Payal

Summary: Anakin Skywalker is the roommate of your best friend's crush. That's all. Well, he's also a pain in the ass. But could one dance and a lucky pair of payal change things?

pt 2 is out!

pairing: Anakin Skywalker x desi!reader (or just reader who's familiar/involved with that culture, no physical descriptions involved)

Warnings: None, except for 'i haven't proofread a single fucking thing' :) sorry for the mistakes in advance.

A/n: wrote something on a whim again (this is the first ever time I've written a proper fanfic tho *_*). Happy navratri y'all

Edit: Here's some payal playbacks aka any moodboard/refs if you want to know (songs, outfits, word meanings etc.)

It was Navratri, the festival in honour of the Goddess Durga. Nine nights of colours, prayers, and a whole lot of dancing. Oh, and the sweets! You couldn't wait to just rot your teeth on those festive delicacies.

It was the 5th night of festivities and today's celebrations were mainly the daily prayer and the dandiya dance. The special event for today however, was the ladies' dance competition. Your best friend had practically dragged your ass to get your name registered along with hers and your other friend Pari's, a half-assed promise of treating you to your favourite food at that fancy restaurant on the other side of the city to bribe you into the elaborate bollywood-esque romance scheme to seduce her crush. "There's no seducing!" she whisper-shouted, standing at the booth where you had to give your name, her cheeks immediately heating up at your insinuation. "I just want him to... see me, you know?" and you couldn't help but mentally scoff at that, why was she so blind? "Plus the price is money," she added, smirking as she picked up the pen to write down the names.

"Well shit, you should've said that first girl, I'm always looking to make me some moolah" your smirk matching hers even though your brain was already exhausted just *thinking* about the hours of practice she was gonna make you do to make sure everything was perfect to the T. That was over a week back, and after hours of choreographing and practising and picking out the costumes, the day was here, and despite all the whining you had done during practice, you couldn't deny that you actually hoped that her plan worked. Was it because you were tired of your oblivious best friend and her equally oblivious man playing dog and the bone with their feelings? Nooo, you could never be tired of your darling best friend's endless rants about how 'handsome he looked at the cafeteria today, in his lucky white cashmere sweater his ex-grandma gifted him in 2019' (how did she know that?) or how 'it's so sad his little sister's goldfish died because it jumped into the pot of boiling water for tea, and they've invited us to its funeral' (what?). And it most definitely wasn't because you were starting to get sick of having to watch them make those nauseating googly eyes at each other every time you hung out, for the past year. (though you wondered if it would only get worse when they finally got together.)

That's right, when, because if those two failed to get their ship sailing after tonight, you were 100% planning on just walking up to each of them, asking them what time they're free for dinner and setting them up on a date yourself. Your mental planning however, was disrupted by the creaking of the metal gate to the lawn space that had been rented for the festival. You turned around, a smile immediately pulling on your lips at the sight of the said man you were downright ready to shake like a maraca till your best friend got her deserved confession (though you expected the same on her end as well, of course). But the smile immediately fell at the sight of another man walking in right behind him. Anakin. What the hell was he doing here? And truly, the scowl that pulled on your face was hardly your fault when his eyes met yours and his lips immediately turned up into that infuriating smirk as the two of them headed towards you. But before you could march up to him and demand why he was here, your best friend ran up to you, gripping your arm to stop herself from crashing into you (you supposed the accidental intervention was for the better, since asking him such a thing might only give him more reason to mock you, it was obvious he was here with Krish, your best friend's crush who was also very unfortunately college roommates with Anakin, seriously how did someone as sweet as that guy get stuck with a moron like him?).

"C'mon it's time for the competition to start, ours is literally the second performance!" She started to drag you by the arm only to stop immediately at the sight of Krish causing you to crash into her. "Are we sure you can dance in the competition when you can hardly manage to walk without stumbling?" his voice immediately caused you to raise your head, glaring daggers as you squared up to throw your own taunt about how he just had to be oh so special and wear black even though tonight's theme was white. Unfortunately, you were beaten by Krish as he elbowed Anakin harshly in the rib, making you snicker at his grunt of pain, before walking even closer towards your best friend. "Aamani... hi," Krish breathed out, shifting his weight from one foot to another. And though you wanted to roll your eyes at how his eyes seemed to literally twinkle as he looked at your best friend, or how he always took time to call her by her full name despite all her friends calling her Manu, like he just had to say it every time to even begin to appreciate her entire being that he was so clearly besotted with, you couldn't help the small smirk that tugged on your lips as you gently pried your arm out of her death grip. (when the hell did she get so strong?) ‘Let's leave them to it, then.’ You thought to yourself.

And with that you walked away towards the small stage, knowing they'd most likely not see or hear anything besides the other person for at least the next half hour. "They're not gonna leave each other's side for the rest of the night, are they?" Ugh, Anakin. How had you forgotten? and now he was following you. Great. "Well, they wouldn't normally, but we do have to perform our dance and we're up second, which means the lovebirds will have to sacrifice at least half an hour for final practice and the performance." Hold on, why were you entertaining him? You stopped suddenly and turned to him with a scowl, "and I'll have you know I can dance very well and I-" "Is that why you're wearing red? for the dance? I thought the theme was white today," the audacity this man had to interrupt you. "Oh did you? Is that why you instead wore black?" you popped a hip with a closed fist resting on your hipbone, raising a jeering eyebrow at him, his eyes immediately drawn to the movement and indirectly your exposed midriff and then the shiny white stud in your belly button. He gulped before quickly averting his eyes to the stage behind you. "I think they announced that they're gonna be starting the competition soon," he replied instead.

Oh shit.

"Good luck" was all he said before walking away towards the audience gathering up for the performances. Oh shit, you really had to find your best friend fast.

