Ever since one of India’s most eligible bachelors (and may we say hot?!) broke the news of the woman in his life, we bet if anyone was truly able to keep calm, not us for sure! After some brief periods of speculation that was quickly followed by an intimate engagement ceremony, Rana Daggubatti chose to tie the knot with his ladylove, Miheeka Bajaj who belongs to one of Hyderabad’s most illustrious families and is an interior designer herself who owns the Hyderabad based design and event management company Dewdrop Design Studio.
As love transcends beyond the ideas of pandemic, lockdown and quarantine, both these well-established lovebirds decided to walk down the aisle in a rather private, close-knit setup in their city. We’re certain none would have imagined that this is how things would pan out, not even them, their wedding pictures are proof enough to show that all that really matters is the willingness to unite in the sacrament of marriage with the love and blessings of the closest ones!
We’ve decided to take you on a journey that captures just this- right from their engagement to their d-day. Let’s begin!
The Elegant Lockdown Engagement Ceremony
While most places were under a nationwide lockdown, there was something special about the air of Jubilee Hills this May. It was brimming with pomp and joy and the Daggubati household were all geared to make it ‘official’ and welcome a new member into their family. In a rather intimate backyard setting, Rana and Miheeka got engaged in the presence of their families. Rana opted for a simple and super traditional outfit for the event consisting of a white shirt and mundu while Miheeka shone bright in an orange and pink Kanjeevaram saree. She completed her look with her home brand- Krsala’s statement jewellery set. These stunning pictures are proof of the lovely time they had ringing in their memorable moments!
Miheeka’s Pretty Pre-Wedding Event
Celebrations continued in the Bajaj household as they hosted a lovely pre-wedding ceremony for Miheeka in June. And we must say this beauty had already started giving us major goals even before she officiated to become a bride! Her breathtaking look in a couture Jayanti Reddy lehenga for the event does all the talking. She paired this with a Krsala mala encrusted with polki, rubies and pink tourmalines along with an elegantly crafted jadau maang tikka!
That Happening Haldi Ceremony
So what if it’s a lockdown wedding?! When Bhallaldeva decided to get hitched he did it in style! Rana and Miheeka’s haldi ceremony was simple and yet brimming with so much fun and festivity. Miheeka looked straight out of a dream in her bright yellow Anand Kabra lehenga which she cleverly paired with her stunning seashells jewellery. The soon-to-be-groom kept it sobre in a traditional shirt and mundu outfit.
Magical Mehendi Moments
Everything about Rana Daggubati and Miheeka Bajaj’s mehendi ceremony was vibrant! The decor was thoroughly picturesque and made for the perfect background. Needless to say the bride and groom looked a million bucks. Miheeka redefined stunning in her eclectic pink Arpita Mehta lehenga-jacket. She wore this with a custom made Krsala maang tikka encrusted with polkis and pearls and earrings made of Russian emeralds! The ever dapper hunk chose to step out in a beige kurta which he paired with a Nehru jacket and crisp trousers.
The Wondrous Lockdown Wedding Day
And finally, come August 8th, this gorgeous couple got married in a traditional ceremony at Hyderabad’s Ramanaidu Studio in the presence of close family and friends. They opted for a bio-secure ceremony with a tight guestlist. Miheeka left all thoroughly speechless as she chose to be an Anamika Khanna bride in a dazzling ivory chikankari gown with gold metalwork and zardosi. It was Krsala’s exquisite diamond jewellery all the way for the bride on her big day! Rana looked no less in gold kurta with a light gold pancha. He completed his look with a golden stole!
