Mandakini and Prakash Amte have been conferred the Ramon Magsaysay Award for Community Leadership, for serving the medical, education and livelihood needs of remote tribal communities in Maharashtra for over 30 years.Prakash Amte and his wife Mandakini, both doctors, have been awarded the prestigious Ramon Magsaysay Award for Community Leadership 2008. The Magsaysay Award, given annually by the government of the Philippines , is considered to be the Asian Nobel.

The Amtes have been working among the Madia Gond tribals in Bhamragarh, in Maharashtra s Gadchiroli district, since the 1970s.

According to the award citation, they were being honoured for their work in enhancing the capacity of the Madia Gonds to adapt positively in todays India , through healing and teaching and other compassionate interventions.Prakash Amte grew up in Anandvan, an ashram and rehabilitation centre for people with leprosy started by his father, the late Baba Amte. In 1974, when Baba Amte wanted to start a new project for the Gonds, Prakash and Mandakini gave up their urban medical practice and moved to the remote tribal area with him.

Madhuri Dixit says it was not demanding to state farewell to fabulousness

2010-12-03T22:15:00.000-08:00

Madhuri Dixit says it was not demanding to state farewell to fabulousness: Her bewitching smile could give Bollywood's young things an inferiority complex, and as she effortlessly moved to the beats of “Ke Sera Sera”, Madhuri Dixit sent young pulses racing and the oldies gasping. For an event that was two hours behind schedule, nobody was complaining.

In Delhi to promote Sony's Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa, where she is one of the three judges, Madhuri descended with starry paraphernalia. Rikku Rakesh Nath, her secretary for 27 years, was making his presence felt and Mickey Contractor was around to keep her make-up fresh as Madhuri charmed the media. In fact, Mickey and Rikku eagerly looked at the LCD monitors of the cameras to gauge the impact madam was making at 43.

Quite a contrast from the homemaker she is in Denver, Colorado! Madhuri says it was not difficult to detach herself from the glamour world. “The credit goes to my upbringing. I was never treated as a star at home. For me acting was just a profession…I was like a working woman who loved to dance and perform in front of the camera. At home my parents never gave me ‘starry' treatment.”

Was it really that easy? “Yes, there is always an exception to the rule!” says Madhuri, confidence glinting in her eyes. Madhuri adds that because of this upbringing, she always wanted to ensure the man in her life should not be overawed by her status as a Bollywood star. “I wanted him to love me as a person. And Shriram turned out to be that person. Being from a disciplinarian Marathi family, he had very little clue about cinema. And when I went to the U.S. after marriage I could do things which I hadn't done for years. I could drive down to buy groceries. It was liberating. I still love to drop and pick up my kids.”

A role model for working women? “I am no one to advise working women because of the ‘luxuries' I have, but I strongly feel every working woman should believe in her talent and her family.”

Vanishing purity

She has come back at a time when innocence is vanishing from our screens, every heroine giving the impression she has seen it all, done it all. “It's a reflection of our society. Even the kids seem to know everything. You tell them a story of the moon and stars and they will start talking about satellites and galaxies. What was once called fantasy is real today.”

Similarly classical dance, which was once the backbone of Bollywood dance, is on the wane in our cinema. Madhuri, who still practises Kathak as part of her fitness and spiritual regimen, says younger actors don't seem eager to put in the effort required to master the classical art forms. “You can't learn Kathak overnight, Hip Hop you can.”Isn't she the one who started the trend of raunchy stuff with “Ek Do Teen”, “Dhak Dhak” and “Choli Ke Peeche”?

“But why do you forget that I have done a lot of classical stuff as well? And I was not the first one to dance to westernised songs. Vyjayanthimala did it much before me. ‘Ek Do Teen' was crucial to the story because it was a make or break condition for the character. She had to win crowd support to survive.”

When she came at the time of Aaja Nachle, the press accused her of losing touch with fashion, and one must say her saris still look dated. “But it didn't prevent me from coming again,” Madhuri gets a little caustic.

Was Aaja Nachle's box office performance a reason for this long break?

“See, my kids are still small. I can't take three-four projects at a time. For the last two years I am being pursued for films and reality shows including Jhalak… and I agreed when I watched the original Dancing With The Stars being shot in Los Angeles. The producers have promised that this time they are going to take Jhalak to the same level.”

Rikku says industry people keep on tapping him about her plans and that six-seven scripts are pending for Madhuri's nod. “I keep on sending DVDs to the States so that she could understand the changing trends.”