Half an hour later with your costumes readjusted and makeup re-touched you were ready to get on stage. You weren't worried about messing up as much as you were about not keeping the same amount of energy for the next half an hour. That's right, your original plans of going mostly unnoticed as your best friend's supporting dancer for a mere 4-5 minutes went down the drain the minute she blabbered about you being a dancer as a kid to the aunty from down the block who was arranging her own group dance performance and immediately downright ordered you to join her group as well. At the time you didn't mind much but now, now you were wondering if you could pretend to sprain your ankle after your first performance to avoid the other one. I mean a whole half an hour of continuous dancing? and worse, the traitor that was your best friend wasn't in the second one and so you'd been entirely alone with a bunch of strangers during the first few practice sessions. (you knew it wasn't her fault the lady didn't ask her to join but you were sure she might have accommodated another person considering it was a big dance number) So here you were now, about 30 seconds away from getting on stage, sending a quick prayer that you don't throw up at any point considering they were pretty much back-to-back dances. As soon as you heard your group being announced the three of you walked onto the stage to get in your positions. You used the brief gap before the music started to scan the huge crowd, immediately spotting Krish almost at the very front of the audience, closest to where Manu was standing, but Anakin wasn't beside him like you expected. Your eyes continuing their scan to find him in the crowd before you even realised what you were doing. Wait, why the hell are you looking for him? You need to focus on the count before the music starts.

And as soon as the music started your body naturally moved to the rhythm and beat, a light laughter bubbling in your chest as you felt the stress melt away with each step. You had forgotten just how fun being on stage actually was, and with the atmosphere of such joy and celebration it was that much livelier. Before you know it, the performance was over, Krish walking quickly to the side of the stage as you got off, still high on the adrenaline and euphoria of performing after so long, and everything had gone smoothly too. It was hard to keep the smile off your face, even more so when you saw Manu and Krish talk animatedly at the bottom of the stairs to the stage, her head thrown back, laughing at something he said and then nodding enthusiastically with a toothy grin. Her expression changing to that of shock for a brief second as Krish immediately picks her up to twirl her around, her laughter dancing in the cold night air once again. It was only your obnoxiously loud teasing whistle that broke their bubble, though only temporarily. You had to go back on stage in five minutes and you wanted to make sure that Manu had company since you wouldn't be by her side for at least the next half an hour. Though realistically you knew it was her who wouldn't be by your side for the rest of the night. Ah, young love... or whatever.

"So now that the two of you have finally been cured of your obliviosis, have fun kiddos," you smirked, "and make sure to be safe." You winked at the pair, earning you a half-hearted angry call of your name from Manu as Krish let out an awkward nervous chuckle, burying his face into her shoulder. Aww, you had embarrassed them. "What? I'm just saying, have her back by 11." you gave a pointed look at him to which he immediately straightened up, enthusiastically nodding to your words while Manu continued to glare at you. "Back by 11? What am I in middle school?" "If you were in middle school I'd want you home by 9 miss, just what the hell sorta parents did you have?" You looked down at your watch realising your 5-minute break was nearing its end. "Okay lovebirds, I gotta go, but seriously have her home safe if you guys decide to leave the ground," you said pointing a finger at Krish, "and you," your finger pointing at Manu now, "don't forget to text me when you're leaving and when you get back home, alright?" She left his arms to quickly walk up the stairs to the top where you stood, pulling you into a bear hug as she rocked you side to side without even giving you a chance to hug her back as she held your arms at your sides, "I'll text you." She freed you from the hug to squeeze your palms in hers, "I had a lot of fun with the dance, thank you. And good luck with your next dance, sorry I won't be there to watch it, I mean we could stay till it gets over. we'll have the rest of the night anyway. Hey Krish, maybe we should stay for–"

But you immediately cut her off, "absolutely not, you've been looking forward to this day for almost a whole month now." You shook your head as you saw her open her mouth to argue, "plus I know you have that scarf you knitted for him in your bag." you smirked as her eyes went wide with surprise, not having expected you to know that. "Pulling that lovely 'oh it's a cold night, isn't it? Here, I just so happen to have this beautiful scarf that I definitely didn't knit just for you, here, let me wrap it around your beautiful neck. Oh no, you don't have to give it back to me at the end of the night, I have a matching one at home that I totally didn't plan as a couple’s thing, no seriously you can keep it' on him? There couldn't be a better opportunity." You laughed as her ears became bright red, "I hate you and your Nancy Drew observation skills." she mumbled out of puffed cheeks before immediately pulling you into another hug. "I love you. Good luck." "Thanks, I love you." In the end, you were about 2 minutes late to your dance and the aunty's scary face as she hurriedly signalled you to get into your position made you cringe on the inside, but oh well whatever, there were so many people you doubted that anyone had noticed there was supposed to be another dancer. You were here now anyway. You were halfway through the dance, your back turned to the audience when you felt a sharp gaze on you. Weird, there were about 100 people watching you, why did you feel this one particular stare stand out? It was only when you completed the circle to turn to face the audience again that you immediately connect gazes with the sharp eyes you had felt on you. Anakin. He was standing at the very back, close to the water coolers and refreshment tables, leaning on one of the empty tables with his arms crossed. His gaze never leaving yours. For a second your thoughts drifted and you were annoyed at how good he looked in the black shimmery kurta, though the top 3 buttons being left unbuttoned was so unnecessarily extra. The sleeves folded over his forearms that stretched the fabric, his collarbones standing out from the open collar. Such a slut. But damn did he look fine. Wait, what the hell? Focus, focus, focus. You couldn't lose count mid-step. And tripping right now would mess up everyone's steps since it was a circular movement. Why the hell would you trip over him anyway? Ugh. And so you focused back on your steps, continuing to feel that strange unwavering gaze on you for the rest of your dance.

