The couple seems to have to taken an oath about not letting the pandemic dampen their spirits. The couple have kickstarted their wedding festivities with a ceremony known as Chiksa. The ritualistic ceremony, prior to the wedding, involves turmeric being applied to the bride and groom to ward off the evil eye.

Khan, who is known for her heightened fashion sense, hasn’t gone wrong with her sartorial choice for the Chiksa ceremony. To reflect their mood, the elated couple wore a pair of sunny yellow ensemble. Her fashion game was on-point as Khan poured herself into a shimmery long skirt and blouse, stocked at Maayera Jaipur. She teamed her outfit with a yellow organza stole with mirror work and floral embroidery.

It was clear that the Chiksa was less formal and a laidback affair than the ceremonies that will follow. Her choice of accessories – floral jewellery and earrings – reflected her casual, yet festive vibe.

While Khan is more famous out of the two, Darbar has his own devoted social media following and is an influencer. He’s also an actor-dancer. The two met when Khan was making a TikTok video and they hit it off immediately. Before they decided to get married, they have constantly updated their fans about their close bond. The two have posted several dance videos to underline their friendship and bond.
