Manish Malhotra bridges decades of fashion history with his latest masterpiece: a reimagined ‘Bole Chudiyan’ outfit from the timeless ‘Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham’. Ajay Devgn and Kajol’s daughter Nysa Devgan brings the 2001 classic into 2025, modeling it to perfection.
Instagram exploded with the reveal, capturing Nysa’s radiant smile amid opulent fabrics and traditional motifs. Malhotra explains the inspiration: Kareena’s bridal attire in the song that turned family dances into wedding rituals, still emulated today.
His workshop has customized this silhouette for years, from catwalk favorites to celebrity events. ’25 years on, it’s pop culture gold,’ Malhotra shared, underscoring his role in making movie magic wearable.
Starting his career in 1990, Malhotra revolutionized costumes, influencing everyday Indian wardrobes. This iteration with Nysa showcases evolution—same essence, bolder execution.
The film’s enduring appeal lies in Kareena’s confident vibe, fueling social media trends among younger audiences. Malhotra’s genius lies in revival: honoring heritage while captivating the now. As wedding season approaches, this lehenga promises to be the season’s highlight.
