Amidst the scenic beauty of Sri Lanka, the enchanting actress Shalani Tharaka & Nihatha recently took part in a pre-wedding photoshoot that showcased the elegance of Sri Lankan Hindu wedding attire. Their choice of dress, a radiant red saree with intricate golden embroidery and beadwork, was nothing short of breathtaking. This vibrant combination perfectly encapsulates the essence of Sri Lanka’s rich cultural tapestry.
In stills captured, the saree’s mesmerizing detailing, possibly crafted in zari or fine threadwork, becomes the focal point. Complementing the saree’s opulent colour palette, Shalani and Nihatha donned green and gold chandelier earrings, a matching necklace, and a stack of bangles. Every piece of jewellery chosen boasts a traditional design, highlighting the profound connection between the island nation’s artistic heritage and its present-day fashion sensibilities. To complete their look, voluminous curly hair adorned with white floral accessories added an ethereal touch akin to the serene landscapes of Sri Lanka.
Behind the camera, the team from “Dark Room” worked magic to bring out the magnificence of the ensemble and the inherent beauty of the actresses. The makeup and hair, gracefully executed by Danushka of Shimmer and Salon LIYO, accentuated their radiant faces. Special mentions go to “ZeeL Sarees” for providing the stunning saree and “Walk To Glow” for the elegant footwear. The result was a harmonious blend of tradition, style, and the unique beauty of Sri Lankan culture.
