“Special outfit can be worn more than once”: Alia Bhatt on re-wearing her wedding saree

According to Alia Bhatt, it was a “gut feeling” for her to wear her ivory wedding saree again for the National Film Awards ceremony because she wanted to commemorate the momentous occasion with a unique look.

Based on her performance in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s “Gangubai Kathiawadi,” Alia was awarded the National Film Award for Best Actress. She wore the exquisite tilla-embroidered, hand-dyed ivory organza saree, created by Sabyasachi Mukherjee, for her 2022 wedding ceremony with actor Ranbir Kapoor.

“Whenever there is a big event or big moment coming up, you start preparing for it. I instinctively felt like, ‘I’m going to re-wear my wedding saree’. The saree was ideated and done beautifully by Sabyasachi Mukherjee, but it was a lot of me, white and gold combination and certain symbols.”

“It was the garment I felt most myself in. And it was a really special moment for a different reason. A special outfit can be worn for a special occasion more than once,” she further added.

The 30-year-old actor stated, “I don’t think I was doing anything that people haven’t been doing for many years. For those who may already be doing it, they say we are encouraging the conversation more. For those who feel that for a special occasion they have to wear an outfit that hasn’t been seen before, I just wanted to change that a little bit around. I believe it doesn’t matter, it’s the person who is wearing the outfit that matters.”
