{{/usCountry}}The statement stands true because the actor has chosen the traditional garment for many special moments in her life. Alia traded the traditional lehenga for a gorgeous ivory Sabyasachi saree on her wedding day. She married Ranbir Kapoor in a hand-embroidered organza saree. Later, she rewore the drape to attend the National Film Awards 2023, where she received the Best Actress award for her role in Gangubai Kathiawadi.
Alia wore the nine yards for her second stint at the Met Gala. She wore a mint green floral saree designed by Sabyasachi Mukherjee to fashion's biggest night. The exquisite ensemble featured a 23-foot-long train hand-embroidered with silk floss, glass beading, and gemstones.
