Sari Style
Wearing what seemed like a Gopi Vaid sari, Vidya attended the unveiling of her song from her upcoming movie. The song which has Madhuri performing Kathak and Vidya performing Bharatnatyam is probably why Ms. Balan also sported the hair pins denoting the sun (surya) and moon (chandra) that is also worn as part of the Bharatnatyam costume in addition to a full head traditional maang tikka (nethi chutti).
While I like the idea of wearing the head pieces, to me, the classic traditional jewellery clashed with the georgette sari. I would’ve loved this more if she’d worn a classic south silk and gotten rid of the maang tikka.
Update: Turns out she performed at the event and that explains the jewellery but the georgette material just felt wrong.
