Non Indian bride facing Lehenga challenges, Nazranaa Diaries Season 2 Episode 1 Full Episode - Jamie 

Anushka Manoj Totally Agree!, I am Pakistani and I noticed that different countries has different varieties and less traditional styles , like in the uk you can see girls wearing baby pink and mint for their receptions.

So the red color is like the big white ballgown of western culture? Super traditional?

@@lainie193 LOL it is! Though most indian brides have two dresses, the red one for the traditional ceremony and then another colour or style for their reception, which is often not red and more modern! (often based on their colour scheme for the wedding)

@@lainie193 technical the white dress has only been around since 1840. And only became traditional when white fabric became easy to reproduce. Its not really all that traditional. Instead it more like a fad that's been perpetuated by the media.

I didn't understand why they kept going on about BRIGHT red. The traditional is red. In fact, this dark, velvety color is what many traditional, opulent weddings have. Also, in the traditional section, Manyavar, and other high-end brands, they advertise this color pretty frequently.

@Everything Of Indian Cinema. she ain't wearing black or brown bruh

@Everything Of Indian Cinema. of course it ain't for me. Duh! Hope u have a memorable day.

@Everything Of Indian Cinema. bruh! That's stupid. Stopping bride from wearing what she wants

@Everything Of Indian Cinema. Tbh, My sister wore dark blue lehanga which was absolutely gorgeous. Man, who are you trying to cheat by saying Indians don't approve darker things? get hold of yourself and say it's in your family. My family loves dark colors, even my gran does. Black is a no of course, but there are exceptions when the bride really really likes it. Unless you grew up in a very conservative home, or if you were under the rock for all these years..then of course, maybe that's why you're too rude to someone.

@Everything Of Indian Cinema. And hey, I'm an Indian too. And your last comment is purely offensive to Indians and also to everyone. I'm guessing you just think no Indian is gonna see this and you can rant however you want. Every color is beautiful, it just depends on what the bride likes. Grow up kiddo

It’s about respect for their religion. You have to remember that yes she is the bride, but shes also doing a Sikh Wedding, so her best friend is just looking out for her and doesn’t want the mother to be mad that she isnt wearing a Lehenga that isnt respectfull.

@@Kaiviti_Jonte wow now shades of red has started to be offensive to culture! Like she is not asking for black, she literally asked darker RED

I get so tired of hearing brides say "It's my day" because they sounds so spoiled and self centered. It is NOT just their day as it is the joining of two people and two families together!

@@Lilbitsuite I get your point, there are definitely self-centered brides who use this phrase, BUT this is not what is happening here. She is just reminding that between her, her friend and her mother-in-law, she is the one who is getting married. To her, this wedding is way more important, way more sacred and way more memorable than to women who are trying to pressure her into meeting their demands. So yes, this is her wedding. Not hers alone, but definitely not her bridesmaid's.

@@Lilbitsuite I wish someone would tell me what the hell to wear to my own wedding😒😒😒😒 I'm not marrying the mother in law. The mother in law already had her day, this is the BRIDE'S DAY!!!

One second she wants to be traditional and the next she is sounding like a bridezilla, "It's my wedding," She should NEVER have asked her future MIL what she wanted her to wear if she wasn't going to take her request seriously.

I am seeing that the bridesmaid is also stuck on traditional color so she is set on the brighter one. but the darker red looks so much better with her light complexion. we have to think that a little darker color on light skin will balance out with the lighting.

I agree l really like the darker red on her

She has a cool undertone, a darker colder color would look way better on her.

I think she hates dark red because it is making her look paler. Remember, she is from a country where there is tanorexia, namely tan obsession. In the west, white people pay big money to get tan. They go away to beaches and tan themselves, cheaper than going to beauty salon and pay for using sun beds. Also, they go to hotter countries to get darker tan. When they return home, they show off their tan to friends, relations & neighbours and be boastful about it.

Pink Lady Ah well. The trend to be extremely tanned was more a thing 20 or 30 years ago. That’s when people really went out of their way, to get deeply tanned in summer. Nowadays most people are very much aware, how bad that is for your skin and settle for a light, ‚healthy‘ tan instead. But you also have to consider, that very light skin shows blemishes and vein issues and dark undereye circles and such, so much more than darker skin. Being light skinned and not having perfect skin, really, really sucks.

