Ananya Panday Vs Samamtha Ruth Prabhu: Same dress, different drama- who nailed the cutout look?

The glitzy world, while bubbling with fashion moments each day, sometimes gives us iconic looks that echo class and elegance. Yesterday, a bunch of stars gathered for an award night in Mumbai, and the fashion police had a hard time judging them all. Among the many faces was Ananya Panday, the new fashion icon who never fails to serve looks. She was seen in a sexy cutout bodycon dress. But as soon as we saw her, fans spotted the similarity in her outfit with that Samantha Ruth Prabhu donned earlier for the Vogue awards.

So here's our comparison for both the looks, and let's see, who steals your heart, and which outfit would you opt for?

Samantha's version is rich, chocolate brown, earthy and sultry. The matte fabric grounds the dress, letting the geometric cutouts become the hero. She keeps it sharp with loose waves, glowing skin, and minimal jewelry; just gold hoops that echo the understated but confident vibe. Her styling leans into power and poise, making the look feel bold without screaming for attention.

Ananya, on the other hand, takes the same structure and turns it into a full-on sparkle fest. Her shimmering nude gown is drenched in glitter, each sequin catching the light, instantly turning the silhouette into red-carpet drama. Where Samantha's dress smolders, Ananya's dazzles. She pairs it with sleek hair, bronzed skin, and a more theatrical pose, which amplifies the glamour. The dress hugs her frame like liquid starlight, making it the kind of look that demands a spotlight and thrives under flashbulbs.

So, who wins this round? Samantha's look is for the woman who wants to command a room with elegance and strength. Ananya's is for the girl who wants to be the diamond of the night, shining brighter than everyone else. Both take the same canvas and paint wildly different moods.
