Khushiyon ka nyota, dil se.
LET THE CELEBRATIONS BEGIN
A small ritual before the card opens. Tap a phone to watch.
Lifafa
A sealed envelope, your initials in wax. The card rises out.
Sona Patra
A letterpress card in gold foil: tilt and it catches the light, then the press stamps your guest's name.
Darwaza
A brass seal turns and the palace doors swing open.
Mayur
Stroke the peacock: he raises his train, fans it out and shimmers in the monsoon dusk, then your names are written in gold.
Resham
Untie the silk bow and the folded letter opens.
Phoolon ki Barsaat
Tap the marigold: a shower of genda and mogra, then the card.
Aatishbazi
Light the rocket: fireworks in your colours, your initials in the sky.
Shaadi Call
An incoming call from the two of you. Slide to answer.
Shaadi ki Gaadi
Your flower-decked Ambassador drives to the wedding gate.
Mehndi mein Naam
Swipe the palm: the mehndi dries and your names glow out of it.
Diya Jalao
Hold the wick: one diya catches, then the whole courtyard.
Pehla Nyota
The first card goes to Ganpati: akshat, the bell, then your card is brought to the guest.
Nariyal
Strike the coconut on the stone: it cracks, splits, the shankh sounds and your names are written in kumkum.
