Purple is having a regal moment in Bollywood. The industry’s leading ladies have recently embraced purple traditional attire, creating a striking style wave that blends elegance, cultural richness, and bold fashion choices. From deep violets to lilacs and lavenders, the color is being reimagined in sarees, lehengas, and fusion wear.

Deepika Padukone’s Bold Maternity Saree Statement

Deepika Padukone turned heads recently in a bold, structured purple saree while embracing her pregnancy glow. The custom drape featured clean pleats and a tailored blouse, showcasing how maternity style can be high-fashion without compromising comfort.

With minimal jewelry and slick-back hair, her look spoke volumes about confidence and contemporary regal charm.

Kareena Kapoor Khan’s Traditional Vibe

Kareena Kapoor Khan opted for a richly embroidered purple lehenga with oxidized silver jewelry. The juxtaposition of royal purple with earthy accessories gave her look a grounded yet luxurious edge, perfect for festive gatherings or high-profile events.

Other Celebs Who Rocked the Purple Trend

Alia Bhatt chose a lavender chikankari kurta with delicate pearl drops for an understated, elegant touch.
Janhvi Kapoor wore a deep plum anarkali, featuring zari work and a high neckline—bridging classic and modern.
Kiara Advani shimmered in a mauve lehenga set with mirror work, styled with glossy waves and bold eye makeup.
Sara Ali Khan mixed boho with royal by wearing a hand-dyed purple skirt and jacket combo with tribal jewelry.
Ananya Panday gave a Gen-Z twist in a lilac saree paired with a crop blouse and sneakers for a college fest.
Sonam Kapoor delivered vintage drama in a velvet purple gharara and regal maang tikka—signature Sonam.
Radhika Apte played it cool in a modern sari-pant set with origami pleats, keeping it minimal yet impactful.

Why Purple Works

Symbolizing royalty, creativity, and individuality, purple has long been underused in traditional wear. But Bollywood’s recent wave proves it’s a fashion powerhouse—equally suited for weddings, festivals, and red carpet moments.

Stylists recommend experimenting with fabric textures like velvet, silk, chiffon, and brocade to bring out the depth of the shade. Pairing it with either silver or kundan jewelry elevates the drama while maintaining elegance.

Style Takeaway: Try the Purple Trend

Want to follow in Bollywood’s footsteps?

Go deep violet or plum for a classic, royal look
Try lavender or lilac for softer, modern occasions
Mix with silver, mirror, or pearl embellishments
Use contrast blouses in gold, ivory, or black for edge

Mumbai: TV actress Hina Khan, famed for Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, recently shared a deeply touching video on Instagram. In it, her husband Rocky Jaiswal gently oils and massages her feet—a sweet routine that showcases their unwavering bond

A message of love and care

The video, set to Zain Zohaib’s soothing track “Ranjheya Ve”, carries a powerful on-screen message:
“Phool dene waala nahi, phool ki tarah rakhne waala dhoondo…”
(Hina explained: “Don’t look for someone who just gives flowers; find the one who treasures you like a flower”)

Her emotional caption reflects gratitude and resilience:
Shayad upar waale ne jism ki takleef di, par rooh ka sukoon bhi to diya… His everyday routine. We will heal, yes we will. Mukkamal Shifa InshaAllah. Only Gratitude. Alhamdullilah @rockyj1 YOU

Standing by each other during tough times

Hina is currently battling stage 3 breast cancer—a journey Rocky has supported her through with daily care and emotional strength

Fans praise their bond

Social media users and fellow celebrities have warmly responded:

Rubina Dilaik: “You deserve all the love”
From Navbharat Times: “बड़े पुण्य किए होंगे तभी ऐसा पति मिला” (“He must have done great deeds to find such a husband”)
Other fans: “नजर ना लगे,” “Men in love,” and “You are very lucky”

A decade-long love story culminates

The couple’s romance blossomed over a decade ago on the set of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai. This June, they exchanged vows in an intimate ceremony on June 4, 2025

Why this moment resonates

Love in simplicity: The foot massage symbolizes consistent care rather than dramatic gestures—highlighting love that’s simple yet profound.
