Known for her unique sartorial sense, Indian film actress and Lok Sabha member Kangana Ranaut is once again turning heads with her impeccable ethnic style , this time in a stunning Rani Bandhej Anarkali , complemented by a handcrafted Shrinathji Potli from designer Jigya Patel’s couture label, Jigya M. The brand, born from the heart of Gujarat’s rich cultural fabric, is known for fusing traditional craftsmanship with modern elegance, an aesthetic that Kangana embraced wholeheartedly. The Anarkali featured the striking Bandhej tie-dye technique, a traditional Rajasthani art form that’s often seen in vibrant colours and intricate patterns.
The deep rani (royal pink) hue added a regal touch, with the flowy silhouette enhancing the garment’s ethereal appeal. Kangana, known for her bold and unapologetically Indian style, effortlessly carried the outfit, proving that true elegance comes from staying rooted in heritage while embracing contemporary flair. What truly elevated this look was the delicate Shrinathji Potli, a handcrafted masterpiece by Jigya Patel.
The potli, which traditionally serves as a pouch for carrying essentials, featured beautifully embroidered and exuded the artistic spirit of Nathdwara, the sacred town in Rajasthan. The Shrinathji motif connects deeply with the spiritual, given Kangana's strong devotion to Lord Krishna. The intricate potli bag added a layer of cultural depth to the ensemble, capturing both the traditional and devotional aspects of Kanga.