J R well shit 🤣

lol it seems more like she was afraid of looking like she was copy-cat-ing a recent wedding

J R Haha. True!

Yes, and she hasn't even wear the jewelry and fix her hair yet. That will make the totally look pops more.

😂😂😂😂

Bright Red is for casual wear. The clothes and color that she chose was perfect

Friend is also the mother-in-law's daughter right? She knows her mom. That was one single request her mom-in-law had. And bride also wanted to honour her MIL and keep her happy and literally brought her in to be the voice to show her when she's doing something blasphemous. That's exactly what she was doing! The friend was doing her job! Telling her black is forbidden!

@@dOVERanalyst first of all, it wasn't black and second thing, red is traditional and she chose the color that compliments her and makes her confident. there's nothing wrong in that and it's traditional too. The friend was trying to impose her opinions.

@@sunainanarayan4720 This person really needs help.

@@dOVERanalyst As a proud Indian I am telling you a secret . A proper traditional MIL ( Even the most nosy ones ) have no right to tell the bride what she wears probably because they know that bride will just wear red or yellow. Indian MIL' don't care about designs or any other thing , what they actually care about is the deep red colour and golden platings so the friend was actually lying and trying to force her to wear something that would compliment an Indian ( Brownish Black skin) this was just wrong. Deep red is always considered more traditional.

Me too!

Ha, not Indian inlaws. They only care about getting their way and showing off to their friends.

I mean the bridesmaid would probably know best how the mil would react since it is her aunt

Beckysaurus yes

bell J yup

Songbird Mozlover yup

Called Respect for In-Laws. Don't start out marriage making enemies with In-Laws. She choosing to give up American Wedding for another Religion. Hope it all works out.

On repeat

Yup like a cassette 😒

I think her friend was not bother about tradition, in-laws or bright red.. All she wanted is to washed her skin tone off!

But then friends know things we don’t lolol

I think an aqua colour would of looked stunning on her

I want to wear a dark green and gold wedding dress those are so pretty

You're not Indian enough then. Any orthodox Indian living in India would tell you even a single thread of black on your wedding dress or jewellery is ABSOLUTELY FORBIDDEN. That's downright disrespectful. You'd want to avoid such a dark shade of navy that looks just like black.

@@dOVERanalyst Bro I live in India and I am telling you their is difference between tradition and peer pressure. Yeah I do agree that black is often connected with misfortune and bad happenings but that is in cases where black colour is extremely visible and creating a bad atmosphere.

@@dOVERanalyst But that is because only some specific colours are considered suitable for weddings. Red is considered as the most traditional , beautiful and pure colour and is used most widely. However colour Yellow is also considered very lucky and wealth bringing since it is connected with the Hindi goddess Laxmi ( Goddess of Wealth). Colour like Rose pink, Dark pink, magenta, orange , golden can also be worn during weddings.Little threads and beadings of black won't make a difference but if somehow the bride is wearing a dress with major black highlights then it could be considered bad luck.

@@dOVERanalyst Bro get help

@@shradhathakur8208 The moment you said Hindi goddess 🤣🤣 Your ignorance is alarming. I'm educated in a Vedic school & raised in an orthodox Brahmin family. I am getting married. And for a year, as a bride I've to give up EVERYTHING BLACK. Even the tiniest DOT, the smallest beading, even footwear, literally everything black I own would be gone. And even if you're not that traditional, ATLEAST on the DAY OF THE WEDDING, when the tiniest dot, the tiniest beading, even a tiny stone in jewelry or bindi, everything black is FORBIDDEN. Oh, and btw, it's Hindu Goddess. Don't try to teach me about my own religion. I know every colour is allowed in the wedding EXCEPT black for the bride.

I think for the mom in law

She doesn’t want to make waves with the family. That’s good. She loves him and wants it to work. It’s just the wedding. The wedding is for the family, the marriage is what is important.

Because religious expectations have ALWAYS been more enforced on women than men!! XD

I know.... it’s unfair.

Huh?

Niamh-Creates yup

Some friends are secretly jealous I learn that a long time ago

@Calpurnia L they will alter or make one I your size...

