It’s Official

At their engagement, spotted a very dapper Imran Khan in a sherwani and lovely Avantika Malik in a gold and blue lehenga. Okay, so the velvet top was bit of a disaster but we’ll go easy considering it was her big day. Congratulations to the couple.

Update: Imran is wearing a Karan/Varun creation, while Avantika is wearing a Varun Bahl. (Courtesy: HT) (Also, Thanks ‘naina’ and ‘mia’)

  1. aww…I’m not going to say much about Avantika because I do not want to say rude things about a bride to be, but Imran…looks SO, SO adorable in this!!

    Seriously, he looks scrumptious.

    As for Avantika I actually like the skirt portion of her outfit, the intricate work on it is fascinating although a little less sequins would have helped.

    Her hair could have been a lot better though and I’m not really liking the hint of pale blue eyeshadow. But still, she looks luminous and happy which is what is important!!

    And as for her top…I wont even GO there 😉

  2. Oh, I was exited and then it was like OH!

    Avantika is very pretty 🙂

    • hahaha, it was supposed to be me too, so I empathize.

      Imran and Farhan are totally my favorites of the current B’wood actors…maybe because they dont always find it necessary to thrust (sometimes literally) their ‘masculinity’ in your face.

      • Correction- this isn’t really a traditonal kurta, but like you said atleast it isnt *shudders* ‘filmi’.

        I’ve never understood how that word is used to justify all things cheap, gawdy and flashy in terms of clothing.

  3. so sweet…will refrain from commenting on avantika’s outfit, considering it’s her big day and all…how precious does imran look. loooove indian men in traditional clothes (read not filmy) that hark back to a different more sophisticated and genteel time….love love love love love

    • agreed!!! We need to see more Indian men in traditional kurtas and sherwanis!!

      People are always so quick to point out that most women featured on this site wear mainly western clothes, but actually they wear a LOT more Indian than the (few) men featured on here, so this is a really refreshing change!

  4. Imran looks so FAB!! Avantika on the other hand…(its not ‘the’ big day so i am gng to go head and say it) reminds me of the hunch back of notredame.. really like the work on the bottom though.

  5. God.. he looks hot and too be photographed that well on his wedding day.. that would break hearts hehe. What is it that velvet top and those sleeves and that bed cover like lehenga (her big day still…) do they do bridal fittings only in hollywood flicks?

    Reply
  6. oooooh loved her lehenga…it’s gorgeous to the hilt minus her in-your-face velvet top!! I loved the peacock intricacies and the subtle color!! Oh how I wish she would have taken a chunni with a killer short blouse…coz I think bride’s without the mandatory chunni don’t fascinate much!!
    Anyways, wish them many years of togetherness!! 🙂

  7. Imran..OW!!!! Damn he is hotttt. As for Avantilka,that shouldered velvet MM top is disgusting. She looks like Fiona from Shrek but Fiona was better 😀

  8. thats a rather erm..unflattering velvet top on ms malik…..but the dazzling radiance more than makes up for it…i guess its right afterall…. all you need is (indeed )love…congratulations!!!!

    Reply
  9. hmmmm….OK, I will be the devil’s advocate and not refrain from saying that Avantika’s outfit is very What the heyyyyyy!!! This is a fashion blog people and not “Bharat Matrimony”. The words- ‘one shouldered’, ‘puffed’, ‘velvet’ and ‘net’ should never be used to describe a single outfit!! As for Imran, he’s G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S!! Congrats to the couple though…

  10. Avantika is so pretty! 🙂 Not a great outfit but not a disaster either. Imran looks dapper!! Very classic. I like his juttis and his smile in the second picture.
    Congratulations to both of them. Lucky girl, this Avantika. 🙂

  11. Avantika is such an eyesore from top to bottom. the foundation is way off and the dress is beyond fugly. I didn’t even think it was possible to put together something this ridiculous!

    Reply
  12. Seriously, what was she thinking? Velvet? One-shouldered? Part-voluminous-part sheer? Ugh! Thank god he didn’t try to match her, lik emany couples do these days. He looks so damn fine!

    Reply
  13. Avantikas skirt is beautiful, but the top! Seriously she could have done way better than that! Talk about velvet overload! Imrans looking really handsome, lucky girl!

    Reply
  14. He looks good. Her makeup is great. Her hair needs a hairbrush. But why oh why is she channelling a badly costumed disney princess? I really hope she just picked up the outfit at a halloween store and didnt pay big bucks to have it designed and tailored!

