    Jacqueline Fernandez loves a statement-making piece. The actress often styles Indian jewels in deliberate layers, pairing chokers with cascading rani haars, stacking kadas with bangles, and offsetting bold earrings with an understated maang tikka.


    Maximising jewellery on your wedding day can feel like an Olympic sport. The task of matching metal tones to your lehenga’s embroidery, ensuring stones don’t compete for attention, and keeping the overall composition balanced may seem like a mighty task. For Jacqueline Fernandez, it’s just another Tuesday. Dear maximalist brides, consider this your cue to go big, go bold, and get it right!

    For Manifest to become one of Cambridge Dictionary's most viewed words of 2024 — 1,30,000 hits and counting — it means some of us must have Googled it at least once. I know, I hit that search button over and over again
    because each time I looked at it, I saw a new meaning.

    Putting together a homegrown title at a time when the demise of print has been long announced may seem surprising...
    ...but it has long been a dream of mine to give India a magazine it deserves. A magazine that is the country.

    And nothing, absolutely nothing, represents India more than our weddings.It is a time when families are brought together. Traditions come alive as they are adapted to each couple's beliefs. And lives are joined in a way that the romantic in me still enjoys.

    The fact that it comes with band, baaja and baraat — what's not to love?And that is the reason our first issue celebrates:
    THE NEW BRIDE.
