Each kalira has a blessing embossed onto it – words like love, joy, and magic. As my family and closest friends tied them onto my wrists, they were wishing those blessings upon me. And that’s my favourite part of this tradition: when a kalira falls on someone, it’s my turn to wish those very same blessings for them. A beautiful reminder that love is meant to be shared and passed on.”While one picture showed Anshula, Arjun, Janhvi, and Khushi with their father, Boney Kapoor, a few others featured her enjoying the festivities with her friends, including actor Shanaya Kapoor and social media personality Orry. One of the photos even captured her crying as she hugged Arjun Kapoor.