Half an hour later, you were entirely done with the dance competition. Your feet hurt, your stomach was grumbling every few seconds and you were sure you'd be getting a headache from being so close to the speakers for so long. Thankfully, the emcee had announced a short break for refreshments and such, before the rest of the dances and then the final event to end the night — the dandiya dance. Were you positively exhausted and maybe even getting real tired of all the dancing and loud music? Most definitely. But Manu had texted you saying they'd be back for the final dandiya dance and you were really hoping to get to dance at least once with her, you know, outside the competition, just for funsies sort of stuff. So your irritation? Nothing some tasty snacks and maybe a cold drink couldn't solve. That was until an unfortunately familiar face came into your view as he plopped into the seat right next to yours at the circular table. Not the two other tables that were entirely empty (wasn't he supposed to be some emo loner who preferred to sulk in a corner?) or even the chair on the other side of the table (though you wondered if having him directly in your line of sight would make it worse). But no, he just had to sit right next to you with his stupid pretty eyes purposefully not meeting yours and his annoying plump lips innocently wrapping around the spoon with a piece of gulab jamun on it. He didn't even like sweets.

"Um— what the hell?" "What?" he looked at you with doe eyes rounded in innocence, and your eyes narrowed in suspicion. "Nothing, never mind," you were too tired and too hungry to start anything right now and what would you even ask, 'Why the hell are you sitting next to me?' 'didn't know there was some rule telling me where I can sit' is what he'd say, maybe roll his eyes at you, the usual stuff. So you continued eating your puff pastry in silence. Until you just had to ask, "I thought you didn't like sweets?" You tried to make your voice sound as non-judgemental as possible, you were only curious after all. "And who told you that?" he raised an eyebrow at you. Truthfully, nobody. But you had noticed the way he always avoided the dessert table at parties and functions, the way he only drank his coffee black; not even your best friend's infamous black forest cake that she had made for Krish's birthday a few months back had tempted him to even grab a Yolanda-approved bite. Yolanda would certainly be proud. Obviously, this had nothing to do with you observing him particularly, you just observed a lot of things around you, and he just very unfortunately happened to be around you a lot, being Krish's roommate and 'brotha from anotha motha' or whatever they said. And yet, here he was eating a freaking gulab jamun that was absolutely dripping with the sugary-est syrup. Did he hit his head on the way or something?

"Did you hit—" "I ran into Krish and Aamani, she told me to give this to you," he interrupted you yet again, turning to face you and pulling out a long silver chain-like thing, which upon a closer look you realised with an elated gasp, was the missing half of your lucky pair of payal, the one you'd been looking for everywhere earlier that evening. "I thought these came in pairs," it was a question from the tone with which he said it, but his eyes remained fixated on the jewellery in his hands, thumb running over the delicate silver with a gentleness you didn't know he possessed. You lifted the hem of your skirt a little, head tilting down to point at your left ankle, "they do. I just couldn't find the other one." You shook your head, going back to taking a sip of your drink, "I like the sound they make when you dance, it's fun, so I thought ek hai toh ek hi sahi," catching his questioning gaze you translated, "if there's only one then so be it, I hardly ever get to wear these anyway." You shrugged, "Manu must've found it later and forgotten to give it to me earlier. I think their dating honeymoon phase is gonna be worse than their not-dating honeymoon phase" You rolled your eyes affectionately, expecting him to make a teasing remark too or at least give you that amused smirk. Instead you saw him give an almost imperceptible yet decisive nod, quickly sliding off his chair to kneel in front of you. "What are you-" He gently lifted your right foot onto his folded knee, his nimble fingers making quick work of the clasp on your anklet. Your stomach fluttered as you felt the warmth of his hands on your cold bare ankle, and you were sure if you still had that sip of cold drink in your mouth, your lungs would be burning from snorting it down the wrong pipe, and definitely not because he might've stolen your breath. His fingers skimmed in a barely there touch down your foot. Till now, his gaze had been entirely focused on clasping the jewellery but now that he was done he lifted his head, looking directly into your eyes from his still kneeling position, your faces a few inches apart. This time you could feel your heart burn. Dang, maybe you should cut down on the greasy food and drinks. His gaze briefly shifted to your lips, but then he quickly got up, dusting off his pants, picking up his empty gulab jamun cup, throwing a quick, "I'mgonnagothrowthis" over his shoulder and then he was gone. He quickly disappeared into the crowds while you still sat there, entirely motionless. Your mind blank except for the phantom feeling from his feather touch on your skin.

It was finally time for the last round of dancing. You had run into Manu and Krish while carrying your trash to the bin, the emptiness of your thoughts completely overthrown by the excited shout of your name. You were surprised they had spotted you first, considering all the doped-up lovey smiles and heart-eyes you noticed when they walked to you. The brief hand squeeze and wide-eyed glance from her let you know you were in for an entire night of dramatic recalling of every detail of their evening and you could only shake your head with a fond smirk. As you all walked back towards the dance area, Manu spoke up, "Oh, did you get the payal I'd given Anakin to give to you?" she looked down at your feet though they were covered with your skirt. You supposed she heard them jingle, the sound louder and more noticeable now that you were wearing both of them. But her question brought back that unwanted memory from earlier in the evening instead, and you fought real hard to keep your face from heating up, inhaling a deep breath as inconspicuously as possible, "uh– yeah, he um.. he did." you nodded your head a little too aggressively, "I mean I got it, yeah." Lightly lifting your skirt to show your pair of anklets safely secured, by the most gentle hands you'd ever felt. This time you felt your ears undeniably heat up. 'What the hell? Why were you so fixated on that one thing? It was nothing. It's not like he was sliding a wedding ring on you or something.' Though for some reason, that thought only made your breath stutter as you felt the lava-like blood now rushing to your cheeks. Ugh, get a grip, get. a. grip. And since you were too busy trying to appear totally normal and shoot the butterflies in your stomach dead, you missed the mischievous look that Manu shot Krish as she gave a quick squeeze to his hand in hers. "Should we really have been spying on them like that? And worse, taking photos of them without them knowing?" and though his question was whispered through a sigh he squeezed her hand right back.

