Manish Malhotra and style can never be separated from each other! The king of couture changed the way Bollywood looked at fashion. It was in the year 1990 when he entered the glam space and created waves with his art. However, it was Urmila Matondkar’s Rangeela (1995) that turned out to be a game-changer for him, as his stylish outfits in the film became a hot topic of discussion. After this, there was no looking back, wherein he dressed some of the biggest stars in the industry. Be it Sridevi, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, Priyanka Chopra to Alia Bhatt, MM has been responsible for several iconic looks on screen.

Manish also weaved magic in Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge. Kajol’s green lehenga-choli combo with dupatta which she wore in the song ‘Mehendi Laga Ke’ is still popular. Many girls till date get a replica made of the same outfit. Not just this, we can say, Kajol’s entire wardrobe for DDLJ was fab.