But Madhuri says she gets very little free time. “I have seen Ishqiya only after coming here. I liked Vidya Balan. Then I saw Raajneeti. It has no songs and very little commercial trappings but I have been told it worked well. I am not in a hurry. I will sign only when I get something really different.”

Asin vs Katrina

2010-12-01T23:42:00.001-08:00

Asin vs Katrina: Seems like the musical chairs game has another round with Anurag Basu's Silence leading lady changing once again. With Ranbir Kapoor in front, the film was to have Asin as first and Priyanka Chopra second lead in it but as we know Asin was busy with the Tamil film Kaavalan which gave her no choice but to opt out of the film after which Katrina Kaif stepped into the role.

But it seems that Ms Kaif is not happy with the role of the narrator, in comparison to second lead Priyanka Chopra who plays a mentally challenged character. Moreover there seems to have been no mention of this as reported by sources earlier this year. Whether there is truth to this or there are other reasons is left to be unknown but sources close to the film have told Times of India that was definitely a lot of confusion.

However, things have changed yet again with Asin now back in the same role she walked out of earlier this year. Although she chooses to keep mum about the factor of why, the Ghajini actress states she is definitely a part of the film. She also adds "Let me make it clear that I will never opt out of a film to avoid a co-star. In fact it would be a pleasure to work with Priyanka" when questioned about her exit from the film earlier on and if like Katrina's rumoured reasoning, she too had concerns. Silence is currently in pre production stages and is set to go on the floors early 2011.

2010-12-01T23:35:00.001-08:00

Deepika Padukone act to 'Break Ke Baad': Deepika Padukone has been a roller coaster ride for actress Deepika Padukone.

Freida Pinto: 'Senseless Bollywood' Movies

2010-12-01T23:32:00.001-08:00

Freida Pinto: 'Senseless Bollywood' Movies: Slumdog Millionaire star Freida Pinto has ruled out plans of starring in Bollywood films, as she is more interested in real cinema rather than the song and dance routines. She has been offered several “stereotypical” roles for “a girl from India” ever since she got famous, but she’s adamant about avoiding parts in masala Bollywood movies.

“I wouldn’t want to do a Bollywood film per se, but I would like to do an Indian language film. For some reason I think Bollywood has become synonymous with commercial cinema, which is song and dance and everything that is larger than life. I am interested in the reality,” says the actor, who got herself an agent in Hollywood soon after the response to Danny Boyle’s Oscar-winning Slumdog Millionaire.

The actor also worked with Woody Allen on You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger earlier this year. She adds, “It is great to have entertainment, but I think there needs to be something that also makes you want to go back and think about what you’ve seen.”

The actor, whose last release, Miral, failed to impress critics worldwide, says, “Mindless cinema is not my cup of tea..., I could get into trouble for saying that. I don’t think Bollywood is only mindless cinema, but a lot of films they churn out are not films that I completely enjoy watching.

Priyanka Chopra might be having sleepless nights in Berlin

2010-12-01T23:30:00.000-08:00

Priyanka Chopra might be having sleepless nights in Berlin: where she is presently shooting for Don 2. According to reports doing the rounds, the actress is being haunted by a ghost from her past. Well, not literally, but a certain Prakash Jaju has returned back to Priyanka Chopra’s life. For the uninitiated, Prakash Jaju was the actress’ secretary once upon a time. He was sacked by Priyanka Chopra when she caught him sending her lecherous text messages and was handed over to the police officials in Mumbai. But now that his arrest period is over, Prakash Jaju has resurfaced in Priyanka Chopra’s life.

The ex-secretary is reportedly promoting the career of Meera Chopra, Priyanka Chopra’s distant cousin. And though the Bollywood actress is very disturbed over the fact, she cannot really do anything about it, because though the court orders Prakash Jaju to stay away from her family, nothing has been mentioned about her extended family in the legal notice. What comes across as more troubling news to Priyanka Chopra is the fact that Meera has gone on record saying that she does not find anything wrong in Prakash Jaju’s character and she is prepared to work with him because the man may bring her some good offers from Bollywood. Meera Chopra is all set to debut in Bollywood next year and it is to be seen whether Prakash Jaju can create the same magic with her as he did with Priyanka Chopra.