"Oh, hush. 10 years from now when they have cute little munchkins running around, I'll have proof to show that I was the one that set their ship sailing." she answered with a smirk. "You've thought about their kids? 10 years from now??" he raised his brows with an incredulous laugh. "Of course. I think about everything." Even the things that you were too practical to consider. Your words, not hers. 'Blind' is what she would call it. You may have the observation skills rivalling that of the most infamous detectives, but she had The Vision. And she knew in her guts that you two were just meant to end up together. "Oh yeah? Then what have you thought about our 10 years? We got 'cute little munchkins' in our cards too?" he tossed an arm around her shoulders, snuggling her close to him to teasingly tickle at her exposed waist. "Mmm, for now our cards hold a very very important mission." She answered and he sighed again, knowing exactly where this was heading. "Let me guess, mission 'get your best friend and my best friend together for the last dance to recreate another Bollywood-style romantic scene?" he raised a brow, coming to a stop as they reached the edge of the canopy of lights and fabrics. "It's only been a few hours and you've already gained the boyfriend-telepathy skills. Impressive." She wiggled her brows at him while turning around in his arms, "I need you to find Anakin and somehow get him to agree to dance." Sensing his hesitation she quickly continued, "I know it won't be easy, but you'll manage. Once we get them both here we need to make sure they're on opposite sides of the circle so that when the final song comes they'll be paired together" she finished. "You really have thought this through, huh? I can't guarantee that he'll agree to dance, I mean it's Anakin we're talking about," noticing her pleading pout he rolled his eyes in fond exasperation, "but I'll try."

With that, he left and she walked to where you were standing, finishing up talking to some old lady, no doubt held hostage to some good ol’ ‘I knew you since you were thisss little’ talk for the past few minutes that the two had spent whispering their plan, but she quickly patted your cheek and left. "So, tonight's the exclusive dandiya night," she wiggled her brows like it was supposed to mean something, it was. You laughed, not understanding her implication. "What about it?" She rolled her eyes good-naturedly, "it's dandiya dumbass. As in, you know, pairs dancing," she continued when she realised your light bulb was still dim. "Oh," you hadn't thought about that, too caught up in the dance competition to care about the other stuff. "Yeah, ‘oh.’ So, who you gonna choose?" "Um...you?" though it came out unsure. "I appreciate the sentiment babe, I really do. I would choose you too–" You raised a brow at that, "but?" "But'" she made a show of dragging out the word then throwing her arms out to her sides, "look at the crowd around you, there's so many kids our age, there's quite a few guys our age too." And finally you caught onto her line of thoughts, narrowing your eyes you shook your head. "Absolutely not. We are not doing this tonight, well I mean you're settled, so I'm not doing this tonight." But the fates seemed to be on her side that night, as she noticed Krish and Anakin talking a few paces away towards the outskirts of the canopy while you both stood at the centre, you hadn't noticed them yet but she could see Anakin shaking his head in a firm no as well. Gosh why were the both of you so difficult? But she also noticed another opportunity walk towards you, and a hopeful scenario played out in her head, courtesy of The Vision. And so she immediately got to work.

"Hey AJ!" she called out to the guy just about to walk by you a few steps away, "didn't you mention that you don't have a partner for tonight's dandiya?" Your eyes widened and you subtly tried to pinch her to stop her from saying the next words but it was too late, "My best friend here also doesn't have a partner, would you mind pairing up with her if you haven't already found someone else?" In speaking to the guy, both of you had turned to fully face him, so she couldn't see Anakin’s reaction anymore. She hoped he had heard what she had just asked this guy. He had. While the two had been devising their plan off to the side, you had been standing at the centre of the canopy taking time to clear your mind and cool yourself. Your gaze was immediately drawn to the gorgeous lights and colourful fabrics that hung above you, mesmerised by how pretty they looked standing out against the dark nighht sky beyond. And though you may never know, Anakin had spotted you right then, standing there in your pretty red ghagra, face tilted to look above you, and it had looked like one of the most gorgeous things he had ever seen, you had looked so pretty with all the lights gleaming in your eyes. And though he was too far to see it, he knew your gaze held that golden twinkle that shone every time you were genuinely happy, though he had hardly been on the receiving end of it. So he had always observed from afar, just as he was doing tonight. His thoughts had been interrupted by the movement of someone approaching him in his periphery. It turned out to be Krish, who clapped him on the back as a greeting and then asked him if he had eaten anything to which Anakin's mind flashed to the almost nauseating sweetness of the tooth-rotting dessert he'd had, immediately followed by the image of the delicate jewellery around your ankle and he quickly shut the door on that thought, instead answering with a single nod.

