A Sehra (Hindi: सेहरा, (Urdu: سہرا) is a headdress worn by the groom during Bangladeshi, Indian and Pakistani weddings. It has garlands hanging that covers the face of the groom. The word also refers to an Urdu poem.
Sehra in poetry [edit]
In South Asian Muslim traditions, especially in Uttar Pradesh and Hyderabad (Deccan), there is a social ritual where the sisters of the groom sing a Sehra, a poem in praise of the groom and pray to God for his future wedded life. The groom follows this by giving cash to his sisters.
It is a genre of Urdu poetry, though there are no specifications for a Sehra except that it should rhyme and be of the same meter. Sehras are generally written by individuals praising their brothers, so they are very varied in style and nature. A good sehra appears in the Urdu film, Razia Sultana; however, this particular sehra was sung by males, quite contrary to the current tradition.
Given name [edit]
Sehra can also be a female given name, roughly equivalent to Sarah, Sara, Serass, just like jaspal singh Serass