According to reports in the media, Vidya Balan presented the entire team of 'Kahaani', a variety of gifts ranging from artifacts to chocolates. And what made the 'Kahaani' crew happiest was the fact that their favourite actress chose the gifts that she gave them herself. Following on the footsteps of Vidya Balan is fellow actress Katrina Kaif who has also lavished gifts on the crew members of her latest project. Some even claim that she went about giving gift vouchers to the spot boys,

Priyanka Chopra is on a high these days with having a spectacular 2009 with quite a few hits and many awards. Though her ‘Pyaar Impossible’ bombed at the box office, its failure did not deter the actress in any way. She is not set to play a unique role in ‘Saat Khoon Maaf’ where she will be seen with seven husbands. While Naseeruddin Shah will be her oldest husband, Neil Nitin Mukesh will play the youngest husband and is apparently quite excited and keen about the role.

He said, “When I heard the script, I was zapped. This was something I had to do. I play one of Priyanka’s husbands, the youngest of the lot. The fact that I get to be in the same film as actors like Naseeruddin Shah and Mohanlalji was incentive enough.”

“I’ve a somewhat crowded date diary this year. I join Abbas-Mustan from June to December for Italian Job,” he added.

Neil has recently shifted to Powai so that he is close to Yash Raj Studios and saves the commuting time owing to heavy traffic.

“The traffic on that side of town is just as bad. It’s excruciating to travel even from Powai to Yash Raj Studios. On Thursday I had a day off and I invited my mom over to do up my new home the way I wanted it,” Neil explains.

Music launch of ‘Karthik Calling Karthik’

2010-03-17T04:53:00.002-07:00

Talking about the music of the film, Farhan said, “Shankar Ehsaan Loy could never manage to disappoint anyone with their music. Honestly, Karthik Calling Karthik has some of the best songs heard. I hope everyone will like it as me.”

Explaining the reason for not having sung himself for any song in the film, Farhan said, “There was no need for me to sing in this film since my character didn’t required to. Karthik doesn’t even talk much in the film so if I start singing, it would look out of character. Even in Luck By Chance I didn’t sing. In Rock On, singing was an integral part of the performance. So it depends on the film.”

Talking about the film and its making, Director Vijay Lalwani said, “This is my first film and I desperately wanted to get the film made. So honestly, I never thought whom to cast as Karthik. For me, Karthik was the main character in my story. When we started our company Magic Beans, Amit and I thought why not try Excel out. I narrated the script to Farhan and he was on. Even Deepika said yes to it, which was surprising. So everything fell into place.”

Not only her parents, but her fans too are overjoyed at her achievement. In fact, a Delhi-based fan of hers, Sameer, sent her a huge gift hamper to congratulate her for her National Award win. The hamper contained three boxes – one that had 22 wine bottles, one with 22 cakes of different types and sizes, and one with 22 accessories like earrings, bangles, bracelets, etc.

Attached to the gift hamper was a note from the fan which read, “22 because you are 22-year-old and a National Award is no mean achievement at such a young age.”

Marriage makes Esha Koppikar worried about her hot scenes in ‘Right Yaaa Worng’

2010-03-17T04:45:00.001-07:00

Eesha Koppikar has given quite a few sizzling hot scenes in her forthcoming ‘Right Yaaa Wrong’ and the actress was quite worried about the scenes before her marriage. After all she is now the bahu of a traditional family.

The film has Eesha playing the role of Anshita, Sunny Deol’s wife. Deol plays a cop and Eesha an interior designer who is a modern and independent woman. Eesha apparently plays a cheating wife who has a torrid, sexual affair on the side with newcomer Aarav Chowdhary as well.

Filmmaker Subhash Ghai is all praises for Eesha’s performance in the movie and says, “Eesha’s not only hot as ever in the film, she’s cool as an actress too.”

Newcomer Aarav was very nervous while shooting the lovemaking scene with Eesha. It took quite a few rehearsals and also some encouragement from Essha to help Aarav get over his inhibitions.

“It was a very nervous feeling to make love to Isha in the film. We had to do many rehearsals before canning the act. The seductiveness of Isha is quite palpable in the bath tub scene. Moreover, the fact that I was a relative newcomer in front of Isha made it all the more difficult for me to enact the scene. Finally, after many rehearsals and some good encouragement from Isha, we have performed some of the best love scenes ever performed on the big screen,” says Aarav.

The chief guest of the evening was Bollywood funnyman Cyrus Broacha, who was awarded the Cyrus Broacha Memorial Award. “It’s great. I’m thrilled. I hope to win this award every year,” Cyrus said.

