Loving her minimal love story kaleeras in silver by Mrinalini Chandra. Crafted with intricate detailing, each motif and charm symbolised the memories she wished to keep close on her big day. Diya tells us, "I always wanted my kaleeras which could tell the story of me and Dhruv! Since Dhruv means “star,” I added lots of stars for him. We spent our early days in Mumbai by the sea, so there’s a little wave too. He’s a big Ronaldo fan and a great footballer.. so his #7 jersey made it in! Our chai drives, our Maltese dogs Bubbles & Blossom, and our favourite memories are all part of it. I also included the initials of both sets of parents and the nicknames of our siblings, Tabu & Bhambu. And two doves at the end, for our journey ahead!! Everything that makes us… us!"

Each charm symbolised peace, harmony, and blossoming love, coming together to build an enchanted, serene world on her wrists. Alia’s whimsical take inspired a whole new wave of brides seeking elegance rooted in emotion.

The design struck the perfect balance between romantic elegance and deeply personal storytelling.
