I have a mangalsutra. As does every married women in my family. It’s a Hyderabadi tradition, except we call it “kaali poth ka lacha”. My Nani says that har shaadi shuda aurat ko haat main kangan aur kaali poth ka lacha pehna rehna chaiyay

It’s really not to be made such a big deal though, like they show in Bollywood movies. I really can’t remember the last time I touched mine lol

This reminds me a tradition followed in one of our Bihari friends family. He told that in their family, they put afshan / sandal in maang of bride as Hindus put sindoor in maang of their brides.
