Decoding Safa And Kalgi Designs Worn By 7 Handsome Bollywood Celebrity Grooms At Their Wedding

The wedding day is as special for a groom as it is for his bride. And, just like the bride, he too gives special attention to what he wears and how he looks on this day. Apart from his perfectly fitting, richly embroidered sherwani and complementing mojaris, two things that certainly make him stand apart from the rest of the crowd are- safa and kalgi.

Safa is the stylish turban that the groom wears and kalgi is the ornament that he wears on it to complete his royal look. Let us show you the safas and kalgis that our handsome Bollywood grooms wore on their wedding day to give you some amazing ideas. Here are our top picks:

#1. Abhishek Bachchan

Well, the most ornate safa of all the Bollywood weddings belongs to Junior Bachchan. He got married to Aishwarya Rai in 2007. It was a white and gold brocade safa, which matched the colours of his sherwani, and was draped in a very royal fashion- nothing less than that of a king.

His kalgi was the star of the show though. It had very elaborate kundan work on it, with a big green stone hanging from the centrepiece, which perfectly matched the green haar (neckpiece) he was wearing. It seems that when it came to creating a perfect look Jr. Bachchan was as much on top of his game as his Miss World bride. After all, he knew that the whole world would be watching them quite closely!
