Sameera Reddy recycles wedding saree after 8 years and rocks it: Saba Pataudi and Gauahar Khan are impressed

Sameera Reddy recycled her grey and gold brocade silk wedding saree to attend wedding festivities with her husband. The star wore the six yards after eight years. She proved repeating wedding ensembles is okay.

Actor Sameera Reddy is a mental health and body positivity champion on Instagram. The star believes in being her authentic self and even motivates her followers to do the same by dropping inspiring videos. On Monday evening, the star dropped a different kind of inspiration for her followers, and it is all about recycling old clothes to create new looks. Recently, the star attended wedding festivities wearing her wedding saree after eight years. Yes, you read that right.

We have all heard stories of how brides crib about not getting a chance to wear their wedding lehengas or sarees because people often shame them for repeating the outfit. Long story short, more often than not, after weddings, the lehenga or saree is packed away and left to become a memory of the past. However, Sameera's new post motivated brides to recycle their wedding look without inhibitions.

Sameera took to Instagram on Monday to share a collage that showed the star wearing the saree on her wedding day and most recently for attending someone else's wedding with her husband, Akshai Varde. She captioned the post, "I wore my wedding saree after 8 years and it felt so amazing #wedding #feels with @mr.vardenchi @houseofneetalulla."
