Janhvi Kapoor And Ishaan Khatter To Lead KALKI's Bride & Groom Couture '26

Janhvi Kapoor and Ishaan Khatter for KALKI's Bride & Groom Couture '26

KALKI has named Janhvi Kapoor and Ishaan Khatter as brand ambassadors for its Bride & Groom Couture '26 collection.

  • Brand: KALKI, luxury occasion wear and bridal couture
  • Ambassadors: Janhvi Kapoor and Ishaan Khatter
  • Campaign: The KALKI Bride & Groom Couture '26
  • First look: Khatter in a champagne ceremonial achkan, Kapoor in a maroon bridal lehenga

A Dhadak Reunion, In Bridal Wear

Kapoor and Khatter previously shared the screen in the 2018 film Dhadak, and their reunion for KALKI marks the first time they have fronted a campaign together since. The brand's first campaign look pairs Khatter in a champagne ceremonial achkan with Kapoor in a rich maroon bridal lehenga, positioning the pair as what KALKI has described as a modern bride and groom: confident and expressive, rooted in tradition but contemporary in styling.

Fronting Both Sides Of The Line

As the campaign's ambassadors, Kapoor and Khatter will front KALKI's bridal and occasion-wear line across both its women's and men's collections, rather than one actor anchoring the women's wear and another anchoring menswear separately. For a category built almost entirely on wedding-season spend, pairing two actors with an existing on-screen chemistry gives KALKI a ready-made narrative to build a multi-look campaign around, rather than a single hero shot repeated across placements.
