“Weddings can be anxiety-inducing. Especially if things aren’t in your control and are being orchestrated by the families. This is part of the many little things I did to calm myself down and add a touch of Anjali to each ceremony,” she added on the post.

The Indian Express quoted the mehendi artist – Kamal saying that this was the first time she has done such a unique customised design.

The mehendi artist added that he was aware that the bride needed customised henna for her wedding that involved paintings. He added that Anjali shared the painting references for henna on the wedding day and he made the whole design on the spot. He admitted that this type of henna with world-famous paintings was his first.
