An Almost Ditto!
In either color, it’s a delightful sari and both ladies looked absolutely lovely… We’d be hard pressed to pick a favorite.

Both of them look sophisticated!!!! Way to go Ladies!!!!Very Elegant!!!
I prefer sharmila, but they both look good, I like sharmila’s hair cut, it really sutis her.
those colors are beautiful!
what kind of sari is this?
it cud be a banaras silk..they are not heavy like kancheevaram sarees.
i pick sharmila. that colour is scrumptious.
oooh!!my personal vote would go to jayaji simply because i havent seen her looks this young,vibrant and positively pink in such a looong time! She’s usually safely sticking to beiges/golds white and the likes. It is soo pleasing to see colour on her.
As for sharmilaji, she looks as elegant as ever, and surely someone with royal taste.
Gosh, i cant help but think, that even after 40-50 years of dressing up for this industry, these yesteryear heroines get it so much more right than some of the trashy dressing from today’s heroines(despite so many options).
Here’s to finding everlasting style. cheers.
Cheers indeed. So true. And to think that the young crop have so much more access in terms of clothes, designers, stylists…and yet they unfailingly get it wrong most of the time.
My feelings exactly !
Va va voom mammas !
While Sharmila Tagore looks elegant as she always does, Jaya Bachchan wins this due to the element of surprise. The color, the hairdo with a string of flowers, the batua, the minimal or neutral jewelry(as far as i can see), the lovely smile, the rare well-put-togetherness…lovely.
Sharmila Tagore looks elegant and poised, Jaya Bachchan looks bland, boring and matronly
The sari itself is quite common, nothing out of the ordinary
Going by this event alone looks like the older generation have much better taste.
Both look good, but I prefer Sharmila. Very elegant. I want her necklace 🙂
Oh my! How beautiful and elegant is Sharmila. She looks stunning. I think the color is more age appropriate compared to Jaya’s.
Sharmila Tagore hands down!!
ditto!
Okay, first off, both ladies are just tooo good loooking in their respective outfits. Kudos to Jaya Bachchan for adventuring into Aishwarya-pink land. I thought she worked the color quite well!
Sharmilaji’s saree though much lighter is so elegant and with the popping pink border contrast and just the right amount of ruby jewelry 🙂 steals your heart. Not to mention the striking face and hair. Timelessly Stylish.
Secondly, P&P HOW IN THE WORLD did you gals even remember that Jaya Bachchan’s saree was a ditto of Sharmila’s from way long back Cannes ’09. (Thats pretty long ago in fashion land)
Good eye!!
Agreed really great eye I’m impressed that this was spotted.
What type of sari is this? I really like it and would like to buy one, any pointers?
Any idea when are gonna air these awards on TV?
lovely !!!!!!!! so very lovely !!
I so agree with Anu, P&P u girlz rock ! me too wanna know which designer those sarees are from, wud love to lay my hands on Sharmilaji’s saree 🙂
Just love the jewellery that Sharmilaji is wearing..and the way she had it contrasting it with the light green…
love both the looks flowing hair, light green and the bun/flowers with the pink…
love love love jaya bachchan in this sari….hope she sticks to colors from now on
sharmila for me. i am a sucker for green and this shade is absolutely gorgeous.
Jaya looks fantastic in this bright pop of colour!! And Sharmila is rocking her pastel saree. Both look lovely 🙂
Well… let’s just say Saif’s mom look a lot more elegant and classy than Abhishek’s 🙂 But I do think that fuschia sari wouldve looked great on her bahu though 🙂
Whats the deal with the Saif’s mom, abhishek’mom BS? These women have their own identity that they rightfully earned.
Love the sari!! Any idea where I can purchase it from?
Though they both look good, have to give this one to Sharmila. Her dress sense is impeccable. Her hair and accessories are always nice.
Jaya has worn a mismatched blouse(cream) i wish she wore a light pink blouse, the same as her border and pallu. also somehow the color pink doesnt suit her. a deep red or maroon wud suit her best
oh my god! Sharmila Tagore looks absolutely gorgeous! a beauty with an awesome smile !
i liked her combination of contrasting ruby set with green saree… and the elegance with which she carries herself .. its not often that you get to see her dressed to kill and loved this departure from her usual subtle dressing sense..
shermila looks lovely…her hairstyle and jewellery is adding charm in her personality…i think jaya should get a haircut too!!
Could someone please let me know what this type of sari is? Looks like Benares silk but not in gold, but in thread? Any special name to this type of sari? I see that Sharmila Tagore wears such saris very often.