Filmmaker Madhur Bhandarkar won the “Bas Kijiye Bahut Ho Gaya (Please stop its Enough) Award”!, asking him to stop making films.

Beautiful Aishwarya at the audio launch of ‘Rettachuzi’

2010-03-17T04:35:00.000-07:00

It is not very common to see the Bachchan Bahu at the audio release of a film. But the occasion was special here as it was the audio launch of Tamil film “Rettachuzhi” produced by Shankar, who is directing her in “Endhiran: The Robot”.

Aishwarya looked ravishing as ever in a white saree at Sathyam Cinemas Monday evening.

“When we explained to her the significance of ‘Rettachuzhi’ and the cast of the film, she immediately agreed. It’s not just her beauty but her commitment towards her profession, which has made her a great actress,” said Shankar who was obviously thrilled to have her at the occasion.

Ash released the audio cassettes and CDs of “Rettachuzhi” which were accepted by noted lyricist Vairamuthu. Ash had once been described by Vairamuthu as a “Taj Mahal weighing 50 kilograms” in one of his lyrics for the film “Jeans”.

The fans were elated when Ash spoke in fluent Tamil and later switched backed to English.

“It’s an honour for me to have been present at this place among legends like Balachander and Bharathiraaja and I feel proud about it. I also feel happy that a woman is treated so respectfully at a public function like this,” she said.

“I can never forget the Tamil film industry and director Shankar in my life. Shankar’s ‘Jeans’ was my first successful film. The many things I learnt during the making of the film gave me enough self-confidence that I could continue to act for a few more years.

“I feel even more proud to be part of Shankar’s ‘Endhiran’ opposite superstar Rajnikanth…I watched a few songs and some sequences from ‘Rettachuzhi’…I think Karthick Raaja’s music and tunes are excellent. I would surely watch the film in future,” she added.

Silk Saris-Sarees

Silk, the queen of textiles dominates the textile industry with its luster, sensuousness and glamour. The history of silk, goes back to 4,500 years. India is the second largest producer of silk, contributing to about 18 per cent of the world production.

RINGs

2010-03-11T03:49:00.000-08:00

RING
In Western tradition, an engagement ring is a ring worn by a woman indicating her engagement to be married. Conventionally, the ring is presented as a betrothal gift by a man to his prospective bride while he proposes marriage or directly after she accepts his marriage proposal. It represents a formal agreement to future marriage.
In some countries, such as the United States and the United Kingdom, it is worn on the left-hand ring finger, while in other countries, such as Poland and Ukraine, it is customary for the ring to be worn on the right-hand. Similar traditions purportedly date to classical times, dating back from an early usage reportedly referring to the fourth finger of the left hand as containing the vena amoris or "vein of love".

In the United States and Canada today it is becoming more common, but still rare, that a woman will also buy her partner an engagement ring at the time of the engagement. These may be called male engagement rings or man-agement rings, which is a portmanteau of "man" and "engagement ring". This practice is more common in other countries.

Before agreeing to marry, a couple may choose to buy and wear pre-engagement rings, also called promise rings. After marrying, the couple may wear both engagement rings and wedding rings, or just their wedding rings, as they prefer.

Styles
This wedding set contains two separate rings, either of which could be worn separately. This wedding set contains two separate rings that look incomplete separately.
Most engagement rings, like any other kind of jewelry, can be classified according to their style. Since the middle of the 20th century, diamonds have widely featured in engagement rings. Solitaire rings have one single diamond. These traditional engagement rings may have different prong settings and bands. Another major category is engagement rings with side stones. Rings with a larger diamond set in the middle and smaller diamonds on the side fit under this category. Three-stone diamond engagement rings, sometimes called trinity rings or trilogy rings, are rings with three matching diamonds set horizontally in a row with the bigger stone in the center. The three diamonds on the ring are typically said to represent the couple's past, present, and future, but other people give religious significance to the arrangement. A wedding set, or bridal set, includes an engagement ring and a wedding band that match as a set. In some cases, the engagement ring looks "incomplete"; it is only when the two halves are assembled that the ring looks whole. In other cases, a wedding set consists of two rings that match stylistically and are worn stacked, although either piece would look appropriate as a separate ring. Although the wedding band is not to be worn until the wedding day, the two rings are usually sold together as a wedding set. After the wedding, the bride may choose to have the two pieces welded together, to increase convenience and reduce the likelihood of losing one ring.

Thinking about getting a tattoo?

