“ Jeevithamlo pellanedi chaala mukhyam ,” began Rana with a straight face, but broke into a guffaw immediately saying, “What am I talking... how am I qualified to talk about marriage.” At The Hindu office to launch the fifth edition of The Hindu Bridal Mantra magazine last Saturday, Rana Daggubati, despite nursing a severe cold, was in his element fielding questions on marriage and movies.
“My sister got married recently and I was witness to a whole lot of preparations that go into an Indian wedding. I laud The Hindu for bringing out Bridal Mantra that can be good guide to the bride-to-be,” he added.
He appreciated the content of the book while flipping through the pages of the book and pointed out to the men’s section that’s included in the magazine, instantly attracting queries like, would he refer to a book like this while planning his wedding? “Marriage is not even in my mind right now…I don’t know,” dodged one of most eligible bachelors of the Telugu film industry.
“Indian wedding are getting bigger and there’s lot of cultural interchange happening. Sangeeth and mehendi are now part of Telugu weddings as well. All this give scope to big time planning,” he added.
The fifth edition of The Hindu Bridal Mantra featured actor Esha Gupta on the cover in a stunning Manish Malhotra lehenga and Anita Dongre choli .
