Doing Desi- Part Deux


For the Diwali festivities, Vidya picked a red suit. Gold jewelry, a bindi and gold-toned peep-toes finished out her look. You like?

In Rohit Gandhi + Rahul Khanna


We aren’t quite sure if this appearance of Vidya was ‘in-character’ and you can’t blame us for being unsure given that Ms. Balan tends to go the sari route almost always.

The pink Rohit Gandhi + Rahul Khanna tunic dress was quite a welcome surprise and while the pairing of it with the striped wedges was cute, that belt just didn’t belong.

P.S. Also spotted her wearing a Dev R Nil taxi print shirt-dress.

In Vaishali S


Vidya picked a Vaishali S dress(?) for a recent store launch. Okay, so we are appreciative of the fact that Ms. Balan is branching out. Baby steps it may be but props to her for attempting to tote that line between her safe personal aesthetic and experimenting with choices. But that said, we can’t find anything that justifies this look. The hair, the jewelry, the outfit, it’s all a tad too much, just so stuffy!

It’s a jewelry store launch, chances are you are going to be plied with jewelry and photographed. Why then pick that dress, that neckline, then wear that necklace? Yeah Vidya, at this point, we’d just throw up our hands too!

More inside.

In Anupamaa


At a press meet announcing a Film Festival she is an ambassador of, Ms. Balan was spotted in an Anupamaa sari. Dramatic eye make-up, a cocktail ring and Manish Arora X Amrapali ear cuffs completed her look.

Show of hands, who else did a double take on seeing those ear cuffs?!

Am not a big fan of the exaggerated cat-eye on Vidya which I find ages her, here anyway. The ear cuffs though, we fully approve! Here’s hoping she surprises us more often.

P.S: See the designer herself wear the sari here.

In Asmita Marwa


Ms. Balan served as Grand Marshall at the India Day parade in Manhattan and for the appearance wore an Asmita Marwa kalamkari lehenga that was quite a welcome change. Also a welcome change, the hair do. From what we see, we really like.

P.S. Catch her in a Shruti Sancheti inside.
