Raksha Bandhan brings sibling bonds and a fashion opportunity to adorn your hands with beautiful mehendi. These four celebrity-inspired designs offer elegant, festive looks that range from minimalist to bold and expressive.
Aneet Padda’s Bracelet‑Style Wrist Design
Aneet Padda chose an understated yet chic look: a bracelet‑style mehendi pattern encircling the wrist, a pentagon motif on the back of the palm, flanked by two simple triangles.
Tara Sutaria’s Circular Palm with Finger Accents
Tara’s mehendi is centered around a large circular pattern on the palm, filled with delicate detailing. Each ten finger carries its design, harmonizing with the central circle for a balanced and refined aesthetic. The final look is traditional yet restrained — perfect for someone who values symmetry and minimalism in mehendi
Sara Ali Khan’s Full-Hand Storytelling Design
Making a statement, Sara Ali Khan embraced a full-hand mehendi look that includes expressive icons: “Jai Bholenath” inked in a stylized script, accompanied by a depiction of Nandi, Lord Shiva’s sacred bull. This design marries devotion and artistry with deep symbolic resonance and detail, making it a unique choice for Raksha Bandhan celebrations
Shanaya Kapoor’s Floral Back‑Palm and Bracelet Motif
Shanaya Kapoor opted for a delicate floral tableau: stylized flowers on the back of the palm, a bloom on the middle finger, with a bracelet-type design flowing at the wrist. The simplicity and placement make it elegant and wearable for everyday festive occasions without appearing overstated
