On making her OTT debut for her Bridal wear fashion line, designer Natasha Dalal said, “Designing has always been a passion, and there couldn't have been a better opportunity to make my OTT debut. Say Yes to The Dress is a highly appreciated show around the globe and being a part of it is an amazing experience! Creating a dream outfit for a bride is such an honour for me. Every bride is unique and watching her eyes sparkle when she sees her dream outfit unfold in front of her makes up for all the effort that goes into the process of bringing it to life. I’m excited to be part of this show as it manages to give everyone a glimpse of how a bride feels just before saying Yes To The Dress!”

“I have been following this reality show for a while and it's great that such a format is coming to India. Dressing brides for their special day and curating their dream ensemble has always been the best form of experience. Whilst the journey of curating an outfit for the bride is thrilling, it's a matter of great responsibility, as we are helping someone create their most special memory. They trust the designer with all their heart to translate their wishes and desires. However, the most challenging part is to convince and break through the stereotypical expectations of bridal trousseau but at the end the result is always so emotionally beautiful. A wonderful team creates magic and ease of a happy shoot and working with discovery+ was a great experience. All in all, it was fun, exciting and engaging to document the bridal designing process”, said designer Neeta Lulla
