Hey Lovelies!💕
Are you a Bridgerton fan? Do you also fantasise about a fairylike and a regal wedding? To all the Bridgerton fans out there and the brides-to-be who wish to have a whimsical wedding, Charithra Chandran reveals her standpoint on the Indian customs and traditions that added exemplary diversity to the show.
Speaking of authentic cultural representation in the industry, Chandran shares, “In Bridgerton, we're not showing a full Indian or Hindu wedding. We're showing what these specific characters would be doing. More than anything, it's important to normalize this representation. As people get more accustomed to different cultures, it'll be less of a novelty. It'll just show another way of doing things. So I think what Bridgerton is trying to do is normalize experiences that are different from a lot of other people’s experiences.”
Chandran: “I will have a very traditional Tamil wedding”
Shedding light on her love for Indian weddings, Chandran reveals, “There's a role for every family member in an Indian wedding. There are official and unofficial roles. It's just such an inclusive experience and practice. What Indians really emphasize is that it's a coming together of families. When you get married in India, it's so much more than just the couple. This comes with added pressures, but it's one of the most beautiful aspects. I will have a very traditional Tamil wedding.”