    They both look happy. Thats finally what matters no? so its all good. Congratulations.

  15. Is imran wearing a Narendra Kumar outfit? whatever it is i’d really love to know who made it. Imran looks very very good! I already vented out what i thought about Avantika’s look on the vogue blog when these photos first surfaced so i’m not going to be so harsh this time round. They say if you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all….

  16. The skirt part is beuatiful.All she had to do is use same fabric and stitch a traditional lehenga top. Imran looks great. She generally has a good sense of fashion.I am guessing she trusted some designe’s suggestion here.Congrats to them.

  17. Congratulations to the much-in-love, good-looking couple, but her outfit is a disaster! Lehenga? The outfit looks like a period film costume!:( Come to think of it, so does his sherwani, wrong length for his height btw.

  18. Imran looks gorgeous and you guys are really being nice to Avantika by saying her blouse is a bit of a disaster. It’s a FULL BLOWN DISASTER! Velvet has got to go and also the one sleeve look!

    Reply
  19. In an ideal world it would be me standing next to Imran, (definately wearing somthing else!!). However, avantika honey, im sure u’ve realised that this is not an ideal world and dat is definately not an ideal dress!!!

    Reply
  20. Imran does look good…Avantika’s top looks like the designer ran out or fabric making on puffy sleeve…Maybe would have looked better with two “normal” sleeves?? O and no net/ sheer fabric. Love her skirt and the colour… Blue is a nice change from the reds and greens and yellows and pinks and golds and beiges I think…

    Reply
  21. loveee Imran!!! like love him….Avantika…ahem…..blue velvet 1 shouldered top with that net/see thru thing on the sleeve :)…ok so back to Imran…he looks sooo hot!!!!

    Reply
  22. imran looks so elegant. his outfit was designed by karan johar and varun bahl. avantika’s outfit can be summed up in one word – naahiiiinnnn! the skirt part is fine but i’m HATING the medieval wench look of the top. on a positive note, she does look radiant neck up.

    Reply
  23. I love what Avantika is wearing ! If you guys like keeping track on trends, then velvet is a bridal must have ! ( think varun bahl’s couture ) and her skirt is so classy ! the peacock embellishment on her skirt is simply great. Love this !!

    Reply
  24. enough has been said about avantika so I’ll refrain but surprisingly didn’t like Imran either, don’t like that skinny fit on the pajamas (?) on him

    Reply
  25. Ooh they had their engagement party!! How exciting!!!
    They both look so gorgeous & so so happy ^_^
    I hope they’re engagement was as wonderful as they hoped it would be.
    CAN’T wait to see the wedding >_<

  26. i love a man in a sherwani. especially if he’s imran khan. the black and white pairing is really sophisticated, very fresh. but imran’s always been a good dresser.

    avantika’s lehenga is super-pretty, but i wonder what was going on the with blouse? i feel bad. she’s a little top heavy, and the top’s asymmetry is doing nothing for her, sadly. and what a pretty girl too – so radiant on her wedding day!

    Reply
    • I totally agree with you about the asymmetry – India clothing is about symetry… and the one shoulder thing is just highlighting her weaknesses !

      Also the ‘lehenga’ consists of the skirt (ghaghar) and the blouse (choli)… so I guess you meant to say that her skirt is super pretty becasue all in all the whole dress ( lehenga ) is pretty bad.

  27. The use of velvet looks fine, it would have been better if the top had no sleeves at all; having both sleeves would have been a better outcome than this monstrosity. The one sleeve just look like something added after a long delbration.

    Reply
  28. He looks good. It’s a pity nobody helped her pick her outfit, the skirt is lovely but the top is so hideous! Does she not have any friends?

    Reply
  29. I really like Varun Bahl stuff but this was slightly WTHeyy! The lehenga on the runway was soo much more better cause of the gold zardoze(?) work added a much a more regal touch to it… but shes absolutely glowing.. thy make such a cute couple!

    Reply
  30. I personally think the lengha is very attractive, i personally am just not feeling the one sleeve blouse..other than that, the couple looks fabulous! Imran looks royal in her sherwani! they really do make a cute couple!

    Reply
  31. her lehanga is nice but the top not so much…but again she is bride 2 be…they can be OTT 😉 her lehanga reminds me of the armband that shilpa wore for her wedding 🙂