Candy apple read was horrid while the deep red was rich and luxurious looking. Just seeing the wedding photos at the end demonstrate how shamefully wrong the cousin was.

they need conflict it’s obviously exaggerated

Exactly. I’m sure the supposed best friend is just jealous

@@DarkComatose15 yo why the hec would she be jealous like literally her friend is beautiful❤️😂

@@angelvargas5966 maybe she’s getting married before her or something idk, or maybe she can’t pull off the color like her friend can. Or maybe she can afford a price point that she cant. Idk, either way us women can get jealous about the stupidest stuff 😂

@@DarkComatose15 na she's actually very pretty maybe it could just be dat she wanted that dress or something but na the friend is very beautiful❤️😂🤩😍😭👋🏽🖤

@@angelvargas5966 dude not all jealousy has to do with weather or not someone is attractive

Exactly. It the bride day and it's her wedding

I think she did that because the friend knows about the culture and what is more appropriate for the dress. In some cultures it is considered very bad luck to have anything black (except hair of course) at a wedding.

It was a culture check, cos the white girl clearly has no idea

Exactly. It's dramatised for viewers.

Thank you lol..

I thought they almost had a hot pink/neon tinge to them - I loved the color of the one she choose much more

The darker one?

@@mayamorabito1669 yes dark one

The pictures in the last clearly shows she wore that dress.. I think you went investigating the poor girl was unnecessary 🤣🤣🤣🤣

What s her Instagram please lemme know

@@blackstorm8811 exactly😂😂

That's exactly what I noticed at first! The gold trim matched her hair and made her hair look like gold too!

absolutely.

Right? I get it's her aunt they trying to please but she should stand by her friend.

I know right, help her already lol, thats what your there for!

Thankfully the bride is strong-willed and won’t let her friend control her :)

The color would have looked amazing on her if she didn't have blond hair.

A light pink would’ve looked beautiful on her. Like how Mira Rajput wore for her wedding. It would still traditional

Raina Kumar yess🥰💕

All about steve

Jannat Khalid I agree with you. In some images with the camera work I think it did look pink but when it showed the dress from another camera in a different angle I saw completely red. My husband is from India. And we had to go look for dresses too. I have blond hair and pale skin and it did not work for me either

Yes

Oh yes!

Exactly

Ohh yes . And it's a rip off of say yes to the dress

but failed miserably lol

As a proud Indian I am telling you a secret . A proper traditional MIL ( Even the most nosy ones ) have no right to tell the bride what she wears probably because they know that bride will just wear red or yellow. Indian MIL' don't care about designs or any other thing , what they actually care about is the deep red colour and golden platings so the friend was actually lying and trying to force her to wear something that would compliment an Indian ( Brownish Black skin) this was just wrong.

Yeah, as someone with really pale olive skin, I just disappear or look sickly in bright colors 😅 Darker, deeper colors look much better!

It's scripted lol

@@AnnaHans88 yeah😂😂

Actually you seem to have not heard the bride.. She was the one that first spoke of pleasing the in-laws

@@eileenmcdonald3162 You're really trolling the bride...why? 😂🤔

True, exactly what I thought. She's so arghhhjj

Its a culture thing

Laura Flores do Americans not have culture??? Cause we do what if she was black or Spanish would u have said the same thing

Laura Flores not sure if your Asian but I feel like if you don’t know a culture in depth you can’t say that 😂

Run where ? She already chose to marry an asian guy .with time she will realise that an asian wedding in not the bride’s big day ,she doesn’t rly get to decide everything and that no she can’t always go against her in law’s decision 😂😂

The mother in law asking for the dress to be red, because it's traditional, doesn't mean she's controlling. If you think that's controlling, then man..... I would hate to be your future mother-in-law or husband since you have to learn how to compromise, especially when it comes to your family.

Not cutting hair part came way later in Sikhism. So, yeah that's not as hard and fast a rule. That was done only to make everyone aware that here's a Sikh and you can go to them for help. That's all.

@@dOVERanalyst It's an awesome reiigion. The only one on Earth that feeds any hungry person 24/7.

