Karan Johar was one of the few people who attended the intimate wedding ceremony of actors Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor. The actors tied the knot on April 14 and had their mehendi and sangeet functions on April 13. Recently, on the show Hunarbaaz Desh Ki Shaan, Karan recalled a funny incident that took place during the mehendi function. Karan is one of the judges on the show along with Parineeti Chopra and Mithun Chakraborty. Bharti Singh and her husband Haarsh Limbachiyaa are the hosts of the show.
In a recent clip shared by Colors TV, Karan is seen recalling an incident from the wedding after Bharti asks him about the wedding. Bharti told Karan that people were curious as to who wore what at the wedding functions. Commenting on Karan’s pink attire on the Mehendi day, the host said, “Pinky unki ghar aayi lekin pinky aap lagrahe the (She got married but you were all decked up in pink).”
Karan then began narrating the mehendi story and said, “I want to say what happened with me at the mehendi ceremony. I had applied mehendi for the first time. I had thought when Alia will get married I’ll apply mehendi for sure. I had already decided that. I am not used to mehendi on my hand and it was very hot too.”
“Maine mehendi laga di aur phir mai apna paseena pochne laga. Mai bhool gaya mere haathon mei mehendi thi, toh saara mehendi jo hai mere sarr pe, mere maathe pe, mere chehre pe lag gaya. And immediately mujhe wash karna padd gaya (I applied mehendi and then started wiping my sweat. I forgot there was mehendi on my palms and it got smeared on my head, forehead, and face. I had to immediately wash it),” he added.
KJo said, “Waha Puneet hai, jo Alia ki makeup karti hai toh wo andar chali gayi and mujhe pata nahi kya kya lotion daal dia mere chehre pe. Warna poora henna jo hai na mere chehre pe hota (Alia’s makeup artist Puneet was there and she applied lotion on my face. Otherwise the entire mehendi would have been on my face).”
After listening to the story, Bharti said, “Thank God unhone thoda makeup kardiya aur utar gaya warna aesa lagta ki kisi dada ne paan khakar… aese kardiya (Thank God she applied makeup or else it would look like someone had eaten betel leaf and…).”
