Celebrated Indian cinema star Alia Bhatt made her first appearance at the prestigious Met Gala 2023, where she looked stunning in a ball gown designed by atelier Prabal Gurung. The event, which is one of the most coveted in the fashion world, was held in New York City, and the Bollywood star walked the red carpet as onlookers cheered.
In a video that surfaced on Reddit, the New York paparazzi mistakenly identified Alia as Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, another popular Indian actor who has already made her mark on the Western world in an iconic manner.
However, Alia handled the situation with grace and poise, flashing a smile for the cameras. Her dress, made of ivory silk tulle and satin face organza, featured an exaggerated basque waist and hand-beaded pearls.

Alia made her entrance at the event with the designer, who helped her with the dress before she walked off. Earlier in the day, Alia had taken to Instagram to explain the inspiration behind her white dress. She revealed that she was inspired by the iconic Chanel brides, particularly supermodel Claudia Schiffer’s 1992 Chanel bridal look.
In her Instagram post, Alia shared that she wanted to do something that felt authentic and proudly made in India. The dress featured intricate embroidery made with 100,000 pearls and was a labour of love by Prabal. Alia paid homage to Karl Lagerfeld, the creative genius behind Chanel, in keeping with the theme of the gala.
The Gully Boy star is set to make her Hollywood debut in the upcoming movie Heart of Stone alongside Gal Gadot and Jamie Dornan. Alia's fans have been eagerly waiting for her Hollywood debut, and her appearance at the Met Gala has only added to their excitement.
Despite the mix-up with her identity, Alia's confident walk and stunning outfit left a lasting impression at the Met Gala 2023. Her poise and grace in handling the situation are a testament to her professionalism and star power in the entertainment industry.
