Ananya Panday’s latest saree look shows why she’s the queen of statement blouses

When it comes to ethnic fashion, Ananya Panday never misses a beat. The young star has built quite a reputation for herself with saree looks that manage to feel rooted in tradition yet refreshingly youthful. And once again, she gave her fans major festive fashion inspiration with her latest appearance in a gorgeous olive-green saree.

The saree itself was a picture of understated elegance. Made in a lightweight fabric, it draped beautifully, moving with ease while keeping the spotlight on its intricate mirror-work border. What really made the look pop, though, was the blouse, a style statement on its own. Designed with a deep sweetheart neckline and short sleeves, it was lavishly decorated with sequins, beads, and mirror detailing. The shimmer of the blouse caught the light at every angle, adding just the right amount of sparkle to the muted green drape.

Ananya styled the outfit with thoughtfulness, striking a balance between traditional details and modern minimalism. She wore long, dangling jhumkas that mirrored the intricate craftwork of her blouse. On her wrist, a sleek watch and a delicate bracelet added a contemporary touch, while a statement ring tied the look together.

Her hair was pulled back in a low bun adorned with fresh pink flowers, lending a soft, festive vibe. For makeup, she kept it fresh and radiant, with bronzed skin, highlighted features, defined eyes, and nude lips.

A day before, Ananya welcomed Ganpati Bappa home with her family, sharing glimpses of the intimate celebration on Instagram. The 26-year-old actor also switched into a crisp white kurta set during the festivities, showing off her easy grace in simpler traditional wear. She captioned her post with a heartfelt “Welcome home my favouritestttt Bappa!”, giving fans a peek into the joyous atmosphere at her home.

On the professional front, Ananya was last seen in Kesari Chapter 2. She now gears up for her next big outing, Chaand Mera Dil, a romantic drama backed by Karan Johar and directed by Vivek Soni, alongside Lakshya. She’s also set to reunite with Kartik Aaryan in Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri, which is currently in production and scheduled for release in 2026.
