Last month, actress Karishma Tanna shared that she is expecting her first child with her husband, businessman Varun Bangera. The couple took to social media earlier today to share some posts from their traditional godh bharai (baby shower) ceremony.
The Ceremony
The first video posted by Karishma Tanna showed the couple surrounded by friends and family, and it was a musical evening indeed. They were seen crooning to 'Har Har Mahadev' chants and smiling ear to ear.
In the second video shared, Karishma Tanna looked radiant in a gold-and-cream saree as she wrote about the beautiful Tulu rituals and sacred traditions of a South Indian godh bharai that made this milestone so memorable.
She wrote, "Still soaking in the love, blessings, and emotions from our very first South Indian-style Godh Bharai together. Witnessing the beautiful Tulu rituals, sacred traditions, mantras, flowers, sarees, and every little custom so closely felt truly magical... almost like living a dream we had only imagined."
"From the poojas and family blessings to the warmth and love in every ritual, the entire day felt so pure, emotional, and deeply special for both of us and our little baby. A dream come true in the most beautiful, traditional way. Our hearts are full. Feeling deeply grateful, protected, pampered, and surrounded by love as we step into this beautiful new chapter together," added the actress.
