Can one surpass the brilliance of a Desi bride? We believe not. But does that imply you may show up to your best friend’s, brother’s, or sister’s wedding wearing your wedding jora again, replete with lots of jewelry and makeup? Nope.
Kim Kardashian recently faced backlash on social media for showing up to Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s wedding wearing all red. Online discussions included everything from the pressure to follow the rule that “don’t wear the color the bride is wearing” to the defense that desis are exempt from the norm since it’s “not possible to outshine a desi bride” unless you’re specifically attempting to.
Even though the wedding is long gone, we still thought it was a worthwhile discussion to have. Is it possible to surpass a Desi bride?
