Alia Bhatt’s pista and crème Durga Puja look is all the festive inspo you need
This festive season may just be all about subtle foundations and loud accents. Alia Bhatt's Durga Puja look is proof
Alia Bhatt ditching her elevated basics for a complex and curated look during off-duty hours is an absolute rarity. So when it does happen, it’s almost always a moment.
The actor paid a visit to the Durga Puja pandal hosted by Kajol and Rani Mukerji’s families in Mumbai, late last evening, dressed in custom Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla.
Styled by Rhea Kapoor, Alia, true to her form, steered clear of the bright and loud spectrum opting for a sophisticated pista green drape. The Dhakai Jamdani saree, taken the Gujarati way, featured crisp pleats and a bold gold and silver border which framed the look. The crème-hued chikankari blouse with bronze piping was also a moment in itself. Red bangles, kohl-rimmed eyes and an elaborate pair of kanuatis from Sunita Kapoor completed the look.
Alia took to her Instagram to share snippets from her evening — primarily a post featuring her drop dead gorgeous portraits, the leading shot of which was a very wholesome selfie taken with recent National Award winner Rani Mukerji, long time friend and director Ayan Mukerji, and Tanishaa Mukerji with against Maa Durga's idol. The caption to her post read, “Light. Love. Shakti”.

A vintage ivory Resham saree from the 90s was her pick for the Hope Gala that year.
The WAVES India Summit earlier this year saw her in a peach, coral and fuchsia handwoven Paithani.
For an ad shoot further back, Alia turned belle of the ball in a hand embroidered Zardozi-embroidered gown with a corseted bodice.
Which of these Alia X Abu Jani looks are you looking to recreate this festive season?