The ancient Indian art of mehndi is a great alternative to permanent ink that's needle-punched into your skin. Mehndi artists use a paste made from the henna plant to draw intricate designs on the body that are ultra-feminine and filled with mystery — and they're temporary.

When you want a tattoo and your parents say "No way," henna is a perfect compromise it's beautiful, it's temporary, it's safe, and it's way in.
All kinds of people who like body art (but don't want a permanent tattoo) are decorating with henna, a plant-based dye native to Asia and Africa.

The henna tradition is thousands of years old; all over Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa, henna is used to celebrate (weddings and rites-of-passage in India and Pakistan), to meditate (martial arts students in Thailand), and for everyday beauty (hands, faces and feet in North Africa).

The henna tradition is thousands of years old; all over Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa, henna is used to celebrate (weddings and rites-of-passage in India and Pakistan), to meditate (martial arts students in Thailand), and for everyday beauty (hands, faces and feet in North Africa).

"In India, henna is a big part of the culture. We do henna for every occasion to bring good fortune, good luck for the house, the people," explains Neeta Singh, a mehndi artist in Talent. "Some people do it on their back and other parts of their body, but it's most customary to apply mehndi on the hands, feet and forearms. It stays longer and looks more beautiful on the palms." Neeta draws the mehndi free hand using a small applicator that paints the henna into paisley, peacocks, flowers and leaves.

Tattoo Removal

Do you regret that ink tattoo you had at some point in the past? You're not alone! The American Academy of Dermatology notes that even though the medicine of tattoo removal has improved, it's still expensive and time-consuming, and the results may not be entirely satisfactory. Dermatology and Laser Associates of Medford uses advanced laser technologies to remove cosmetic tattoos without scarring. You'll need between 3 and 30 treatments at $360 per treatment to remove your tattoo. Red and multi-colored tattoos are more difficult to treat, while amateur and black tattoos are more easily removed.
Perhaps best known as part of a traditional Indian wedding, the bride and her family and friends throw a mehndi party and are decorated with symbolic designs. "The deeper and darker the henna stains, the more likely it is that the mother-in-law will love the new daughter-in-law, and the marriage will be happy."
Here in Southern Oregon, Neeta does henna for weddings, but you'll also find her and other mehndi artists at street fairs, baby showers, birthday parties and women's events. It was at the Talent Harvest Festival last fall where Christina Hartwell met Neeta, and arranged for Neeta to do henna at her daughter's baby shower.
"I wanted it to be a really special celebration for Jeanette," Christina says. "When you're pregnant you tend to not feel, you know"¦ This was a celebration of her stomach." Hugely pregnant at seven months, Jeanette loved it. "The design enhanced the size of my stomach, it was a flower around my belly button and swelled out, a traditional henna design," she remembers. "We did it for the sheer fun of it, for the beauty."

Mehndi costs between $10 and $25, and takes 15 minutes to an hour and a half depending on the complexity of the design. A party of six will run about $125 to $150. The longer the henna stays on the skin, the darker the design will stain, so let the original henna designs stay on the skin for as long as possible by keeping it dry and intact for about 12 hours. Mehndi will last for two to three weeks, and then gradually fade.
Last summer Alissa Rae, who teaches at Ashland Pilates Center, discovered Neeta at a Jackson WellSprings festival. "Neeta did the whole top of my foot, down onto my toes because I was wearing sandals," Alissa says. "She took what seemed like mud and turned it into what looked like a quilt. I was dumbstruck; it almost vibrated, it was so neat." In the weeks to come, Alissa smiled inside every time she saw her foot, thinking it was intriguingly beautiful in the perfect Pilates movement.
Later Alissa watched Neeta draw henna on a client's hand, filling the palm and back of the whole hand in honor of the client's birthday. Neeta didn't say much, just listened and the mehndi session became an almost spiritual experience, woman to woman. "We talked about what she wanted for her birthday, what she wanted for her year," recalls Alissa. "It was like setting her intentions for the year in a way that wasn't revealing or vulnerable, just really sweet and meaningful."
Mehndi allows you to make just another day into a day to remember, to celebrate special occasions, or just celebrate yourself.
"Henna makes me feel really good, it's almost like being anointed," Alissa explains. "Like I am honoring a part of myself, revealing a part of me, finding a beautiful part of myself. It signifies to me inner strength, part of that femininity, that honoring."

How to Create Mehndi Tattoos

How to Create Mehndi Tattoos

Mehndi, or henna tattoos, is a Hindu art that forms an intricate design most commonly on the feet and palms of the hand. Most commonly used during Hindu weddings, Mehndi is thought to bring good luck and fortune to the wearer.

