Need Navratri 2025 wardrobe inspo? Take notes from Alia Bhatt, Janhvi Kapoor and Ananya Panday's festive best
Navratri 2025 calls for colour, comfort, and drama. Stars like Alia Bhatt, Janhvi Kapoor, and Ananya Panday are serving all three
Navratri is here, and if your closet feels more ‘plain pujo’ than ‘dance till 4 am’ Garba night, don’t stress. Bollywood has already done the homework for you. From nauvari glam to lehenga twirls and blouses that steal the show, these celebrities are serving all the inspo you need to turn heads this festive season.
Alia Bhatt’s nauvari glam
Trust Alia to make tradition look timeless yet trendy. At the WAVES 2025 summit earlier this year, the actor stepped out in a pink-and-orange Paithani nauvari saree with rich gold zari. The deep-cut blouse added a fresh edge, while her sleek bun with gajra and minimal dewy glam kept the look rooted in simplicity. If you love heritage fits but don’t want to look aunty, Alia’s version is the one to copy.
Janhvi Kapoor’s lehenga love
Janhvi may experiment with modern glam once in a while, but when it comes to ethnic wear, she knows how to serve. At the Shiv Shakti Puja hosted by the Ambanis during the wedding celebrations of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant, the actor stunned in a multicoloured lehenga featuring sequins, floral prints, and a backless blouse. With a polki kamarbandh cinching it all together and other Polki jewels stacked just right, this look is pure Navratri goals.
Ananya Panday’s blouse game
Never underestimate a good blouse — and Ananya’s Kesari 2 promo look is proof. She wore a cyan saree with marigold prints, but it was the tasselled blouse that stole the spotlight. Think orange floral latkans, delicate lacework, and a playful vibe that’s perfect for Pujo nights. Add a bold choker and tiny bindi like Ananya, and you’re instantly Navratri-ready.
This season, skip the cookie-cutter looks and pick your inspo straight from Bollywood’s style files.
