Alia Bhatt took to Instagram to share pictures of herself dressed in a white embellished anarkali for Gangubai Kathiwadi promotions. She looked magical in the ensemble. Ranbir Kapoor's sister Riddhima Kapoor Sahni reacted to the post.

Gangubai Kathiawadi is all set to have its big release in theatres, and the film's leading lady, Alia Bhatt, cannot stay calm. With only a few days remaining to the movie's premiere, Alia is leaving no stone unturned to promote the film, including serving major looks inspired by her character Gangubai. Her latest outfit, a white anarkali, is also causing quite the stir on social media and making Riddhima Kapoor Sahni and Karisma Kapoor swoon over the fashion moment.

On Wednesday evening, Alia Bhatt, who is dating Ranbir Kapoor, took to her Instagram page to share several photos of herself from a promotional shoot of Gangubai Kathiawadi. She slipped into a gorgeous anarkali in a pristine white shade, a favourite hue of the star during the film's promotions. She captioned the post, "2 days to go! #gangubaikathiawadi." Celebrity stylist Ami Patel styled Alia's look.

Alia's ensemble in the photos features an anarkali with a plunging sweetheart neckline, sheer full sleeves, gold sequinned embroidery, an organza overlay over the kurta tied with ribbon on the front, gold floral print, and a flowy silhouette.
