Genelia Deshmukh's exquisite Nauvari saree
For the special event, Genelia draped a custom soft pink Nauvari saree by Ryree, blending elegance with deep cultural significance. The saree featured intricate Himroo weaving, a textile once associated with royalty, and was crafted using Ahimsa silk.

Subtle embroidery inspired by Maratha architectural motifs added depth and storytelling to the look, while the gentle pink hue brought a refreshing softness to the otherwise powerful silhouette.
She paired the saree with a matching blouse and draped a Himroo shawl, creating a layered, regal aesthetic that felt both rooted and refined.
Her accessories perfectly complemented the look. A traditional choker necklace, matching jhumkas, classic nath, stacked bangles, statement rings, and delicate payal added a traditional finish without overpowering the outfit.

A signature chandrakor bindi and a neatly styled middle-parted bun tied everything together, keeping the focus on her cultural ensemble.
'A little piece of my roots'
Sharing glimpses of her look, Genelia reflected on the emotional connect behind her outfit. She wrote, "Wore something that felt close to me - A Nauvari saree. A little piece of my roots, something I carry with me wherever I go. The Himroo weave and Ahimsa silk fabric make it so mindful and so so special. And this soft pink… just reminds me that strength can be gentle, and grace can be so powerful."