"Good, good 'cause you're gonna need some energy for a while." Anakin only raised an inquisitive eyebrow in response, while Krish thought of the best, most convincing way to... well, to convince him. "Y/N needs a partner..." "Okay…?" "For the dance, I mean. She needs a partner for the dandiya, she doesn't have one..." he trailed off again, should he just be straightforward with it? "It's you." "What?" Anakin's head snapped to look at him like he was insane. "It's you. You're going to dance with her." "What the fuck? No, I'm not?" it came out as a question because he was baffled as to how his own best friend could say something as dumb as that. Dancing? him? That's fucking funny. "Yes, you are. She needs a partner. You need a partner. The solution is obvious." "Like hell it is. I don't need a partner, 'cause I'm not fucking dancing." He shook his head decisively. "You want to though. You know you want to dance with her." Krish said with a pointed look. "And just what the hell made you think that?" "I'm your best friend, Ani. Do you think I'm blind or—" "Hey AJ!" Aamani's voice had carried over to the two of them, halting their conversation as their attention was now on the two of you, though your backs were turned to them. Aamani's voice was somehow loud enough that they got the gist of it, she had asked this AJ to be your partner, and from the way he walked over to the two of you, your best friend introducing you to each other, him shaking your hand and the dazzling smile you gave him in return, Anakin felt an irrational sorts of a burning pit in his stomach. "Well, looks like the deal's done. She's got her fucking partner." He pushed off the pillar he’d been leaning on, walking away. "Wait! Dude! Where you go—" "Out." and with that he quickly walked towards the back exit of the ground, walking through the gates and out into the cold night. But he had been wrong. AJ hadn't yet agreed to dance with you, or rather Aamani hadn't given him the chance to, stalling him by telling you that he was studying the same thing as you, though he went to a different university. She had been buying time, hoping that any second now, Anakin and his impulsiveness would come barging and say that you've already got a partner. But time was running short as the conversation between the two of you came back to the topic of tonight's dance. "So, you don't have a partner for the dandiya either?" she heard him ask. Where the hell was Anakin? But her movie-like vision for his entrance onto the scene immediately shattered when she turned to see what was holding him, only to see Anakin nowhere in sight and her boyfriend standing alone with a small frown on his face. Catching his eyes she sent him a questioning look, to which he only shook his head dejectedly. And she knew her plan had failed. For her, at least. Because when she turned back around, she saw you agreeing with AJ to meet up under the canopy before the start of the dance before he excused himself, mentioning something about helping move the chairs or whatever. You too said something about meeting up with one of your older hometown friends you'd run into right before the dance competition. You'd promised to come find her when you were free to catch up on things. And so you left as well.

But at that point, Manu could only think about how wrong this was. She knew it was her who had asked AJ to dance with her best friend, so she couldn't blame him. But Anakin – Anakin she could blame. And she could also just about drag his ass back here to ask him what the hell was he doing? With the way the whole payal scene had gone, and knowing Anakin's possessive nature, she was almost 100% sure he'd metaphorically sweep you off your feet (before literally sweeping you off your feet during the dance). So why the hell was her best friend going to be dancing with a guy she was (frustratingly) getting along with instead?

Krish had walked his way back to stand behind her, but not even his warmth and the comforting palm he ran up and down her bare arm could stop the disappointed frown pulling on her lips. She turned to her boyfriend with a concerned expression, "Did I just accidentally push my best friend towards the wrong guy, with the right guy storming off to who knows where?"

a/n: so.... there's 4 more nights left... do you think they'll ever get their dance? 👀

A/n: Thank you all so much if you spent your time on this trash wreckage fuelled by finals stress and unfulfilled dreams </3

Would love to hear feedback on this one! Don't hesitate to send me any ques or just anything that comes to mind relating to our dearest love-haters and the overzealous matchmakers ;)

Hindu Wedding Ceremony Captured by Atlanta Wedding Photographers

This week's wedding is Ananya and Akshay, two of the most generous and hardworking people I have met in a long time. Both are in med school and in the middle of their rotations, which can be up to 80 hours a week.  When Anayna left the wedding after the ceremony, she went back to work the next day,helping sick people in need.   

Ananya contacted me about 5 months ago for her wedding. She explained to me that this was going to be the typical 2-day affair with Sangeet and Mehndi on the first night and Baraat and Hindu ceremony the second day.  It would be a combination of northern and southern Indian traditions. I told her how much I loved Indian weddings. They have the best food and by far the best dancing!   

The ceremony was held at Shakti Mandir temple south of Atlanta.  It consists of a couple of very large buildings.  The first is the temple where people come to worship and exterior of the building is based on Hindu temple architecture.  The exterior walls are decorated with Hindu symbolism such as elephants, peacocks and flourishes. On the top of the temple it is adorned with 3 large spires called a shikhara.  This structure symbolizes  the mountain peaks of northern India.  The second building is a community center broken into two large rooms.  Room one is sparse so it can accommodate large training activities or indoor games. The second large room of the building I would call a ballroom where there is a stage, carpeted floors and large chandeliers.  This is where the wedding ceremony and reception were held. 

The first night of the wedding we started at the Kimpton Hotel where the families were staying.  The hotel has a nice rooftop lounge that overlooks the Porsche testing racetrack.  We took a few formal photos of the bride and groom there.  We also invited the families staying at the hotel to the rooftop to take family photos before the Sangeet. Once we were done it was time to go to the temple to the Sangeet. 

The Sangeet is my favorite part of the wedding.  The Sangeet is a prewedding celebration usually held the evening before the ceremony.  It is where the bride and groom's family and friends gather to sing and dance.  This celebration is usually done in front of the bride and groom to entertain them and show them how much they care for them.  The dances can vary from kids to large adult groups with intricate coordinated dances like in a Bollywood movie. There were a couple of dances that really stood out.  There was one where this 12-year-old girl did a great dance with a scarf flowing around and for the finale she put on heart-shaped sunglasses.  Then there was a group of coworkers from their hospital that did an awesome job.  You could tell there were many hours of practice.  Then at the end there was a surprise dance where two of the grooms favorite cousins brought up the groom and they did a fully choreographed routine.  At the end of the dances there was an open dance floor where everyone danced until late. 

