Designer ke paise barbaad.” Another wrote, “She can’t walk. I don’t know why she participated in the ramp walk.” A netizen remarked, “She stumbled…such a waste of designer’s effort. Even school fashion shows are better than this.”
Regarding the design elements of Aprita Mehta’s yellow ensemble Shanaya wore, it comes with a tube blouse and a pre-draped saree. The saree has a floor-sweeping pleated pallu, a mermaid-style silhouette, and shimmering sequin embellishments. She wore it with a matching tube blouse featuring a plunging neckline, cropped midriff-baring hem, sequin work, and a fitted bust.
Lastly, centre-parted open wavy locks, winged eyeliner, subtle eye shadow, glossy nude lip shade, dewy base, rouged cheekbones, feathered brows, contoured face, and no accessories rounded off Shanaya’s ramp look.
