Feeling like a royal queen in this mesmerizing orange gown and gold embroidered shawl!

Animal actor Rashmika Mandanna effortlessly carries traditional outfits, particularly saris, with a special flair, whether it’s a Raw Mango lightweight drape or a Sawan Gandhi sequin gold lehenga. Embracing the festivities of the harvest festival, Makar Sankranti (known as Pongal in Tamil Nadu or Lohri in Punjab), the actor chose a traditional minimalist lehenga in a hue that symbolizes the rich soil of the earth.

Styled by Lakshmi Lehr and Gaurviv Desai, Rashmika Mandanna adorned herself in a terracotta cotton-silk lehenga from Devnaagri. The lehenga features gold dori work throughout the fabric, adorned with floral motifs in contrast to the deep hue. A lavish gold-thread lace border runs along the lightweight semi-sheer dupatta, adding a touch of glamour to the ensemble. Mandanna paired the look with a deep V-neck blouse and intricate jewelry, including a choker and XL jhumkas adorned with semi-precious stones

Given the lehenga’s relatively minimalistic design, the delicate jewelry with its intricate patterns complements the look without overpowering it. For her hairstyle, she opted for a middle-parted low bun, keeping her overall makeup simple. In a realm where Indian outfits are often associated with opulence, Rashmika Mandanna’s choice brings a refreshing and understated elegance to traditional attire.