Not only is Mehndi a beautiful art growing in popularity, the henna used is said to create a "cooling" effect that stimulates the nerve endings. With a few steps, you can create your own Mehndi tattoos for any occasion.

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

* Henna leaves or powder
* Strainer or flour sifter
* Mustard oil
* Tea
* Parchment cone (for cake decorating)
* Toothpick
* Cotton balls
* Sugar
* Lemon juice

Step 1

Prepare the henna paste that you will use for your Mehndi tattoo by first sifting any debris from the leaves with a kitchen strainer or flour sifter. Crush the leaves into a fine powder and add 1 tsp. of mustard oil for every 3 tbsp. of powder. Add hot tea, any flavor, until the henna forms a thick mud-like consistency. Allow the henna paste to set in a cool dark location for 48 hours before applying.

Step 2

Place the henna paste into a parchment cone and secure the end with a clip or rubber band. Make sure the cone has a very small, fine opening for even application of your Mehndi tattoo design.

Step 3

Squeeze the parchment cone gently and apply the paste to your skin to create the pattern of your Mehndi tattoo. It takes a while for the color to set into the skin, so you may wipe away mistakes in your design with a toothpick if necessary.

Step 4

Keep the area on your skin where you have applied the henna paste as horizontal as possible as the paste dries. The color will set better if you keep the area warm, so sit near a fire or heater.

Step 5

Dip a cotton ball in a 50/50 mixture of sugar and lemon juice and apply it very gently to the paste when it is almost dry. This solution will help the color to darken and set deeper. Keep the henna paste on your skin for at least 4 hours before rinsing with warm water. Your final Mehndi tattoo should last for several weeks.

Weddings in India are considered to be a sacred and sanctified ritual. A typical Indian wedding is 3 days long. Pre-celebrations and post celebrations, talk about a party! The Mehndi is one of the most important and fun pre-wedding rituals. Celebrated by the bride, family and her friends. Different regions of the country celebrate the ritual in a different way according to their own marriage customs, rituals, and culture.

Bridal Heena… Oh its time to enjoy and feel of bridal heena design for the first time. Basically, it is the wonderful and graceful feeling of the bride which is presented on palms of the bride. Today there is a fashion for putting the design on the back of hand. It is important for a bride to have Mehndi on her palms at least. The bride holds a leaf and betel nut in her open palm while the groom puts his hand over hers.

So, it is important for groom’s hand to be covered with Mehndi. Some of the designs which are proper and famous for marriage ceremony have numerous ancient and symbolic associations like the peacock, musical instruments, coconuts, and pictures of a bride and groom.

Mehndi or Henna itself is eco-friendly. It is a natural tattoo paste, made from the roots of the Henna plant. Green Mehndi is ground to a fine paste. Mehndi is symbolically an important part of the Indian wedding. As Mehndi changes its colour from green to orange-red after application, so does a bride flower into her womanhood after marriage.

The ceremony is mostly held at bride's place or sometimes in a banquet hall on the eve of the marriage ceremony or few days before the marriage. On this occasion a professional henna designer or some relative applies mehndi to the bride's hands and feet. There are few places in India where it is a ritual that the first motif of henna or mehndi is applied by the bride's sister-in-law whereas there are some places where the first mehndi motif is said to be auspicious if applied by bride's mother.

The Mehndi or henna motif is not only the adoration of the bride rather it epitomizes her transformation from a virgin girl to a temptress for her husband. As per Kama Sutra, henna is one of the sixty four arts of women. Popular motifs of the bridal mehndi are conchshell, flowers, Kalash, peacock, doli and baraat patterns. The intricate motifs of the bridal henna also hide the husband's name. It is said that the husband's name in the intricate henna motifs is made for the groom who has to find out his name in his bride's mehendi as an evidence of his sharp eyes and active brain to impress his girl.

Mehndi function is usually organized with the sangeet function. So, it has a festive feel to it with the women dancing and singing traditional songs on the mehndi ritual. The bride is dressed in light color clothes with light jewelry. According to the custom the bride must not step out of the house after the mehendi ritual until the wedding day. It is believed that the darker and deeper the henna stains the more the husband and the in-laws will love her bride. The ritual of mehendi signifies the strength and power of love in a marriage so it is regarded good omen for the would-be bride. It is said that the long the bride retains the mehendi, the more auspicious would be her future.