The next day started with the Baraat. It is a tradition where the groom and his family dress up and go to the bride's house or wedding venue.  It is a parade of family members singing to music and in this case the groom rode a decorated horse to the venue where the ceremony was being held.  At the venue the groom and family were greeted by the bride's family and the priest. Gifts were exchanged and garlands were placed on family members.  When the groom came into the ballroom at the venue, he and the bride were hoisted up on the guest's shoulders and paraded to a swing, where family members gave them food and prayers.   Then they moved on to the ceremony where the groom was escorted to the stage with his mom and dad, and the bride was escorted by her sister and family members.  The ceremony was beautiful.  It consisted of exchanging gifts that symbolize bringing families together.   

It was an honor documenting Ananya and Akshay's wedding!  They are a caring couple who are blessed with loving family and friends. Congrats you two!

Top-Rated Wedding Planning Services in Ahmedabad

Ahmedabad, a vibrant blend of tradition and modernity, is fast emerging as one of India’s most sought-after wedding destinations. From lavish palatial settings to heritage venues steeped in history, this city offers a canvas rich in cultural flair. But behind every dreamy mandap, synchronized sangeet, and flawlessly choreographed baraat lies a team of professionals who turn fantasy into reality—wedding planners.

When it comes to orchestrating the perfect celebration, the top wedding planners in Ahmedabad are known not just for their logistical prowess, but also for their aesthetic sense, local knowledge, and emotional sensitivity. They don’t just plan weddings—they craft experiences.

The Soul of a Gujarati Celebration

Weddings in Ahmedabad are a unique confluence of color, culture, cuisine, and community. The city is deeply rooted in traditions, yet its youth brings a contemporary twist to celebrations. Whether it’s a grand destination wedding in a royal haveli or an intimate affair in a boutique resort, the wedding planners here are experts at balancing the old and the new.

Top planners in the city understand the nuances of Gujarati rituals—like the mehendi, garba, mandap muhurat, and grah shanti—while integrating modern events like cocktail parties and themed pre-wedding photoshoots. This cultural dexterity is what gives Ahmedabad’s planners an edge.

What Makes Ahmedabad’s Wedding Planners Stand Out?

Personalization is Key No two weddings are alike—and the top planners treat each event as a blank canvas. From personalized wedding invitations handcrafted with regional artistry to menus curated around family favorites and couple stories reflected in decor, they go beyond the checklist. Their aim is to tell a story—your story—through every touchpoint of the celebration.

Strong Vendor Networks Ahmedabad is home to skilled artisans, designers, and caterers, and the top planners have long-standing relationships with the crème de la crème. Whether it’s securing the best bandhani or patola outfit for the bride or bringing in celebrity makeup artists, their networks ensure you get top-notch service without unnecessary stress.

Design Sensibility Be it a rustic mehendi garden setup with traditional charpais and colorful drapes, or a glamorous ballroom wedding inspired by Mughal grandeur—Ahmedabad’s leading planners bring a refined aesthetic sense to every celebration. They work with mood boards, 3D renderings, and mock-ups to ensure your vision is executed flawlessly.

Full-Service Coordination The top-tier planners in Ahmedabad typically offer end-to-end services. This includes venue scouting, decor, theme conceptualization, hospitality management, artist coordination, logistics, food and beverage planning, entertainment, and even honeymoon curation. Their goal is to let the couple and their families enjoy the moment while they handle the chaos behind the scenes.

Popular Themes and Trends in Ahmedabad Weddings

Wedding trends evolve, but in Ahmedabad, there’s a beautiful balance of innovation and rootedness. Over the years, planners in the city have mastered the art of blending traditional themes with contemporary elegance.

Heritage Weddings: Think weddings set in century-old stepwells, courtyards of havelis, or historical fortresses. These weddings often feature folk music, traditional cuisine, and rituals performed in ancient settings.

Floral Fantasy: From marigold-heavy haldi ceremonies to dreamy pastel peonies for the main wedding day, florals are an ever-popular theme. Top planners work with florists across the country to create immersive floral experiences.

Minimalist Luxe: A growing trend among urban couples is minimalism with a luxury twist—understated elegance with attention to detail. Neutral color palettes, bespoke menus, and intimate guest lists characterize this style.

Bollywood Nights and Garba Galas: A big part of any Gujarati wedding is music and dance, and the planners here make it unforgettable with choreographed performances, celebrity appearances, and immersive sound and light shows.

Destination Ahmedabad: A Wedding Hotspot

Thanks to its accessibility, infrastructure, and cultural allure, Ahmedabad is increasingly chosen by NRIs and out-of-town families as a wedding destination. The top wedding planners offer customized destination wedding packages, including guest coordination, local tours, traditional welcome ceremonies, and transportation.

From the airport pick-up adorned with folk dancers to heritage walks for guests, planners ensure the wedding is not just an event but a celebration of the city itself.

Client-Centric Approach

What truly sets the best wedding planners in Ahmedabad apart is their approach. They become confidants, therapists, friends, and problem-solvers during one of the most emotional periods in a couple’s life. Their experience helps them anticipate issues before they arise, and their empathy ensures they handle every challenge with grace.

Most of them offer multiple meetings, detailed timelines, budget management tools, and constant communication to keep clients in the loop without overwhelming them.

Conclusion :

Planning a wedding is one of the most joyous, yet overwhelming, journeys a couple and their families embark on. In a city like Ahmedabad—where every lane echoes with history, color, and community spirit—wedding planners bring structure to dreams.

The top wedding planners here don’t just organize an event; they celebrate your love story, your roots, and your future. They are artists, engineers, therapists, and storytellers rolled into one, ensuring that every “I do” is framed in beauty, culture, and perfection.

So, if you're dreaming of a wedding that’s unforgettable for all the right reasons, Ahmedabad’s top wedding planners are ready to bring your vision to life—one perfect detail at a time.

