4 Kaleera Designs Inspired By Bollywood Celebrity Weddings

Although traditionally worn only by Punjabi brides, Kaleeras have become a popular accessory for brides of all cultures. The significance of Kaleeras is to wish the bride good luck and to remind her of her family, whom she may leave behind after her marriage. The shape of the Kaleera, which typically resembles a coconut, symbolises abundance in her new home, while the metal symbolises wealth and prosperity. It is believed that catching a piece of the bride's Kaleera brings good luck and signifies that the person who caught it will be the next one to get married. 

The go-to designer for Bollywood brides looking to customise Kaleeras with thoughtful additions is Mrinalini Chandra. Keep reading to know more about 4 Kaleera designs inspired by Bollywood celebrity weddings.
