Nupur Sanon looked glowing through her wedding celebrations, and honestly, it showed in every photo. She married musician Stebin Ben in a grand Udaipur wedding earlier this month, but what people connected with most wasn’t just the scale of it all. It was the feeling. The moments she shared online felt warm and real – happy tears, soft smiles, the kind you don’t fake.What really makes the wedding photos linger is the care she put into her bridal looks. For the Hindu ceremony, Nupur wore a coral-to-red ombré lehenga by Manish Malhotra. It felt festive, classic, and still a little unexpected. The layered dupattas and fine embroidery added drama, but nothing felt too much. You could see the craft, but you could also see her.
But the heart of the look was in the details. Nupur didn’t treat her lehenga like just another designer outfit. She let it carry meaning. One of her dupattas had a line embroidered in Malayalam, a gentle nod to Stebin’s Malayali Christian roots. It read, “നിൻ്റെ കൂടെ ഞാൻ എപ്പോഴും ഉണ്ടാവും” – “I will always be with you.” Simple words. Big feeling. It felt like a promise whispered, not announced.And then there was more. On her lehenga, she added a Punjabi line written in Devanagari: “Tu mere kal da sukoon, te ajj da shukar.” In English, it means, “You are the peace of my tomorrow and the gratitude of my today.” It spoke of her own roots, her emotions, her voice. Nothing performative. Just honest.
So while the wedding had all the grandeur you’d expect, it was these quiet, thoughtful touches that stayed with people. The Malayalam. The Punjabi. Two cultures stitched into one story. Nupur Sanon’s bridal look wasn’t just beautiful to look at – it felt lived-in, personal, and full of love. And that’s what made it unforgettable.
