Celebs’ outfits always manage to gain the spotlight in the events in which they make a presence. However, the credit goes to the person behind the creation. Recently, many B-town women attended the Ram Temple Consecration in Ayodhya on January 22, but the Saree Alia Bhatt wore is being discussed heavily. The reason lies in the print of the attire and the craftsmanship it involves.
Insights Revealed by the Creators of the Pattachitra Saree
The creator of the saree has shared insights about the craftsmanship involved in making the pattachitra saree. The post emphasized the significance of the epic Ramayana being depicted in the attire worn by Alia during the auspicious occasion. Overall, Alia’s attire has sparked conversations not only for its stunning appearance but also for the artistic representation of the revered Hindu epic.
Amit Patel, the stylist, shared close-up photos and a video of Alia Bhatt’s custom turquoise blue Mysore silk saree. The saree, created by @madhurya_creations, featured intricate hand-painted scenes from the Ramayan on the Pallu. The scenes included significant moments like breaking the Shiva Dhanush, King Dasharatha’s promise, the boat with Guha, the golden deer, the kidnapping, the Ram Setu, Lord Hanuman presenting the ring to Ma Sita, and the Rama Pattabishek. These detailed miniature paintings were crafted in a traditional “Pattachitra” style, taking 100 hours to complete in time for the inauguration of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya.
Alia Bhatt attended the event alongside her husband Ranbir Kapoor. The Animal actor wore a traditional all-white outfit to match the occasion. He was dressed in a white kurta and pyjama, with a white shawl wrapped around him.
Fans have been buzzing about Alia’s teal blue Mysore silk saree, which the actress herself revealed took 100 hours of effort to create. In a mirror selfie shared on Instagram, Alia mentioned the saree’s intricate details, with scenes from the Ramayan being handpainted on the pallu.
The attire is getting much-needed attention as it depicts the story and the art of storytelling by its creators.