What Common Mistakes Should You Avoid in Wedding Choreography?

Wedding choreography is now one of the most anticipated parts of Indian wedding celebrations. It’s where emotion meets energy, tradition merges with trends, and families come together to put on a show that’s both heartwarming and entertaining. Whether you’re planning a romantic couple’s first dance, a sangeet performance, or a fun family medley, one thing’s for sure—you want it to be flawless. In pursuit of the Best Wedding Choreography in Gaur City, it’s just as important to know what not to do as it is to know what works.

While choreographing a wedding dance can be magical, many couples and families unknowingly fall into common traps that lead to awkward performances, last-minute stress, or underwhelming results. Here, we explore the most frequent mistakes in wedding choreography and share expert advice on how to avoid them—so your big day dance is everything you dreamed of and more.

1. Starting Too Late

One of the biggest and most common mistakes couples make is delaying their dance preparation. With so many elements to manage—venue, outfits, catering—dance rehearsals often get pushed to the bottom of the priority list. But wedding choreography requires time: time to learn steps, time to practice, and time to perfect.

If you’re aiming for the Best Wedding Choreography in Gaur City, early planning is essential. Ideally, you should begin rehearsals 4–6 weeks before the wedding. This allows time for multiple practice sessions, revisions, and incorporating feedback. Rushing choreography last-minute can lead to anxiety and underprepared performances.

2. Choosing Songs That Don’t Suit Your Personality

It might be tempting to copy trending Instagram dances or viral wedding reels, but what works for one couple may not work for another. One major mistake is selecting songs that don’t resonate with your personality, story, or comfort level. For example, choosing an ultra-fast track when you're not confident in fast movements could set you up for stress on stage.

The best wedding choreographers take time to understand your preferences, skill level, and emotional story before picking the perfect track. Whether it’s a soft romantic number or a high-energy Bollywood beat, the song should feel authentic to you.

3. Skipping Professional Help When It’s Needed

Many people underestimate the value of a professional choreographer. They assume they can self-learn from YouTube or let a friend help out. While that might work for casual dancing, if you're aiming for something polished and memorable, this can be a serious mistake. Poorly choreographed performances tend to look disjointed, lack timing, or feel under-rehearsed.

Seeking out the Best Wedding Choreography in Gaur City means you’ll have trained experts who can:

Teach steps that suit your skill level

Ensure synchronization in group dances

Guide your body language and stage presence

Customize moves to fit your venue space

Professionals also know how to handle diverse age groups and create inclusive, audience-friendly performances.

4. Overcomplicating the Dance Routine

Sometimes, in the quest to impress guests or outdo others, couples choose choreography that’s too technical or complicated. This often backfires, leading to stiff performances, missed steps, or complete stage freezes.

Great choreography doesn’t have to be overly complex—it just needs to be executed well. Simpler moves done with confidence and style always outperform complicated routines done poorly. The best choreographers will focus on clarity, rhythm, and expressions rather than unnecessary complexity.

5. Ignoring the Importance of Expression and Emotion

Dancing isn’t just about movement—it’s also about expression. A major oversight in many performances is dancers focusing too much on getting the steps right and completely ignoring facial expressions, energy, or audience engagement.

The most memorable wedding performances come from genuine joy, romance, or even humor. The professionals behind the Best Wedding Choreography in Gaur City emphasize body language, eye contact, and storytelling, which help your dance stand out not just technically, but emotionally too.

So remember: smile, connect with your partner or co-dancers, and enjoy every second. Audiences notice energy more than perfection.

6. Not Practicing Enough (or Practicing Too Much)

Lack of rehearsal is an obvious mistake, but the opposite—over-practicing—can also be problematic. Too much practice can lead to burnout or make the routine feel mechanical.

The key is balance. Schedule regular rehearsals, but also allow time for rest and fun. Shorter, focused sessions (30-60 minutes) spread over a few weeks work far better than exhausting marathon sessions in the final days. Quality matters more than quantity.

7. Forgetting About Stage and Space Constraints

Another common error is designing a choreography routine without considering the actual dance space. A beautifully crafted performance can fall apart if the venue’s stage is too small, the surface is slippery, or there are unexpected obstacles.

Always confirm stage dimensions and practice at least once in similar spatial conditions. If your venue is in Gaur City, share those details with your choreographer. Experts offering the Best Wedding Choreography in Gaur City usually incorporate these factors early on to avoid mishaps during the event.

8. Neglecting Costume Compatibility

Outfits play a big role in how choreography looks and feels. A common mistake is not factoring in costume comfort or mobility. Heavy lehengas, slippery shoes, or tight sherwanis can make it hard to move freely or hit poses correctly.

It’s crucial to try at least one full rehearsal in your performance outfit or something similar. Choreographers can adjust steps based on what you’re wearing—ensuring you stay elegant and comfortable on stage.

9. Overcrowding the Stage

Including too many dancers in a small space can lead to chaos, poor visibility, and lack of synchronization. Sometimes, in an attempt to involve everyone, couples forget to assign roles or structure the performance properly.

An experienced choreographer can design a rotating routine, where smaller groups take turns, avoiding overcrowding while keeping the performance dynamic and inclusive.

10. Not Having a Backup Plan

Whether it’s a last-minute injury, song malfunction, or missing participant, weddings are unpredictable. One critical oversight is not preparing for such possibilities.

You should always:

Keep a backup speaker or sound system

Have a simplified version of the routine as Plan B

Record the choreography in case someone misses rehearsal

Assign a coordinator to manage performance flow on the big day

Professional choreographers can guide you through contingency plans so nothing ruins your moment.

