What did Prithi Narayanan wore

On the other hand, his wife Prithi looked stunning in a bright red ethnic ensemble. Her outfit featured a full-sleeved kurta crafted from luxurious silk fabric, adorned with intricate golden embroidery that beautifully showcased exquisite craftsmanship. She paired it with straight-fit pants and a matching, heavily embroidered dupatta elegantly draped over her shoulder, completing her graceful and festive look.

She accessorised her look with a pair of golden jhumka earrings, a sleek gold necklace adorning her neck, stacked bangles on her wrist, and a pair of silver heels. Her makeup was subtle, featuring kohl eyes, smoky eyeshadow, mascara-coated lashes, defined brows, blushed cheeks, a luminous highlighter, and a tiny red bindi adorning her forehead. With her luscious curly tresses left loose, Prithi looked simply wow.
