Kalki, a leading Indian luxury occasion-wear and bridal couture brand, has named Ishaan Khatter and Janhvi Kapoor as the faces of Bride & Groom Couture ’26, the company said yesterday.

As the brand’s new ambassadors, the two lead the campaign for Kalki’s latest bridal and groom collection and will front its bridal, and occasion-wear campaigns across the women’s and men’s lines.

Together, they embody the modern bride and groom the collection is designed for – confident, expressive and rooted in tradition, yet unmistakably contemporary, the company said in a press release.

The announcement arrives with the reveal of the campaign’s first look — a moment that pairs Khatter in a champagne ceremonial achkan with Janhvi in a rich maroon bridal lehenga. Heritage craftsmanship is reimagined through a contemporary lens, with quiet romance at its centre, the release added.

As the story unfolds, the collection will reveal further expressions of Kalki’s vision for the modern bride and groom with each chapter adding to a larger narrative of tradition, individuality and timeless celebration.

“I’ve always believed that style says the most when it feels effortless and true to who you are. What I really appreciate about Kalki is the way it embraces tradition without feeling bound by it. Wearing these pieces felt natural, expressive and very much like myself,” Khatter said.

“For me, fashion has always been about how it makes you feel. There’s something so special about wearing an outfit that makes you feel graceful, beautiful and confident all at once. That’s exactly what this collection does for me, and I can’t wait for everyone to experience it,” Janhvi added.

Kalki founder Saurabh Gupta said the company was delighted to welcome Janhvi and Khatter to the family as they represent the “spirit of today’s India” — modern, confident and deeply connected to their roots.
