Janhvi Kapoor’s fashion game has been consistently on point, but her latest look for Param Sundari promotions? That’s on another level. For this outing, she teamed up with ace stylist Ami Patel and designer Karan Torani to create a look that’s as much about storytelling as it is about style.
A Saree That’s Pure Art
This isn’t your everyday drape. The custom Torani saree is a delicate jaal — an intricate net-like pattern — adorned with handcrafted wax malligai (jasmine) blooms made by artist Amaahyaaj. In South Indian tradition, these fragrant white flowers are a staple in festive and bridal looks, usually worn in the hair. Here, they’ve been reimagined into an ethereal, wearable tapestry.
The soft ivory net is given a candy-pink scalloped border, while miniature floral motifs in white, pink, and crimson are scattered across, giving the saree a romantic, almost dreamlike quality. Beneath it all, a bold fuchsia silk underskirt peeks through, adding contrast and depth.
The Blouse — Structured Meets Softness
The blouse is a statement on its own — corset-style with beaded spaghetti straps and intricate embroidery that mirrors the saree’s floral details. It’s structured but feminine, perfectly balancing the softness of the netted drape.
The Finishing Touches
Janhvi kept the accessories minimal but impactful — pearl drop earrings set in a ruby-toned base that echoed the colours in her saree. Her makeup was fresh and luminous, with dewy skin, pink-toned eyeshadow, and a glossy mauve-pink lip. Hair was left in loose waves with a centre parting, keeping the focus on the saree’s stunning back drape.
More Than Just a Look
What makes this outfit stand out is its cultural depth. By integrating traditional wax malligai blooms into high-fashion couture, the look honours heritage while still feeling fresh and modern. It’s the kind of styling that not only turns heads but also tells a story — and Janhvi wears it with effortless ease.
The Film Connection
Janhvi’s Param Sundari, directed by Tushar Jalota and co-starring Sidharth Malhotra, is set to release on August 29, 2025. Backed by Maddock Films, the rom-com is already generating buzz, and with style moments like these during promotions, the anticipation is only getting higher.
Looks like Janhvi Kapoor has found the perfect balance between cinema’s glamour and couture’s artistry — and we’re here for every bit of it.
