

The South Indian mundu is a traditional garment worn by men in the southern states of India. It’s essentially a long, rectangular piece of cloth wrapped around the waist and legs. The mundu is typically made of cotton but can also be woven from silk or other fabrics.

There are various styles of mundu, each with its unique features. Some mundus are plain, while others are adorned with intricate patterns and designs. The colour and style of the mundu can vary depending on the occasion and personal preference.

The couple’s caption read, “You are my Sun, my Moon, and all my Stars. To being Pixie Soulmates for eternity. To laughter, to never growing up. To Eternal Love, Light & Magic Mrs & Mr Adu-Siddhu (sic).”

The ceremony seemed to have been held early in the morning, a hallmark of a South Indian wedding, as captured by celebrity photographer Joseph Radhik. The sun began rising, casting a warm glow on the happy couple. Aditi and Siddharth beamed with joy as they posed for the camera.

After dating for several years, the couple announced their engagement earlier this year. Their surprise wedding delighted fans. In an interview with Vogue, Aditi shared the romantic story of Siddharth’s proposal.

“He got down on his knee, and I asked him, ‘Now what have you lost? Whose shoelaces are open?’ He kept saying, ‘Addu, listen to me’. And then he proposed. He said he wanted to bring me to my favourite childhood place, one with my grandmother’s blessings,” she said.
