Kareena Kapoor’s famous character Pooja Sharma, aka Poo, wore a coral blouse and palazzo set to dance on Bole Chudiyan in Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. Manish Malhotra, who designed Kareena’s costume, took inspiration from the ensemble and custom-designed a peach-coloured lehenga set for Shloka. It comes with a cropped blouse featuring a jewelled one-shoulder neckline, a backless design, Resham and sequin embroidery, and butterfly-adorned tassels on the hem.
Shloka wore the blouse with a matching lehenga skirt featuring an A-line silhouette, floral Resham embroidery, peach sequin embellishments, and a floor-sweeping length. She completed the ensemble with a matching embroidered dupatta decked in tassels and Resham work.
For the accessories, Shloka wore luxurious jewels, including a diamond necklace, dangling earrings, kadhas, bracelets, and statement rings. Lastly, she chose black eyeliner, kohl-lined eyes, mascara on the lashes, berry-toned lips, rouge on the cheeks, and a ponytail for the glam picks.
