Actor and MP Kangana Ranaut joined Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta for Hariyali Teej celebrations at the CM's residence on Wednesday. Kangana shared pictures on Instagram, calling Rekha her 'badi behen' and saying the warmth felt like home. She wore a lime green silk saree with a coral-pink pallu, traditional jewellery, and fresh mehndi. The Kanjeevaram-style saree, with tree and bird patterns, matched her known support for Indian handlooms. Kangana also danced and sat on a swing alongside other women at the gathering. Kangana has been promoting local crafts, including Himachali handlooms from her constituency. She earlier wore a coat woven by women from Mandi. Her Teej appearance continues this trend of using public events to highlight traditional textiles.
