"Celebrate Your Body On Your Wedding Day"

Even though her parents have the sweetest love story—they met at school, dated only each other, and then married—actor Sanjana Sanghi had never once tried to imagine what her own love story and wedding would be like. Until the pandemic hit the world. A lot of my friends got married at that time and I happened to be part of their planning process,” Sanjana explains. The Covid period was a tough one and people started to think differently about what they wanted from life. And that’s when we all realised that, ultimately, you need only your closest people around you on such a special occasion. Which means the wedding can be celebrated in a way that comes truly from your heart. I felt I collected a lot more memories in these weddings than I did in the grand pre-pandemic weddings which were almost like carnivals.”

SLOW AND STEADY

Having said that, Sanjana is in no way ready to get married herself, though she’s happily taken on the role of bridesmaid at several friends’ weddings this season. The 26-year-old Delhi girl, who made her acting debut asa child artiste with Imtiaz Ali’s Rockstar and then shot into the limelight when she played the lead opposite the late Sushant Singh Rajput in his last film, Dil Bechara, before his tragic death in 2020, is 100 per cent committed to her career at this time. But she loves weddings and will attend one any time when invited.

“AT MY WEDDING, MY FIRST PRIORITY WOULD BE TO CHOOSE A LOOK THAT WILL CELEBRATE MY BODY PERSONALITY. I WOULD DEFINITELY WEAR MY GRANDMOTHER'S BANDHANISAREE FOR ONE FUNCTION." SANJANA SANGHI, ACTOR
