Alia Bhatt received her first National Film Award for Gangubai Kathiwadi. She split the award for Best Actress with Kriti Sanon, who won it for Mimi. Alia and her actor-husband Ranbir Kapoor flew to Delhi on October 17 to accept the prestigious award.
Several photos and videos of the actress were shared on social media. What drew netizens attention, though, was Alia’s saree. For the occasion, the actress wore her wedding saree. Ranbir, on the other hand, accompanied her in an all-black ensemble.
Alia looked stunning in an ivory Sabyasachi saree. She wore minimal makeup and styled her hair in a bun.
Alia previously revealed in an interview that she thinks the six yards to be the most comfortable clothing and hence made it her bridal wear.
