In a conversation with Allure, Alia Bhatt revealed that Karan Johar wanted young girls to think sarees are cool after watching her in Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani. “Karan Johar [the film's director] said, ‘I want you to only wear saris in the film, and we need to make a saree cool. Young girls should be like, 'Oh, I only want to wear a saree,’ ” the actor said.

Did Alia follow his advice in real life though? I do not see Alia sport the saree often. Add to it quite a bizarre claim that saree needed a Alia intervention to make it fashionably cool again. smiley36

Oh please 🙄🙄🙄

Aishwarya made saris cool in 2000s. Then Deepika and even Priyanka did 2010s. As a matter of fact Deepika still wears saris on a regular basis. Wasn’t Madhuri always in a sari in the 90s?

The biggest irony in this is, there’s an episode of KWK where KJo indirectly makes fun of Kangana by mentioning how some people’s airport fashion is showing up in a sari with big glasses on their head. I’m paraphrasing, but you got the gist.

Alia looked absolutely stunning in Rocky aur Rani in those saree looks smiley20 indeed a likable factor of the movie and worked perfectly!! Good vision KJo! smiley20

Movie and real life are different 🤦‍♀️ just because they wanted certain type of look in a movie doesn’t mean she has to start wearing saree in real life!!

Alia wore/promoted Saree at Met Gala international event, where DP wore western outfit smiley36

find some other reasons to bash guys!! smiley36

Oh I can believe t h a t ... a touch of Yashji...however, I would not associate wearing a sari with "cool".

sarees are always trendy in India. Even Kim kardashian, Gigi hadid, Zendaya wore sarees in recent time.

When it comes to movies, who can forget Sushmita sen in main hun na.
