Janhvi Kapoor, known for her impeccable style, is making waves in the South Indian film industry with her Telugu debut in ‘Devara: Part 1’ alongside Jr. NTR and Saif Ali Khan. For the film’s trailer launch, Kapoor chose a timeless classic – the Kanjeevaram sari – showcasing a perfect blend of tradition and modern elegance.
The custom-made gold silk Kanjeevaram, designed by the renowned Manish Malhotra, was a stunning spectacle. Adorned with Swarovski crystals, antique gold sequins, and subtle zari nakshi detailing, the sari exuded regal charm. The ensemble was completed with a scalloped crystal blouse, bold gold jhumkas, and a dainty nose ring, adding a touch of traditional grace. Kapoor’s Instagram caption, “She’s the golden girl of the island,” perfectly captures the essence of her radiant look.
Kapoor’s promotional wardrobe for ‘Devara: Part 1’ is a testament to her method dressing approach, a style strategy she previously showcased in ‘Mr & Mrs Maahi’. This method involves choosing outfits that resonate with the film’s theme, much like Margot Robbie’s iconic Schiaparelli mini dress in ‘Barbie’ or Zendaya’s custom Loewe white stiletto pumps in ‘Challengers’.
Before the Kanjeevaram, Kapoor graced the promotional events with another breathtaking ensemble – a custom dreamy blue draped lehenga sari by Tarun Tahiliani. The icy blue ensemble was paired with a bejewelled blouse featuring delicate pearl detailing, creating an ethereal and sophisticated look.
Her sartorial choices also include an ombre blush pink sari by Nachiket Barve, paired with a hand-embroidered blouse featuring intricate threadwork, pearls, and sequin-embellished floral motifs.
Kapoor’s dedication to method dressing and her impeccable fashion choices are captivating the attention of fashion enthusiasts, making her Telugu debut a sartorial spectacle to remember.
