Aishwarya’s black suit set features a kurta decked with gold embroidery, shimmering gota patti work, and diamantes embellished in intricate patterns. It comes with a round neckline, quarter-length sleeves, side slits, a long hem length and a fitted silhouette accentuating the star’s frame.
Aishwarya teamed the kurta with matching pants and a brocade silk dupatta adorned with intricate embroidery, sequinned embellishments and intricate kadhai. The star elevated her traditional avatar with an emerald green layered necklace, matching bracelets, earrings and rings.
In the end, Aishwarya chose centre-parted open tresses, a dainty black bindi, berry-toned lip shade, black winged eyeliner, subtle smoky eye shadow, blushed cheeks, on-fleek brows, sharp contouring and beaming highlighter for the glam picks.
Meanwhile, Mani Ratnam’s film is based on writer Kalki Krishnamurthy’s iconic five-volume novel Ponniyin Selvan. The first part will release on September 30 and marks Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s return to the big screen after over four years. The music of the film is composed by Oscar-winning music director AR Rahman.
