Kundans still rule.

Aishwarya wore them for her wedding in 2007, Rakhi Sawant donned it for her Swayamvar a few months back, and Shilpa Shetty swore by them for her wedding.

Kundans/Polki diamonds are here to stay and are still the hot favorite flavor for the wedding jewellery. While Kundan have been here for many years, but post Jodha Akbar the patterns have changed dramatically.

From smaller uncut diamonds set in gold casts symetrically with traditional ruby and emerald hangings along the border of the necklace they have now moved to big bold unsymmetric polki stones with a few large ruby or emeralds. Ofcourse as the polki grow bigger so does the price tag, but for the fashionistas with deep pocket it seldom matters.

So if you are wondering which one to wear for your wedding : uncut diamonds (polki) or a diamond set, play it safe and go with polkis. You can never go wrong with them.
