Engagement and Wedding Style
35
It was a traditional Brahmin wedding for actress Manisha Koirala and Samrat Dahal held in Kathmandu Nepal. The bride wore a traditional red sari with a 3/4th sleeve brocade blouse and the groom a traditional Nepali outfit.
At the engagement ceremony, Manisha looked uber gorgeous in her yellow sari and Samrat looked handsome in a suit with a Nepali topi.
Congratulations to the couple!

Congrats to the lovely couple! She looks gorgeous…lucky man!
manisha looks lovely. it’s nice to see them keep to their traditional outfits. many congratulations to the couple. the groom’s a good handful of years younger. good for her!!
Awww, I LOVE the mustard sari 🙂 Congratulations to both of tem.
Congrats to her !! She looks lovely, was always a favorite from the time I saw her in Bombay (the movie).
Love the yellow saree.
Nepali Brahmin i see! When i read traditional brahmin, i was expecting a pic of Manisha in Madisar to load. HA! Both colors are loud but it looks nice on her.Congrats to the couple.
Love the engagement pics! She looks gorgeous!Congrats to the couple
Awwwww she looks so cute!
Congrats Manisha!
She is glowing… very nice… Congrats to the newly weds…
The face that launched a thousand sighs…..!!She was so fresh in Saudagar and Khamoshi and looks just as pretty now. She looks genuinely happy here and love the mustard sari.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaw manisha! congrats! she looks so pretty!
thank god she kept things traditional and didnt, you know, go all shilpa shetty.
i think im the only who thinks that her dress is rather tacky and bright to make u blind. and whts with grass necklase and the humugous bindi on their heads.
The grass necklace and the humongous bindi on their foreheads might look strange to the uninitiated eyes but they are both important to all traditional Nepali Brahmin weddings.
The humongous bindi is called Tika and is a mixture of abir(a red powder), yoghurt, and grains of rice which Nepalese wear on special (or religious) occasions and it symbolises the third eye, or mind’s eye, that is associated with many Hindu gods and the idea of meditation and spiritual enlightenment.
The green necklace are made of special particular leaves and symbolise good luck in Nepali culture. They are also used in prayers, in a similar manner to how flowers are used at temples. Also, garland made in that manner with those leaves do not get droopy quickly.
no need to make fun of tradition … “grass necklace!!!” maybe u shud do some research on nepalese weddings.
and humungous bindis are back in fashion!
not makin fun here…. just wanted to know why they wore it. i nevr seen anyone wear this before.:)
it’s a tradition, don’t u have one? if u have one then some will find it tacky and strange too. have an open mind
im christian and from south india and no i dont know anyone who dress like this for their wedding. its weird to me cuse i never seen this “tradition” before and thats why i asked.
came to straight line
hahhahahahaha go all shilpa shetty! LOL
Shilpa’s wedding attire was very traditional as well. The jewellery included standard items worn by Bunt brides and also seen in other south Indian weddings. The less said about her reception dress/lehenga whatever it was the better.
I would love to see more of Manisha’s sarees .. hope she wears them again sometime and we get a better view!
But Shilpa was traditional too…your point is?
yup 🙂
manisha is nepali and Shilpa is Indian
her point is, shilpa shetty is all about show off and bling bling bling
The red saree and the traditional stuff that Manisha seems to be wearing in the pic above is not bling bling? Oh come on. Also,It’s not an indian wedding, the weird comparison with a nepali wedding reeks of ignorance.
i also think it is weird to compare. the bling bling in manisha’s sari is what u see in every nepali wedding. i understand the person who talked about shilpa although there was no need to compare. but u don’t seem to get it or refuse to get it. i don’t want to further elaborate on shilpa.
Beautiful couple …many many congratulations
She has such an innocent face.Love her in the mustard saree.Hope to see her continue the cheerful colors for some more time.The prev jeans and white kurta had put me off
She looks so so happy. Congrats to the couple.. nd wish her best of her wedding llife.
The face that launched a thousand sighs…..!!She was so fresh in Saudagar and Khamoshi and looks just as pretty now. She looks genuinely happy here and love the mustard sari.
i feel bad…but I am the only one who thinks she looks old?
congratulations Manisha and Samrat!!..Manisha is glowing with happiness and why not its her big day!Personally i love the traditional touch the wedding has ..from the grooms’ nepali oufit to the “traditional neplai band playing nepali folk songs …that i watched in some video.” And the grass garland is traditional as well..i think ..its considered auspicioius” in nepali wedding.I also liked that actor Jackie shroff wore a traditional nepali “daura suruwal”as it is known in nepal a traditional outfit that nepali men wear.It looks all good although I thought Manisha could have chosen subtle warm colors for her reception party
they look happy 🙂 and thats a good lookin bloke she got there! 🙂 best wishes to the couple.
wow wow wow…….manisha looks very happy.and her husband is good looking too…..Best of luck guys.