It's her family that's y

What if he is just naturally ....bald ?? A lot of people's hair fall off after growing a bit . :(

Exactly

Yes that darker red is the red I think of when it comes to india not that clown haired bright red

Mayb it looks different on camera

The lengha with the navy trim is considered a true red in the West. It turns out in India a true red for bridal is more along the lines of a bright red with pink undertone color (like the one her cousin was stuck on).

Yes!

In certain cultures of India, specifically punjabi. Mostly it’s the deep red that the bride went for that most Indian wear, traditionally. that’s the color I wore for my wedding

I don't think her mother in law gonna have any problem .. it's still red. It is most common red we Indians wear in marriages actually ... these days brides actually are going for different colours ....I am still going to wear red ..red is my favourite colour so 😂

@@iampigoinkoink5185 that's personally ur choice. red is also a gorgeous colour,no dought. the thing is that she should wear the colour she likes not the colour her mother in law likes. ofcourse its her wedding.

The mother in law clearly had no problems, since she made his Kurta in the exact colors with the navy blue.

Yup! If you don't set boundaries now you'll get walked all over later!

Yes go ahead and absolutely disrespect a culture. That shows on you. On how you are raised. Not on us. In India, the wedding is more about the WHOLE FAMILY. Try saying it is only for the bride (and in North, I'm sure you'd have a sandal thrown at you) or some elder will show your place. A wedding is about everyone. Black is downright disrespectful. Blasphemous. It takes the slightest amount of respect to not do something blasphemous to anyone's culture. The navy border did look completely black. Even a single dot or single thread of black on the wedding dress is a NO NO. You don't do that. She could have found a middle ground & found another red lehenga without the dark dark navy that looked black. The In laws are giving up their dreams & accepting a foreignor bride. The least you can do is show them some respect on one day! Just the day they've to show you as theirs to literally 1500 people, as their family. Just that one day can you just be nice? I think that's the least asked here.

Tami L might be from the father’s side of the family

@@nickisalizzoni6026 still makes the mother in law her aunt though...

@@AlexG-hl1jt how does it make the mother in law her aunt if she is his cousin from his father's side? Then they're not related in any way.

@@Emilia497 aunt in law. Im still an aunt to the nephew on my hubs side.

It's a control tactic to make her feel guilty

That's what happens with Indians in other countries!! their Indian trend has stuck to the same year they left the county.. haha

Swathi shree I agree .the NRI’s wear the worst Indian dresses . Fat old aunties wearing all the bling bling in the world and the biggest florals and ugliest sarees and lehengas

dukeofpkr lmao

Shes not backwards and there is nothing wrong with her. If anything, she is giving her opinion. That's why her friend brought her there. She was looking out for her too. I personally agreed with her, she looked better in the lighter dress and LIKE A BRIDE. The darker dress washed her out and took the wow factor out.

The director says “pick something and make it dramatic”

I was gonna say the same thing. The store clerk just had this tone of "I hate all of you. Please gtfo of my store." Like even her comment of "well I see you can say lehenga" makes it seem like she's grumpy that a white women is in her store buying a dress from her people or something

Wezel LispProductions She’s actually the owner. But yeah she is kinda dry.

I don't think the store owner is hateful. I think you are reading too much into it.

The owner is a little bit nervous or awkward.. That doesn't mean she is hateful

Someone can't have an opinion ig

kathy shepherd omg!! You’re right and She’s a bad friend too

She's literally there to give her opinion as a friend and someone from the culture. She was polite and never forced.

Yes she was trying to force, if you don’t remember you can watch the video again

They're both annoying. How many times can you fit the word "like" into one paragraph?

Raveena Carahaa that’s exactly what I thought😂

She also seemed annoyed every time the bride didn’t like something she picked out.

Raveena Carahaa yeah, like she was some sort of bio-bot. Or synthetica ?

Raveena Carahaa you talking. About the designer?.

If you give in to a mother-in-law once, you will be doing that the rest of your life.

Omg.. Screw off . The bride was the first to discuss the in-laws

omg is it coming from a muxlimm girl who cant even chose her life partner and actually maried off in the family with much older men?

@@eileenmcdonald3162 no lmao the friend was annoying af and she brought up the in laws EVERY 5 min

It's a sikh wedding in a temple. They have to sit on the floor and pray. You have to be dressed accordingly. In laws are really important to Asians. If you're marrying into a culture, you're required to research it and have respect for its traditions.

