Styled by Shaleena Nathani, Deepika teamed a brown sequin skirt with a simple full-sleeved blouse with an organza dupatta, setting a perfect old-world glamour. Her hairstylist, Gabriel Georgiou, once again perfected a vintage glam look with a braid, while the makeup artist opted for smokey eyes, pink nude lips, and a hint of shimmery blush to complete the look.

Genelia turned heads as she embraced an elegant all-white look for Anant Ambani's pre-wedding gala night. The stunner opted for a lehenga adorned with intricate hand-embroidered thread and sequin work. She teamed it with a matching blouse featuring tassel details in the front and a dupatta with a heavily worked scallop border. Completing the ensemble were a choker in green, orange, and gold, a giant ring, and a potli bag. Beauty-wise, she kept it subtle with gold eye-shadow, glossy lips, and mascara-laden eyes.
Janhvi Kapoor in Manish Malhotra
Most of the celebrities wore Manish Malhotra for the 'Mela' event of Anant Ambani's pre-wedding celebrations. Janhvi Kapoor stole the show in a hot sequin-covered signature party-ready drape and matching sleeveless bralette-style blouse. While Janhvi has worn a similar pre-stitched number in the past, what managed to grab attention was her hair and makeup. She made a statement with minimal effort. To complete the ensemble, the stunning Kapoor rounded off the look with half of her hair tied up in voluminous curls, glossy lips, and subtle tones for her makeup. She accessorized the look with just a diamond neckpiece.
Karisma Kapoor in Manish Malhotra
While many picked sequin sarees and heavy lehengas, Karisma Kapoor kept it highly unconventional with a front-slit dhoti skirt and jacket, a new style introduced from Manish's collection. The Kapoor sister exuded royalty in an Indo-western outfit accessorized with traditional jewelry, including a matha patti with maang tikka, button earrings, and a traditional panja bracelet. Smokey black eyes, glamorous makeup, and nude lips completed the look, giving off major princess vibes.
Alia Bhatt in Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla gold lehenga
As we all know, Alia Bhatt's Indian wear wardrobe is capable of breaking Instagram, and once again, she effortlessly pulled off a stunning look in a gold sequin lehenga. While dusty gold and nude lehengas are often considered fashion faux pas, Alia managed to defy norms with minimal effort. Styled by Rhea Kapoor, Bhatt accessorized with gold jewelry, including a maang tikka and a pair of chandbalis, making her ready to shine. With open soft hair by Flavien Heldt, dewy makeup, filled eyebrows, highlighted cheekbones, and gold shimmery eyeshadow, she completed the look. Nothing exceptional but her lehenga is a perfect combination of understated elegance and timelessness.
Rani Mukerji in Sabyasachi
Rani Mukerji oozes elegance in a simple yet elegant Sabyasachi red satin saree. Rani paired her sare with a stop-and-stare deep-v neck sleeveless blouse. The power of red saree made her look really stand out, however, the jewelry immediately amped up Mukerji's signature drape. Rani has always favoured a minimal makeup look with hair left open in straight.
Sara Ali Khan in Manish Malhotra pearl lehenga
Sara Ali Khan decked up in a white mermaid-fit lehenga featuring pearls. The combination of sequin and pearl with white set a mix of vintage and modern vibes. Janhvi further accessorized her look for the night with delicate earrings. Golden shimmery eyeshadow, soft smokey eyes, mascara-laden eyelashes, contoured cheeks and a shade of glossy lipstick rounded off the look.
Kiara Advani in Manish Malhotra lehenga
Whether a red-carpet event or attending a wedding, Manish Malhotra is quite a go-to fashion designer for Kiara. For Anant and Radhika's 'Mela Rouge' night, Kiara and Sidharth Malhotra, both decked up in MM. As one can see, this high-glam sequin lehenga perfectly falls in place with Kiara's personal style statement. She teamed it with a bralette top covered in sequins and it features nothing but thin straps.
