POV : Our First Diwali as Husband & Wife 🫶🏼
No Grand celebrations, No pattu podavais, No 2000 wala Saram. No Diwali parties but a day full of Gratitude, love and blessings. 🫶🏼💫
From waking up to the sounds of birds to oil baths, pooja, rituals, Amma appa aasirvaatham, oru cute outfit check, our fav veetu breakfast Idly Karikolambu, and car rides with our fav Harris playlist 🎼 the day started with a happy vibe. 😍
When everyone kept asking about our thala Diwali plans, I legit had no idea except one.
@raja_vetri_prabhu_ RVP has been my light through the darkness and on this first Diwali of ours, we wanted to be that light for someone else. 🫶🏼
“Avanidame Avanidame
enadhu kanavai anuppu” 🥹🎵
Raja has never been used to all these so far, whereas on the other side, I have been part of celebrations like this on festivals. So I made sure, our thala Diwali should be celebrated this way giving Raja a new experience as well.
And after a whole beautiful day we spent, when he posted a story yesterday saying “Thanks for showing me the other side of life and making it so worth it”
this is what he meant, and we know we did the right thing on the right day!
I’ve always been so good with kids but I was a little doubtful whether raja would love this idea or be comfortable around them. 🫂
But seeing him have a great time with these God’s special kids and have a easy and effortless bond with them made me so happy and special that I’ve got a partner who prioritises THIS > over all kinds of celebrations. He once again showed me that I made the right choice by choosing someone who’s going to blindly trust me and our principles forever. >>>
After a hearrtful time with the kids and elders we ended our day with a peaceful kovil darshanam, thanking God for everything he’s bestowed upon us along with a kutty car drive and a kutty night walk. 👫
We still can’t believe how beautifully the day unfolded for us, for our first Diwali together. Thanks to the UNIVERSE. 🧿 Our thala Diwali taught us so many things, and this day will always be a special memory in #RnD ‘s journey!! 🫶🏼

Hands down the best Diwali ever. 🫶🏼 So happy. So contented. And so grateful for every moment of this day, and this PICTURE 📸 we took right now at 8.30pm, with heartfelt smile on our faces reflects how peaceful and beautiful this day was to us! 🥹
This whole day made us realize how blessed we are and how much unconditional love is surrounded around us!
Can’t wait to tell you guys how beautifully the day unfolded for us. THANKS TO THE UNIVERSE. 🧿
Hope you all had an amazing day too! Happy Diwali! May you keep finding light over darkness.💫
வாழ்த்திய அனைத்து நல்ல உள்ளங்களுக்கும் இனிய தீபாவளி நல்வாழ்த்துக்கள்! ❤️

POV: Some main character energy in a pavadai daavani ✨ ft @aneeqaofficial
Wearing a super cute Paavadai Daavani set, running and twirling around the whole day from one corner of the house to another, and feeling the heroine vibes is something every girl can relate to! What daa girls crct thaan ah? I always believe that there is something so beautiful about our traditional outfits and it brings out the most feminine side of a girl.
One such azhagu traditional outfit is this Lehenga set from @aneeqaofficial 💛
A pure pattu mangalgiri lehenga in a pleasant peach colour with a bright chinnon lemon yellow dupatta that has butti embroidery all over. The combination of pastels and bright colours can never go wrong and that too in a beautiful lehenga like this, Never!!
I bought this set for one of the important scenes for KKK (Hope y’all know which scene it is. Hehe🙈) and received a lot of compliments for Abi and your D thought why not use it for Diwali as well. Epuuddiiii?😌 This set is perfect for Diwali morning pooja and temple visits. Drape the lehenga, pair it with a jumkha and bangles and you’ll look like a cute Diwali pattakaa making heads turn wherever you go. ( My personal suggestion: @konikajewellery )
This outfit is totally customizable in any pattern you wish and you can also customize family coordinated outfits. So cool laa? The set is priced around 5k which is totally worth it because you can style the skirt, blouse, and dupatta separately in many ways and you can easily restyle and rewear it for many occasions 😉
You all would have seen how Abi styled this outfit for the KKK episode, but how would have D styled this set playing with some Jewellery ? Curious? 💭

2023 has been a year full of surprises, dreams coming true and what not! :’)
And our next goes like this..!
A few days ago when we signed up for @monkentertainment x @youtubeindia session we never imagined for something like this, ever 🥺
Monk-E has brought us some brilliant opportunities and this tops it all. Trust me when I say a casual lunch turned into something so eventful like this!
🥺 WAIT . WHAT. ?
Yes, we were called into the OG Meta office that was a dream building in real life and guess what happened next?
Your girl “D” was asked by them to open her “Threads” account sitting right along with their top executives and it just took me 7 years back where a simple college girl opened her Instagram account casually to today! 🥹
Just living life’s biggest dreams, personally & professionally because of you all. So if you’re reading this know that I love you, I’m so grateful 🫡 and I won’t take you for granted. ♥️
The whole experience has been extremely surreal and I am going to talk more and more about it in the coming days!
Until then, stay tuned!

