However the fashion scene was a bit of a disappointment. The A-listers of bollywood fell short of giving us much to be impressed with and I guess a lot of stars gave the event a miss. Nevertheless, here's presenting some good AHA! fashion moments with the not so good OH NO ones too.
For a change let's start with the boys. It was really hard to find something worth showcasing here. Took hours..seriously. Wonder how many black and grey suits to these people possess and what are the designers doing? When will they push the boundaries, or are they all waiting for someone to do it there ...Hollywood ,I mean and then we follow...boring...
Shahid Kapoor was anyways gleaming and he had his reasons right. He is here mainly due to his new hairstyle that made all the difference to his look.
I like his new hair do , loved it since I saw his pic with Alia Bhatt from the sets of Shaandar
Fawad Khan is so handsome that probably even in his pajamas he looks hot. He is here purely because he is good looking..that's it. His suit otherwise is pretty average.
Manish Ji did a good job with his clean look and yes it's a good break from the black suit. But I wish he had added something more to his Nehru jacket
Siddharth Malhotra- He atleast experimented by opting for a t-shirt instead of the "tide-white" shirt. Not a fan of those shoes though. Good attempt
Oh No-VJ Andy!! What's gone wrong with him.I always admired his dressing sense but here the printed two tone blue jacket is doing no good, it made him look bulkier than he is
Karan Johar -Couldn't have completed my Oh no list without him.White stripes ,a maroon rose with a ever ill fitted suit .. messed up all the way yet again!
Ranbir Kapoor, Varun Dhawan ,Salman Khan...way to boring to be mentioned.
We will start with the good ones. Neha Dhupia may not have made her career in movies but sure has nailed it as a "celebrity with a good fashion sense". She looks chic here with almost no accessories barring the clutch and a neat hair up do. What I don't like is the screaming leather bow on the dress
Richa Chadda- Surprise!!! Always on the receiving end for her styling, the girl managed to put a decent look together for the big night. The gown is a tad bit boring but again like Neha's a neat hair-do with minimalist look, she too got it right this time
Shraddha Kapoor- She opted for a pale flowy gown but it did wonders for the young actress. I like her off-screen more than on-screen. Not all girls her age can carry this colour so well
Sonam Kapoor and Kalki Koechlin- Both the girls get brownie points for being non-conventional. However here these are borderline cases. Sonam,as always looks good but the sarong like skirt with a choker doesn't really go well with the occasion. Had it been a beach wedding this outfit would have been, bang-on
Kalki- She has never shied away from doing what she likes and that's why I guess Nikhil Thampi is one of her favorite designers who is equally experimental.I likes the calf-length sari inspired by traditional dancers from south India but the golden pants were a put-off. Her hairstyle and earrings too left much to be desired for, The belt was a good addition though
Madhuri Dixit -She finally looked comfortable in a strapless gown and wasn't looking over the top. Mrs Nene looked pretty
Rekha opted for bright kanjivaram ...again..... with a potli bag...again....She looked good but aren't we bored of the same look over and over again.She still looks ravishing,so why not try something new
Dia Mirza- Looks like marriage is ageing her. She is one of the most beautiful celebrities out there but a sari with jhumkees to the Filmfare awards night did not do justice to the event. Where is the glamour?
Now the Oh-Nos
Nargis Fakhri -Girl, what is this? You look like a desperate woman in her forties trying hard to fit in her teenage daughter's clothes and added the bangs in a bid to look like Katrina Kaif
Alia Bhatt- Looks like Sonakshi Sinha finally had her revenge. It's Alia's turn to change her stylist.The gown was all over the place, the drape was not at all flattering, brown earrings & hair colour with golden pumps did nothing to the talented lady
The most disappointing picture was presented by Deepika Padukone who otherwise is always well dressed. This look is appalling, done in poor taste. Never again please
The one who stole show was none other than Sonali Bendre, Her structured no-fuss orange gown was a real winner. Loved her cuff ,clutch and the eye make up. She looked like a diva with right amount of glamour and grace put in together for the event. Loved the actress who is redefining the 40's for women in India. Brilliant!
