In many occasions we have seen the actress in the South Indian attire or performing their family rituals in Tulu style. Even her, godh bharai which is known as 'bayake' in Tulu was in a traditional Mangalurean style.

According to the Times of India, there was a troupe from the south to play Mangalurean music, while white flowers, especially jasmine, and brass urlis (ritualistic Kerala lamps made of bell metal) were part of the decor.

The flowers were traditional south Indian with a strong Kerala theme. The cuisine was also from the south and had dishes from every state in the south, ranging from aapam, malabar parathas, prawns, egg stew, fish curry, roast urlakalang, yene kathrika, hyderabadi biryani, curd rice, steamed fish and paneer in banana leaf.
