Sonam captioned the post, "Wearing my mom’s 35 year old ghar chola. Thanks mama for lending me this sari and blouse, love raiding your closet. Do you know what a ghar chola is and the significance of it? Would love to know your answers in the comment section (sic)."
As soon as Sonam shared the photos, fans reacted in comments section. One user wrote,
"It’s a tradition every Gujju bride must have from the in-laws side as a gift." Another commented, "A ghar chola, meaning new home of the bride (ghar), chola (attire) is given to women who are going to get married. It is gifted from the in-laws of the bride and it’s worn during weddings and when the bride enters her new home." One fan simply wrote, "You look incredible!"