Sherwanis for Pets: The New Wedding Essential – 15 Buttons

Let’s take a moment to appreciate just how extra Indian weddings are. From the week-long celebrations and color-coded functions to the overflowing buffets and choreographed dance performances, they’re less like ceremonies and more like full-blown festivals. But amid all the glitz, glam, and gorgeous lehengas, there’s been one new fashion icon quietly stealing the spotlight—and no, it’s not the cousin from London.

It’s your dog. In a sherwani. Yes, you read that right. Pet sherwanis are here. And trust us—they’re not just a trend. They’re the new wedding essential.

At 15 Buttons, we believe your furry friend deserves a front-row seat and a front-page fashion moment. In this article, we’ll walk you through why sherwanis for pets are redefining wedding fashion, how to style them right, what makes our collection different, and why this is one bandwagon you definitely want your pet to ride.

The Rise of Pet Wedding Wear

Let’s rewind a bit. A decade ago, pets at weddings were rare. Maybe they’d show up for a quick photo op or sit quietly in a corner. But fast-forward to today? They’re the ring bearers, baraat dancers, and bride’s best friends. And with this rise in visibility comes the natural desire to dress them up—just like any other family member.

Sherwanis, with their regal structure and festive elegance, are the perfect blend of tradition and flair. They scream celebration, and honestly, have you ever seen a golden retriever in a velvet maroon sherwani? Heart. Melted.

Why Sherwanis Are the Perfect Choice

While there are tons of pet outfit options out there—bandanas, tuxedos, even lehengas—sherwanis strike the perfect cultural chord for Indian weddings. Here’s why they’re so special:

1. Cultural Resonance

Sherwanis are deeply rooted in South Asian tradition. Worn by grooms, brothers, and even trendy uncles, they represent formality, elegance, and festivity. Dressing your pet in one doesn’t just look cute—it adds emotional value. They become part of the moment, part of the tradition.

2. Versatile Design Options

Whether your wedding theme is minimalist ivory, royal gold, or wild Bollywood glam, there’s a sherwani to match. At 15 Buttons, we offer sherwanis in cotton-silk blends, brocade patterns, zari embroidery, and even mirror work. Some are subtle. Some are jaw-dropping. All are fabulous.

3. Photo-Worthy Looks

Let’s be real: weddings today are made for Instagram. And your dog in a perfectly tailored sherwani? That’s content gold. Be prepared for guests to line up for selfies with your pup.

What Makes 15 Buttons Pet Sherwanis Stand Out?

Here at 15 Buttons, we didn’t just throw together some fabric and call it fashion. We went deep—because when it comes to your pet, it’s not just about looking good. It’s about comfort, safety, and craftsmanship.

✨ Comfort-Focused Tailoring

Our sherwanis are designed with your pet’s anatomy in mind. We use lightweight materials, breathable linings, and smart closures (read: no scratchy buttons). Your dog can move freely, chill under the buffet table, or join the dance floor—all while looking like royalty.

✨ Size-Inclusive Fit

From tiny Chihuahuas to stately Labradors, we’ve got fits for all breeds. And not just “S, M, L”—our size guide is based on real pet measurements. Bonus: custom fittings are available for the extra-fancy furballs.

✨ Easy On, Easy Off

Weddings are hectic. Your pet’s sherwani shouldn’t add to the stress. Our outfits are equipped with velcro or snap buttons for quick dressing and removal—even if your dog suddenly decides he’s done with the baraat.

✨ Design Aesthetic that Slays

Think royal blues, burnt oranges, emerald greens. Think mirror work, golden trims, and handcrafted embroidery. Every piece in our collection is a blend of modern pet fashion and traditional Indian artistry.

Real Talk: What Do Dogs Think?

You’d be surprised how many dogs love dressing up—especially when they see the attention it brings. Most pups wear our sherwanis with total pride, especially if they’re used to clothing. That said, we always recommend a trial run. Let them wear the outfit around the house a few days before the event. Treats help. So does a mini fashion show.

Styling Tips: From Haldi to Reception

If you’re attending (or hosting) multiple functions, don’t hesitate to plan a wardrobe arc for your dog—yes, really.

Haldi Ceremony: Go for a yellow cotton sherwani or kurta. Something breathable and low-key.

Sangeet Night: Bring out the bling. Gold embroidery, sequins, maybe even a little collar accessory.

Wedding Day: Royal sherwanis in rich fabrics—maroon, navy, or ivory—with layered details. Add a matching safa (turban) for maximum impact.

Reception: Tone it down with a sleek silk sherwani or even a floral fusion print.

Bonus points if you coordinate with your own outfits. At 15 Buttons, we’re big on pet–parent matching fashion, and trust us—it makes for unforgettable photo ops.

A Personal Note: Why This Matters

Let’s get a little emotional for a second. Weddings are about bringing people—and animals—together. They’re a celebration of bonds. And for many of us, our pets are our emotional anchors. Dressing them up isn’t frivolous. It’s meaningful. It’s a way of saying, “You matter. You’re part of this chapter.”

And let’s not forget the pure joy of seeing your dog strut in a sherwani with their tail wagging like they own the baraat. That’s the kind of happiness money can’t buy.

Final Thoughts: Tradition, With a Twist of Tail

Sherwanis for pets aren’t just adorable—they’re a reflection of how far we’ve come in celebrating our four-legged family members. At 15 Buttons, we’re not just making clothes. We’re making memories.

So the next time someone says, “Wait, your dog has an outfit for the wedding?”—just smile, point to their tiny embroidered collar, and say, “Of course. He’s part of the groom squad.”

Because if sherwanis are good enough for your brother, your best friend, and your boss’s son, they’re definitely good enough for the one who’s always had your back—even when the dhol gets too loud.

Explore our Pet Sherwani Collection today at 15button.in Where paws meet tradition, and style knows no species.
