Front Row Fashion
Wearing Manish Malhotra’s signature embellished saris in different shades of blue, these lovely ladies attended the designer’s show for Mijwan.
Though both Vidya and Gauri wore their saris well, Vidya definitely had the winning look of this match up. The sleek hair and strong red lip complemented the iridescent black-navy sari well.
While Genelia picked an interesting color sari, the styling (and what photographed like heavy-handed make-up) let her down. I am not a fan of that Victorian-collar inspired blouse but if that was the look she had to go with, why not opt for much softer make-up (think kitten eye, flushed cheeks and a nearly nude pink-toned lip)? By wearing her hair down fully or in a wispy low knot, and switching to more understated jewelry, Genelia would’ve made the whole look lot more current. A missed opportunity this!

I dont like these MM signature sarees, bur Vidya looks good. So does Gauri.
Genelia, nope.
I give this round to Genelia. It is an interesting look with a different color that is typically seen in modern sarees. Tired of the same old sequins
Definitely Vidya looks the best but props to Gauri for keeping it simple & classy
I love Genelia’s danglers! So versatile, they can suit many outfits!
Love Vidya here. She has gotten out of her comfort zone and has been slaying her looks the past couple of years. No different here. Love. The colour of the saree helped too.
Liked how Gauri draped her saree but the blouse and matching hair brings down the look several notches.
Genelia’s look is tacky territory. She looks like she came out of a period movie set.
Minus Genelia’s makeup, they all look nice. It’s the usual tacky MM fare but the ladies still shine in a good way.
Vidya is best here… Genelia comes next. Love how statuesque she looks here. And gauri’s blouse is what’s dated here ..
Genelia looks the best. Vidya is a close second – wish she had worn something around her neck.
love the critique on Genelia.
Vidya is same ol, same old — how many versions of this saree is out there, I wonder.
I actually like Gauri best of the three. it’s such a different look for her and the blue and gold is great on her.
I agree! I also thought that Gauri looked the best. Also love the color on Genelia.
Gauri shines in all that blue n gold, Vidya looks good, Genelia is in a pretty color but Wats that top
In these pictures I can see what Priyanka means about Genelia, but saw an instagram reel and she looked radiant.
I like all 3. Gauri looks like she hasn’t aged a day, and is looking better and better.
1st vidya añd 2nd is genelia. Vidya is perfect and Gen’s Pictures are not in genelia’s favor but she was looking good in pap videos love the color, can ignòre the còllar. Gauri is looking better then her previous styling.
Gauri’s saree is so overly done. Ek toh sequin, upar se added golden border. Too much bling!
This round goes to Genelia. She created a fun look out of been there done that sequin saree.
Love the way the saree flows on Genelia… To me she looks the most interesting. Vidya’s blouse to me looks too plain, that saree needed some drama with the blouse. Gauri looks good too
Vidya Balan looks splendid!!
Uhhhh I’m so over these blingy sarees . But of the three vidya stands out because she’s kept it simple .
Manish malhotra really needs to reinvent himself .
