Mumbai, May 2 (IANS) Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt made her debut at MET Gala 2023 in a white gown made with 100,000 pearls by Prabal Gurung. She said that she wanted to wear something that is 'Made in India'.
Alia took to Instagram, where she shared a slew of pictures from the gala. The 2023 Met Gala is taking place on May 1 in New York City. It celebrates the opening of the Costume Institute exhibition, 'Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty'.
Alongside the pictures, Alia captioned: "'Met Gala - Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty'. I have always been fascinated by the iconic Chanel brides. Season after season, the genius of Karl Lagerfeld shone through in the most innovative and awe-inspiring couture."
"My look tonight was inspired from this and in particular by supermodel Claudia Schiffer's 1992 Chanel bridal look," she posted.
Alia wrote: "I wanted to do something that felt authentic (hello, pearls!) and proudly made in India. The embroidery, made with a 100,000 pearls is a labour of love by @prabalgurung. I'm so proud to wear you for my first Met."
"A girl can never have too many pearls... and the right accessories to complement the look which in our case translated to the bow of pearls on my hair. Oh, and it's white, for my Choup-ED," she concluded.
"Andhadhun" director Sriram Raghavan has confirmed that he is gearing up to launch "Ekkees", the biopic of late Second Lieutenant Arun Khetarpal who was posthumously honoured with Param Vir Chakra for sacrificing his life during the Indo-Pakistan War of 1971.
Few stars can entertain people as Ranveer Singh does, even off the screen. The actor proved the fact once again when he was in the Capital recently, to dance at a high-profile wedding.
Season 13 of the controversial reality television show "Bigg Boss" became more entertaining with the entry of Punjabi model and singer Himanshi Khurana.
If it comes to getting stuck in a situation with the subject of cousin Ranbir Kapoor and his romances, Bollywood star Kareena Kapoor would sure know how to find her way out. Literally, and with tongue firmly in cheek.
