From Madhuri Dixit To Genelia D’Souza: Take Saree Inspiration From Bollywood Divas This Gudi Padwa

With Gudi Padwa, the Maharashtrian New Year, just around the corner, festive spirit and enthusiasm are at an all-time high. From multi-coloured rangolis and bright-hued gudhi’s to mouth-watering delicacies and vibrant ensembles, Gudi Padwa is the most exciting day of the year that marks prosperity, hope, and fresh beginnings.

This year, mark the festival by embracing bold hues, rich fabrics, and elegant jewellery and creating a stunning and festive ensemble. It’s time to gear up for celebrations in style and flaunt your inner diva this year by taking some ethnic wear inspiration from these celebrities. We have pulled together a list of saree looks that might help you put your glamour game at the top during your celebrations.

Madhuri Dixit Nene

Saree and Madhuri are such a beautiful combination. If talking about sarees and traditional Marathi Nauvari sarees, how can we forget Bollywood’s Dhak Dhak Girl? Channelling her inner Marathi mulgi, actor Madhuri Dixit Nene exhibited the perfect Kashtha style in this teal and orange Paithani saree. Add this beautiful colour combination to your wardrobe this year on Gudi Padwa and accessorise the look with Peshwai Nath and some gold jewellery. Tie your hair in a middle-parted bun, and you are good to go.

Genelia D’Souza

Genelia D’Souza is undoubtedly the epitome of elegance. Be it traditional six-yards of grace or western outfits, this beauty aces all looks. But in case you need inspiration for this Gudi Padwa to look chic and do not know how to wear a nauvari saree, fret not. Genelia D’Souza is there to bring your traditional best foot forward. Simply drape a saree and merge traditional Maharashtrian accessories like Peshawari Nath and gold jewellery. Enhance your look with a gajra-wrapped bun, and you are all set to fire up the festival.

Kajol

Take inspiration from Kajol in this red and blue coloured traditional saree that goes over the head as a veil. With oodles of gold jewellery and Peshawari Nath, she kept her makeup minimal, with soft, smokey eyes and thickened brows. The huge bindi and her hairdo into a sophisticated and exquisite high bun took her Desi avatar a few notches higher.

Shraddha Kapoor

Shraddha Kapoor belongs to a Maharashtrian family, and this Marathi Mulgi never fails to follow traditions. Keeping up with the tradition, the diva always dishes out a drop-dead gorgeous look for Gudi Padwa, and this look of Shraddha speaks volumes of elegance and tradition. Draped in a traditional yellow Nauvari saree with authentic Maharashtrian jewellery, she kept her tresses open in soft curls.

Rupali Ganguly

If you want the quintessential Marathi style, deck yourself up in a green nauvari saree with a red borderline, like actress Rupali Ganguly, to bring in the festival. Style it with traditional gold jewellery, especially the Peshawari Nath and hair jewellery. Tie your hair back in a bun and let your saree draping speak to the traditional fashion style of Gudi Padwa.
