An Almost Ditto!
While Deepika wore a one-shouldered version of this Shantanu and Nikhil Dress, Rima (wife of Shantanu) picked a halter version.
Got a preference between the two?

The one on Rima fairs much better as the “stuff spilled on it” look works much better on her version than that on Deepika. Also, the cut on Deepika’s dress is so bad that its making one of the flattest abs around look flabby.
one shoulder is much better…halter one looks like shes wearing a bib or smthing
I prefer Rima’s dress – but is that black strip of fabric at the hemline a part of the dress or is it her slip showing?? Deepika’s dress makes her look nearly stiff – starched stiff. However, I don’t know why but I always find Rima looking washed out – hardly any make up, dull hair & lack of accessories. She needs to pull off a more groomed look.
and w/ rima u can also see her black slip under it..
the one on rima is so much more stylish …
Rima
Like the silhouette of Deepika’s and the print on Rima’s
Deepika looks beautiful here, but I agree with Addicted…the cut of her dress looks kinda sloppy in the middle. I like Rima’s version better, it’s more interesting..but is that a slip showing under her dress? Tsk Tsk
I love the color and the flecks of gold on it. lovely like a kanchipuram.
I prefer the one shoulder, but should be better structured waist down.
Neither. The color is beautiful on both ladies though. The one shoulder looks neater. I went to school with Shantanu in Toledo, its so bizzaree to see him desgining!!
I’m actually lusting after Deepika’s dress. She looks gorgeous !
i totally <3 deepika’s dress.
any clue if i can buy this online? and how much damage would that be to the wallet? help, pls!
R,
Nop, it is not available online.
i like deepika’s dress she looks good in it…and the other girl looks so washed out
rima’s dress could have been nice if worn better.the front part is just so overwhelming!Love deepika.very pretty
From what I can see..the black hemline of R’s dress is a part of her dress *points to the black parts of the dress* If one looks carefully the colour od the fabric is slightly different as Rs dress has tones of black while deepika’s doesn’t 🙂
Rima’s is more preferable… just hope she wasnt was leaning forward in all the poses…
dipika’s, i do not see anything interesting in it
thanks payal! 🙁
i like the neckline of the one-shoulder one better, but prefer the cut of the halter dress around the midriff.
i must say, deepika is looking ravishing – she looks tanner than normal, and that raspberry colour really offsets it. plus, her hair and makeup are perfect.
It think deepika’s is well cut and she fills it out much better
looks a little like a tablecloth to me!
prefer the one shouldered version
neither but wat a preety lady…deepika is llokin so ordinary in frnt of her…
I like Deepika’s version better. Rima needs more body to fill her style out.
I prefer Deepika’s version…its much sleeker while the halter version looks messy
Deepika looks gorgeous!!!!!
Deepika looks better. The dress makes Rima look dumpy.