Black Saree – A Timeless Classic🖤 ft @bespoke.dhishya ✨
The moment I came to know that we were nominated for the She Awards, I knew I should look great on the day, no matter if we won the black lady or not. The first person I called was Pavi @artra_styling , (she was the one who did our engagement styling) and when I told her about the award nominations she was more excited than us and was in full swing to make me look my best on our big day.
Pavi suggested a black saree look to keep the simple and ethnic girl-next-door vibe ON and to match the aesthetic of the award- the black lady. We were searching for a lot of options and the one look that grabbed our attention in an instant and made us head over heels in love was this black sequin saree from @bespoke.dhishya 🖤 It looked perfect for an award show and I’m sure I’d restyle it for my cousin’s or friend’s reception too. ( Receptions and Black! Hehe. 🙈 iykyk) For the blouse we decided to go classic with full sleeves and a boat neck and team @d.sign.d were sweet enough to do it in the last minute for us with full embroidery and perfectly delivered it in no time. 101 reasons why I go back to them, again and again ✅
To keep the attention on the saree, Pavi suggested only a white stoned flower motif designed ring and earring from @aaranyarentaljewellery and it was just perfect! 💎
We wanted to keep the makeup & hairdo minimum and @athmika_makeupstories gave a subtle look just like how I wanted and @priyaprabu_artistry did a super cute ponytail that elevated the whole look beautifully. When I stepped out of my room all dolled up, Amma was so stunned looking at me and loved the whole look. Enna thaan veliya 1000 peru sonnalum, Amma solra “Azhagaa irukaa dii” is always special laa?🥹
We quickaahh went to the terrace and clicked some beautiful pictures before we went to the event. And that night we were back home with the Black Lady on our hands. Always grateful for that night and the love I received 🖤
But now looking at the pictures makes me think this would be a classy look for a Diwali evening party. 🔥 #DiwaliwithD (8/10) What say guys?🌝

“Straight outta magazine!” 🙈
Elegant Jewellery that indeed spoke grace & charm! Ft. @konikajewellery ✨
When I draped this lehenga set for KKK and styled it for Abi, I in fact began wondering how would D carry this outfit if given a choice. Next minute I knew I’d wear it for a special occasion and what better than #RnD Thala Diwali? 🫶🏼
The outfit radiated both traditional and modern touch with pastel colours and temple borders in the skirt and blouse. To elevate the traditional side of the outfit, we decided to go for a heritage jewellery.
That’s when we came across this grand heritage chocker and a matching jumkha from @konikajewellery 💫 It is surely a kind of jewellery that attracts everyone’s eyes and difficult to not have it.
Deeiii bride-to-be take notes daaw, if you’re looking for a jewel set that gives you a classy bride look, then this is it. Gold, kundans, with white & pink stone easily gives you a royal look in a giffy! ❤️
To complete the look, we went for a subtle makeup with a sleek hair bun, malli poo, kutty pottu and of course my forehead kungumam. Orey the penmai feels hehe🙈
How much will you guys rate this look? 💭

A press feature! 🤩 I don’t know if there’s anything better than this, for our first diwali, together! 🫶🏼❤️
Your #RnD got featured in Times of India @chennaitimestoi for our thala Diwali, and it was a kutty-dream come true moment for both of us. And getting to celebrate this milestone on this special day with my Deepsuuu makes it extra special and memorable for me!! 😁
And sharing an article space with @dheena_offl Anna, someone who I look up to so much in my career, feels like an honor and makes my heart warm!
( PS: also I meant, celebrating thala Diwali has always been a fantasy and dream for me, and it has come true with my lifetime best friend Deepsuu🙈 )
So If any of you buy the Times of India newspaper at your home, please share pictures with us. It would make our day 100 times better. Will you?🥹
