Vidya Balan in Purple Banarasi Saree at Umang 2020

Vidya Balan in Purple Banarasi Saree at Umang 2020 - JDS Varanasi

Vidya Balan‘s fondness for Indian attires, especially sarees is no secret. Hardly anyone among the Bollywood divas can make a saree statement better than her. She truly understands the meaning of carrying Banarasi saree with grace and poise is what makes it look even more regal. She is among one of the few Bollywood actresses who has always done justice to a handloom pure silk Banarasi saree. Time and again, she has dressed in various shades and colors of Banarasi silk sarees, on every occasion when she can. From the red Banarasi silk saree that she wore on her wedding day to the georgette purple Banarasi saree that she wore at the Umang 2020 event, she depicts the epitome of beauty in her traditional saree avatar.

Designed by Gaurang Shah, Vidya Balan drew a lot of attention at the red carpet while donning her gorgeous purple Banarasi saree. She teamed the saree with a matching blouse and styled herself by choosing a pair of chunky earrings. Keeping the makeup minimal, the Bollywood diva opted for smoky eyes and dark shade of lip color. Vidya kept the hairs away from her face and tied them neatly in a sleek middle-parted plait.

The diva who started from a popular television show Hum Paanch will soon be seen in her next movie Shakuntala Devi, which is based on the Indian human-computer.

With the wedding season again around the corner, there would be a lot of things on your shopping list. Having said that, no Indian wedding can be complete without the presence of a pure Banarasi silk saree, at least in one of the functions.
