It is safe to say that if there is anybody who has completely owned the art of rocking a saree, it is Vidya Balan
Vidya Balan must surely have been thrilled when Tumhari Sulu
received the 'Best Film' award at IIFA this year. With seven nominations
for the film, we are sure that Vidya and her team were riding high; she
was herself nominated in the 'Best Actress' category for the movie.
Well deserved, of course - Tumhari Sulu was a fine mix of
emotions, humour and drama. But all of that is something we have come to
expect out of films that star Vidya Balan; remember The Dirty Picture, Kahaani? That she is a fine actress is not something to be questioned.
There is another fact that no one can refute - the fact that if there is one person in Bollywood who knows how to rock a saree, it is Vidya Balan. And not just any saree; for Vidya, her sarees seem
to be a way of self-expression. She is clearly biased towards Indian
handloom (as we should be), and there is a certain earthy, old world
charm to her everytime she wears one. In the time of printed sarees, modern drapes, and quirky designs, Vidya shows us that the charm of a classic saree made with Indian design techniques will never really get old.
