Wedding receptions often call for ornate lehengas and glittering sarees, but Sonali Bendre offered a refreshing alternative when she attended filmmaker Sooraj Barjatya’s daughter’s reception. The actor stepped out in a vibrant kurta set by designer duo Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla – an ensemble that blended traditional craft with an easy, contemporary spirit.
Rather than opting for predictable evening glamour, Sonali Bendre embraced colour, texture and fluidity. The result was a look that felt festive yet effortless – perfectly suited for celebrations that stretch from afternoon ceremonies into evening soirées.At the centre of Sonali’s ensemble was a striking pheran-style kurta constructed in silk. The kurta featured patchwork kali construction enhanced with multicoloured resham embroidery and delicate mirror work. Despite the intricacy of the craftsmanship, the silhouette retained a relaxed structure, allowing the piece to move gracefully.