@@jajaja7394 what?

she said micro velvet which is lighter and more airy than normal velvet

Dobby 98 They looked red when zoomed in.

Wow, people get so triggered. She was giving her opinion. If anything, the bride was bossy and beyond rude.

humaboutique2 right?! People are so exaggerating...

humaboutique2 how the hell is the bride rude she spending her money she better fucking like it. And you don’t take fashion advice from her friend did you see what she was wearing 🤮

I was wondering the same thing. I was like that is like a pomegranate red. She kept telling her well you can get a tan, but still that was too bright of a dress for her skin tone.

I mean, like, one thing I've learned from living in an area with many other Indians is that saree/lehenga-requirements vary from area to area. She said Gurudwara, so maybe Sikh people just use brighter colours 🤷🏻‍♀️Just a thought.

Yeah it looked like Shia was looking at her saying, "Shut up, it's about the bride"! I loved how she said, "it's Navy not Black".

Well, thinking of traditional families of all cultures, the easiest way for the friend to ensure the parents in law think the future daughter in law disrespects their cultural traditions, would be for the friend to say, you wear whatever you want girlfriend, its your wedding. She did not. So, the friend, being a true friend, passed on the one thing the in laws requested, a bright red dress. The friend, once she told the bride to be what the in laws wanted, could have let the issue go immediately the bride decided she did not like the bright red tone.. Also remember, the family, if they had an issue with the colours of the dress, could likely go after the friend / cousin for not getting the bride to be to pick the colour they preferred. Most interesting for me was the bride to be's comment, neither she nor her groom to be are traditional. If they have children, have they agreed what religion, if any, they will be brought up in ? And do his and her families respect that ? I wish them well.

so annoying. like not complimentary.. just making her feel stressed about her mother in law

I have only seen 3 of these shows and the shop assistant is always like that, not what you would expect.

The worker is actually the owner and designer guys.

Yea I wish she thought more on the brides' perspective.

Ew, don't

Noelia Mejia she wasn’t being mean she was trying to save her. East Indian culture is quite rigid. He cut his harried married a white woman, that’s a lot for them to take in. The only thing the family asked is that she wear a color. Now your going to have a permanent problem called shade from the family. Not worth it, so not worth it. So go right ahead do u and leave with it

Kya bride is walking a minefield. And she is really trying to help her. She failed. But hey, she can say she tried. The dress is beautiful, but unfortunately it is going to be a problem. Cause the weddings are about family and cultural.

@@vilnap3002 and thats the problem right there

I mean it’s probably staged. Say Yes To The Dress was staged also.

Yes! No mean mother making the bride cry

so true! Absolutely hate her! so annoying 😒

Exactly what I was thinking 😅 The quality is so much nicer in India!

So true! And for a lot cheaper - you know we love a bargain

Maybe it would have been the other red that she did not want. Photos at the end, they all looked happy enough in the wrong red.

Now I'm scandinavian, so not familiar with indian wedding traditions. But why would the groom let his mother sort his outfit ? And why do I get the impression that the friend, (groom's cousin), isn't really best pleased about the wedding happening. Is it just a cultural thing, or did she originally have her eyes set on the guy for herself ?? Also the future mother-in-law is made to sound like a complete hag ! Makes me wonder if the marriage is doomed from the beginning... Personally I should have made it clear in the nuptials ; Parents not to interfere ! The couple must be trusted to sort their life on their own. (Parents possibly know best, but sometimes a wedding calls for an overdue "cutting the umbelical cord"). 😘

@@ninaelsbethgustavsen2131 I'm not super familiar with how Indian weddings traditionally go but from what I DO know, it seems that the parents make most of the decisions and a lot of things are done to whatever pleases them. If I'm wrong then no offence to Indians, that's just how it seems to me, a foreigner. As far as the friend having her eyes set on the guy for herself...I sure hope not because the guy is her cousin 😬🤢

Trust me on this everyone in her in laws gonna be like that friend

Ye I also feel like on her wedding day she will be wearing a whole different color and a cropped shirt soooo....

Ketki Deshmukh - it’s a matter of dressing appropriately for the Gurudwara. Modest dressing is the dress code for all Gurudwara’s. I don’t think it has anything to do with the bride and groom being practicing Sikhs or not.

