Khan adds that she has not had a big celebration as yet, but that she plans to soon. “I am going to celebrate with

The Whimsical Aditi Rao Hydari Talks About Her Search For A Once-In-A-Lifetime Kind Of
Love
In classic hues, opulent silhouettes, and decadent spirit, Aditi Rao Hydari transforms into the
timeless bride.
By Team Brides Today
It is raining and some commotion is at play at The Charcoal Project, a concept store in suburban
Mumbai. The chaos is not unexpected on a monsoon morning and our cover star Aditi Rao Hydari is unaffected by the bustle that surrounds her. In a summery red dress and dad-core
white sneakers, she hums along to Señorita by Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello. “Music is
something that makes me feel good no matter what,” says the actor with a girl-next-door
demeanour.On set, she is a consummate professional—getting through outfit changes and shots
with ease. And finally, she snuggles into a pile of cushions and talks to Brides Today about her
happy, free spirited, and bohemian heart.
