Sashaying through snow-clad mountains in delicate chiffon saris, Alia Bhatt's dreamy wardrobe of seven yards in Karan Johar's Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani is a treat for sore eyes.
From kantha and batik to sequins and lace, the 30-year-old star has donned all kinds of saris in the film but the ombre design has our heart.
Ombre, which is French for 'a pattern in which colours or tones fade into one another' as per dictionary.com, enjoys a cherished place among Bollywood's beloved fashionistas.
