Mehendi artist Veena Nagda reveals Akshay Kumar and Twinkle Khanna’s wedding was a ‘surprise’: ‘She was in a plain dress…’
Akshay Kumar and Twinkle Khanna are known as a popular Bollywood couple. Their wedding in 2001 was a small event with close family and friends. Mehendi artist Veena Nagda recently shared that their wedding was a surprise. She mentioned that Twinkle was initially in simple attire when she arrived.
In a recent interview with Pinkvilla’s Hindi Rush, Veena Nagda talked about Twinkle Khanna’s mehendi. She mentioned, “Twinkle Khanna, when we went in the morning, was sitting in a plain dress.” She revealed that when she showed Twinkle the mehendi designs, Twinkle asked if everyone sat for the mehendi in heavy clothes.
Nagda explained that after she confirmed this, Twinkle got ready and sat for her mehendi for 3 to 4 hours, questioning how people managed to sit for so long.
Veena Nagda further added, “Their wedding was a surprise. When I was booked for the mehendi, I didn’t even know who I was speaking to. They took me from one house to another without informing me. Even the driver didn’t say anything and Dimple Kapadia greeted me at the door.”
She mentioned that she was informed about the morning mehendi and evening wedding plans. Akshay Kumar couldn’t attend due to shooting commitments.
Nagda also recalled a phone call from Twinkle Khanna regarding the mehendi color. She said, “Her call came that ‘Veena ji, very dark color has come.’ Because I said that, ‘mehendi in the morning and wedding in the evening, so I don’t guarantee about color’.”
