Recently, Harper’s Bazaar Bride decided to do a fun photoshoot at the Guru Shyam Lal Akhada in New Delhi with the Phogat sisters. Kushti journalist Deepak Ansuia took a few candids of the two girls and we cannot get enough of them!
The ladies wore ethnic outfits, traditional jewellery and combined it all with a pair of shades, and we must say that they pulled it off like no one else.
