Ranbir as traditional Bengali groom

For his first onscreen wedding, Bollywood heartthrob Ranbir Kapoor might be seen dressed as a standard Bengali groom, complete with dhoti, kurta and the topor (headgear worn by Bengali grooms).

Even though Ranbir did marry Katrina Kaif in Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani, it was shown as a court marriage and never a conventional wedding. But for Anurag Basu's Barfi!, where Ranbir plays a deaf and mute person, he'll be seen as a tender Bengali groom in a conventional Bengal wedding sequence. Since director Anurag is a Bengali himself, he was very particular about Ranbir's look. He saw to it that the costumes looked traditional and everything was perfect to the smallest detail.

Ranbir was very excited for his first wedding sequence for a movie. Both his co-stars Priyanka Chopra and Ileana D'Cruz were also present at the sets that day but you would need to watch the film to grasp whom Ranbir gets married to.
