'Chand Bali' Rani!

Rani Mukherjee, the quintessential Bengali beauty of Bollywood has never hesitated in flaunting her love for ethnic jewellery. So, who else can be better christened as "Chand bali Rani" other than her? Don't beleive me? At the end of this post, you are gonna be exhausted, looking at the number of public appearances Rani has made, ornate in such majestic pieces of earrings; most of them being the famous traditional 'Chand Bali' or the hoop earrings of today!So,get set go...!!!

This pair of gold chand bali makes for a grand entrance, dont they?
This is such a majestic peice of jewellery on the enchantress,aint it?
Call this pair of hoops modesty,shall we?
These beautiful 'balis' with a sprinkle of coloured stones are a fountain of joy,are'nt they?
Wow! The exquisite kundan peices of temple jewels earrings makes the look in the Kerala sari priceless,for me! What about you?
This is Rani, in some trendy versions of the hoop earrings!
Though not strictly 'chand bali', this peice of jewellery seems to be one of Rani's favorites!

So,now do you agree that Rani is in Love with her 'chand balis'...so much so that she has gone on to repeat them,several times. There are probably many more,which I have'nt covered(or rather uncovered)! So,now comes the tough question...which pair of 'Chand bali' would you fall for,among these?

Add ons :- In the process of compiling the post, I came across a few other stunning peices of 'chand balis' on Bipasha,Karisma & Kajol. So, here they are, for u!
I love Bipasha's 'balis', but I would have to be cajoled to say the same about Kajol's :)
The trendy bejewelled looks!

I never actually noticed this! But she pulls them off really well. And also she has SUCH a great smile. I think she has the best teeth in bollywood :)

not a fan of rani


i loooveee huge earrings except there is no particular occasion to wear these..grrr

She is so pretty. I love her eyes and smile. She needs to lose those pouts it doesn't work for her.

I love em! Rani really carries them well (although I dont know how anyone can not look good in them) I hope I cant find pretty ones like those in India.

lol i thought it was a new movie .. in the same way as Aishwarya's chokrabali
