As posted by the designer on his Instagram account, Parineeti’s grandmother’s traditional keychain was a key part of the ensemble on the actress’ D-day. Manish Malhotra captioned the post, “Some details make all the difference. I remember discussing the lehenga design with Parineeti Chopra, who mentioned adding her Nani’s challa (traditional keychain) to it! She wanted to pay a heartfelt tribute to her nani, who used to wear the same challa in her saree with the keys, a symbol of being the lady of the house.”
