Katrina Kaif has always been a beauty but her wedding photos have left us speechless. So simple yet so glamorous, so subtle yet so stunning, only Kat could’ve pulled this off. Whether it’s her wedding veil or the jhumkas from her haldi ceremony, there’s a lot to take away from her wedding with Vicky. But for her mehendi ceremony, Katrina broke the monotony with her jewellery. 

Instead of something subtle and dainty, Katrina opted for a beautiful and chunky necklace with colourful stones. Designed by connoisseur Sabyasachi, the details of the jewellery were shared on his official social media page. The Sooryavanshi actress opted for a navratna necklace that is an absolute trousseau essential. 

Sabyasachi went on to describe Katrina's entire ensemble as, "For the mehendi ceremony, Katrina Kaif @katrinakaif wears a multi-coloured matka silk lehenga with a patchwork blouse and an embroidered tulle dupatta inspired by Sabyasachi’s graduation collection Kashgaar Bazaar. The collection found its muse in the diversity of India’s regional folklore, crafts and nomadic culture, and layers cheent prints with hand-fringed embellishments, brass sequins and heavily embroidered borders. The lehenga is paired with eclectic Navratan inspired jewellery that pays homage to the celestial gems in emeralds, uncut diamonds, multi-coloured sapphires, pearls, spinels, tourmalines and rubies in 18k gold from Sabyasachi Heritage Jewellery"

The beauty and specialty of the navratna necklace are that it contains nine stones and each of them have a special benefit. With the wedding season upon us, here are 9 reasons why you should add a navratna necklace to your trousseau. 

The navratna stones include ruby, pearl, diamond, emerald, red coral, blue sapphire, yellow sapphire, hessonite and cat's eye.   

Not just Katrina, even Shahid Kapoor’s wife Mira Rajput went on to don a navratna necklace for her wedding as well as her first photo call with the media. She teamed it with a beautiful powder pink lehenga as she posed with Shahid.
