Alia Bhatt was the undisputed showstopper at Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s sangeet, rocking an ensemble by Pakistani designer Faraz Manan that left everyone dazzled.

The Heart of Stone star’s outfit was a sartorial fairy tale come to life. She made her grand entrance in a black velvet lehenga with a sweetheart neckline and a cropped blouse that oozed sophistication with its delicate straps. The blouse was pure magic, thanks to its regal golden embroidery that shimmered under the lights.

Clinging perfectly to her petite frame, Alia’s lehenga was a flowing masterpiece of golden embroidery, gracefully kissing the floor. She added a dash of drama with a sheer black dupatta draped oh-so-casually over her shoulder. Her statement silver danglers sparkled just as brightly as her star power.

And let’s talk makeup – Alia’s look was all about understated drama with soft, smokey eyes that added a touch of mystery. Her wavy short hair framed her face, blending traditional elegance with modern chic. Alia didn’t just attend the sangeet; she owned it, reminding everyone why she’s a bona fide fashion icon.

At a previous event, Alia’s hubby and Bollywood star Ranbir Kapoor was the one turning heads in a custom tuxedo by Faraz Manan. The pictures were posted to the fashion label’s Instagram grid in which Ranbir can be seen escorting Alia with a suave demeanour, like a perfect gentleman in Manan’s tuxedo.

The jacket, a rich burgundy velvet, features a subtle sheen that adds a layer of opulence. The colour choice is bold yet refined, offering a refreshing departure from traditional black-tie attire. With the jacket’s cut tailored to perfection, the ensemble highlights Ranbir’s athletic frame, complemented by structured shoulders and a slim fit — no wonder, Faraz Manan is the couple’s go-to couturier.
