Priyanka Chopra recently took it to her Instagram to share a brand endorsement for a jewellery brand where she talked about wearing mangalsutra as a married woman. Here scroll beneath to know what she said.
She said, “I remember when I wore mine for the first time… because we have grown with the idea of what it means. It was just a very special moment for me. At the same time, as a modern woman, I also understand the repercussions of what it means. Do I like the idea of wearing mangalsutra or is it too patriarchal? But at the same time, I am that generation that’s sort of in the middle. Maintain tradition but know who you are and what you stand for. And we’ll see the next generation of girls might do differently.”
Further mentioning how she is trying to take the traditions forward, she said, “A conversation starter for sure. The beautiful understated @bulgari mangalsutra, designed with love and respect by @lucia_silvestri. Take traditions forward by knowing who and what you stand for… I’m trying and learning every day.” as quoted by Hindustan Times.
