In Manish Malhotra. Again.
Ms Chopra, was in Delhi at the India Today Conclave 2009 as a speaker for the session “Youth Forum: Can The Young Drive Change?”. She wore a sheer black Manish Malhotra sari with a halter neck blouse.
Although sari itself was nice but it seemed too cocktail-ish for such an event. You like?

She wore that to a youth change forum? Uhm?
Not event appropriate at alllllll
agreed! this sari was inappropriate for the event. she needs to take a few tips from preity zinta on what to wear at such occassions.
why does she come across as such a bimbo?
Is it just me, or is that saree gorgeous? I mean, it’s very Manish Malhotra, but this one stands out for some reason.
It’s not very event-appropriate though.
@SS: No, I’m totally with you! It’s actually quite subdued for a Manish Malhotra, and would be lovely for a red-carpet event. But for a youth event??? Not so much!
i want her sari!
its a beautiful saree… i love it !!! looks lovely on her
It’s not exactly appropriate but it is pretty. And her speech there was not “bimbo” like. She spoke how she felt and I think she did just fine.
How disappointing she chose a sheer saree to speak at a youth forum. This one seems appropriate at a swanky Bollywood party not for a serious event …
the saree is so uninspired!!! and why would she wear such a tacky belly-showing saree to such an event?? and ahem.. why exactly did they choose her to speak??
@Tanika,
i didn’t hear her speech, so can’t really judge it. when i said bimbo, i meant her wearing that sari at a youth conference. it does come across as very bimbo-ish, as in she didn’t even think beforehand about where she was going and what she was wearing.
further clarification: like she thought she was just going there to look pretty.
saree’s okay, she doesn’t look that great, boring asusual, seriously needs to do something about that!!
what was she thinking wearing that to such an event, she really has got obsessed with showing her body too much thesedays, its just annoying.
Sari is nie but completely inapropriate for the event she was attending – as an aside I saw the filmfare awards on tv and was amazed at how much body makeup this gal was wearing – I mean we all know most actresses pile on the slap at these events but her whole body was covered in makeup that gave her such an ashy appearance – methinks someone likes to cover up exactly how dusky their complexion is!
^ meant nice
LOL – nice sari. But where did she think she was going? The other women were dressed appropriately. Also why is she always posing instead of taking natural pictures?
okay! y would any1 wear this kinda sari to a youth conf? i don’t get it! shez an ex-Ms World and u’d think shez undergone enuf training 2 know what 2 wear on what occasion! well, that was 9 yrs ago (i think!?) and looks like shez starting to forget!
Looks like PC got a haircut that shes trying to hide… bc her hair was pretty weird in the blue MM sari, and now this… i think shes just trying to detract attn from her “haircut?”…
I also agree Payal. it seems very Cocktailish.
btw, I heard that lately there are petticoats available that do not need the long strings that make the waist look bulgy….any idea on that?
Also, what kind of petticoat would you guys recommend to avoid that bulginess on the waist?
thank you
She probably thought they wanted her to dance to “Desi Girl” for the youth… why else would she wear this?
arrgghhh….. DATED….
i would rather take aishwarya rai’s business suits from her pink panther promotional events over this outfit..
im not even joking.
and i also wonder if the back of the blouse is a tiny string tied in a bow or something lol (eg: desi girl from dostana)
PC shud do something abt her hair, and do it PRONTO!
I agree with the others that this is not exactly an event appropriate attire…..she should have worn this sari to amrita arora’s wedding instead! lol She does look nice though
Didn’t Aishwarya wear something like this sari to Zayed Khan’s wedding or some such event?
The sari looks good for a MM creation. Not suited for this event though.
Rashmi – most designers now make satin petticoats with a buttoned waist so there is no drawstring and hence no gathers. These are more fitted to your body.
The bobble-headed look in the 3rd pic is very weird! Scary, even.
She needs a GHD for her hair. Yeah, she could have swapped the sari she wore for Amrita’s wedding.
the sari looks same as preity wore in drona premiere
Why would anyone wear a bikini top and show 12 inches of their stomach at such an event? Has she lost it?
sigh. all that money – no taste. its a nice enough saree – but as everyone before me mentioned – so inappropriate to wear something so ditsy and cocktailish when you’re speaking at a conclave
nice sari but not event appropriate at all
Atleast give her credit for wearing the saree in an appropriate manner and not the one boob showing that is sweeping over bollywood. Hey, if she has a body to flaunt why not flaunt it…
My mom has a very very similar saree n its very very old! Does fashion come back or do designers not use their minds these days n keep coming up with whats been in vogue years ago?
finding nothing special or new in this saree..boring..
plastic much! and how she rambled!!
At least she caught the attention of the youth that was there! HAHA 🙂 Maybe this was an evening dinner event..y’all ever think maybe that’s why she’s dressed like that? Either way….she has BANGING BODY and could pull this sari of oh so well.
CocoNUT,
Her session was held in the afternoon.
she should have worn something more classy.
So uninspiring……….she looks the same and what’s with the hair!!!!!!!!
how inappropriate!!!
will this woman never learn?
she looks tacky and cheap! please woman! stop making these horrible fashion choices
@dn: lmao good one…
bored! saree is ok but she definitely needs to change that hair
Im not a huge fan of hers….
Shes just okay..she looks ordinary..
WOMAN GET SOME ZING!
Not surprising coming from Priyanka Chopra…her style has of late become very blah and boring
i think she has such a nice physique that this saree doesnt look at all tacky on her.. she carries it fine.. and after all she is a bollywood actress.. not a social worker.