@@NMDPKR these days the gurudwaras don't care if the bride is shown couple of inches of skin.

nmdpkr do you really think that dress was revealing. Friend was just making issue. That much belly showing is pretty common.

Ila Bora - the friend was making an issue because showing your stomach is inappropriate for the Gurudwara. The bride did not want to show much stomach because she respected the modest dress code for the Gurudwara. Not to mention, the bride also stated she felt uncomfortable exposing too much stomach. In the end she chose an outfit that she was comfortable in.

nmdpkr I don’t know where you are from but in Canada it’s really common for brides to show there stomach at the gurdwara I had a Sikh wedding and showed 2 inches of my stomach without any complains.

It's usually the sample piece

I agree

I didn't understand the concern and then she slammed the lehenga on the wooden floor and I winced at the audible clang :D

Gosh I agree! There is no need to try to appeal to the lowest demographic by scripting (obviously) fake "drama". It distracts from the lovely time a bride should have with her friends or family and brings the tone of the show down. I know I'd much rather just see the women (and men) try on another three outfits than this weird back and forth. Utterly pointless. On the upside, I'm glad feedback was taken on board from.last season and they are finally showing the full outfit on the bride! More of that, less of the pretending. Real people, trying on lovely wedding outfits, genuine reactions = a far more relatable and better show to watch.

ILIUS it isn’t fake tho

Maha and Mariam clearly isn’t real....

ILIUS no it’s real but since the ppl are on camera so they want to be more dramatic

Maha and Mariam so more dramatic hence fake! You just agreed with my point 😂

If you want to marry an Indian you have to consider your mother-in-law's choice more than your's! If you dont want, better marry a westerner! If you try to snatch an Indian from his mother, you would be cursed by all your in-law relatives! Indian mothers will never leave the hands of their sons into their daughter in laws!

Lol. In families that are old school or those living in smaller towns in India .. yea maybe. Not so much in modernised families. And FYI.. I grew up in India unlike the family in the video who spent most or all of their lives in a so-called “westernised” country..… So I understand family ties too.. Also, we’re talking about a wedding dress here not about snatching an Indian son away.

These videos are about wedding outfits … and this is totally off topic but Just to add to your comment .. when 2 people get married, they start their own family - - 2 individuals with their own responsibilities.. why does any mother have to leave their son in any1s hands ? What about a daughter ? How does a mother “leave her daughter in a son in laws hands?”

@@n.r4813 if you have been broughtup in India you would not ask these questions! It all starts with wedding dress that a son's mother started feeling insecure! Everything else is just a result of that!

@@andril0019 how do u even know that this mother was insecure for whatever reason. And just coz my name is such doesn’t mean you stereotype it& assume I’m not Indian or raised in India. This conversation doesn’t even make any sense. The bride and groom clearly got married at the venue and outfits of their choice.

Aaliyah Ali honestly LOL these are such 00s looks! America is so behind in south Asian fashion

Aaliyah Ali so true

Go online and get it cheaper

u can get them.under 60$ in india😬

R. S. right vintage but not tacky lol these dresses are so behind the times and trends!

It's a matter of the modesty quotient that the sect observes. It is not a matter of immaturity. But, it is a gorgeous dress and she looks gorgeous.

Saari is the evergreen dress. It can be worn in a sexy way and also can be worn in all body cover way. Saree is the most elegant dress which provides you thousands of way to wear. you can change the the drapping way of saree according to occasions like wedding,party, prayer, casual.

Me too, especially the way they reply one after e other it's ryming

Yes! It's so weird to see her friend constantly mention what the mother in law wants. She's already wearing a lehenga and a red one. This level of control down to the shade is absurd, I'm glad that the bride isn't a pushover.

True 🤣

Her friend seems like she just want her friend to have the worst wedding in the world.

Yeah NRI's are bad... they are stuck in the 80s 90s India

The mother in law should HV come if she wants her opinion to be so respected

no actually its a difference of culture becuase I am finding myself agreeing to the friend and not to the bride....most families would not like any hint of dark blue or black its a big no and i thought she really looked good in the bright colors it made her look much prettier i think the dress she chose ummm ok but not the best she tried according to me....we are used to being partial to the bright red

das twat

you are useless
