PIX: Taking fashion lessons from Kalki

Kalki Koechlin first captured our imagination with her subtle portrayal of the new age Chandramukhi in Anurag Kashyap's Dev D in 2009.

It's been a whirlwind of three years and while the actress may not have signed films by the dozen, she sure is in demand and spotted around town quite often. Thanks to her latest film Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, we've seen Kalki put up fashionable appearances for promotions too.

We take a look at her style file through the years.

Kickstarting the road trip for ZNMD

The actress joined director Zoya Akhtar and the rest of the cast to kickstart a road trip across India. She wore a floral top and teamed it with white cotton pants.

She also co-ordinated her eye-popping bag with her flats.

Kalki continues her good run with a cute striped dress and a boyfriend blazer for another ZNMD event. You have to give it to her for carrying off that striped mash up!

In May, Kalki became a radiant bride in this gorgeous Laila Motwane lehenga that she wore to her wedding reception when she married Anurag Kashyap.

But gotta say, she wore her infectious smile way better.

Kalki showed that she had a serious side too with her Grazia cover in March. She wore a Dolce&Gabbana maxi dress and Bluemarine accessories.

Truly boho-chic.

She went for a bit too much drama with this dress as she attended the Star Screen Awards in January.

The dress was a bit too overwhelming on her.

Sari appeal

Kalki chose a Preeti Kapoor Sari for the premiere of That Girl In Yellow Boots at Toronto International Film Festival last year. The border on the sari and Kalki's blouse were really adorable.

Brownie points to the actress for going desi at an international event with such an understated charm.

Kalki attended the That Girl In Yellow Boots photocall during the 67th Venice Film Festival at the Palazzo del Casino last September, in Venice. The actress wore a cool strapless number.

Bet she's just as much at ease at international events as she is back home.

Kalki attended the premiere of Dev D at the Sala Grande during the 66th Venice Film Festival in 2009.

Going by the silhoutte and the embellishments on the gown, we can tell that Kalki was new in the industry.

Schoolgirl look

Kalki strongly resembled her character in Dev D while she promoted the film back in 2009. The hair, the top, everything about her spelt innocence.

This was one of the earliest outings of Kalki as an actress. She accompanied her Dev D costars to promote the film in this unassuming attire.

How cute is that!
