Jr NTR chose Gaurav Gupta for the big day. He wore a black velvet bandhgala with a tiger embroidered in gold. Apart from drawing parallels to the national animal of the country, the tiger was also reportedly a nod to the interval scene from RRR, as well as a tribute to the moniker of The Young Tiger used for Jr NTR.

Speaking to Business Today Gaurav Gupta said, "It was important for me to have an element of NTR's persona in the outfit, while also representing being a true global Indian. And it all fits together beautifully with the antique tiger embroidery on the black velvet bandhgala. The tiger is a homage to India as it is our national animal along with a representation of NTR Jr who is also popularly known as ‘The Young Tiger’ and of course to RRR".
