We totally loved her in that layered white outerwear paired with ripped denim. Her choice of bold lip colors beautifully complemented her look.
Alia Bhatt : Dear Zindagi
Alia’s fashion in Dear Zindagi is funky, trendy, boho, chic and most importantly comfortable. Alia mostly choose casual looks in this film and kept her accessories minimal.

Formal attire clubbed with a pair of sneakers while going to work or relaxing in a mint green bikini on the beach— that’s Shyra aka Vaani Kapoor from Befikre. Vaani flaunted her washboard abs in the film and she looked smoking hot! Her looks have a French element as she plays a French-born Indian girl. Her high-waisted trousers with tank tops are very French, while her casual denim pinafore with black bralette is uber cool. Denim shorts and simple t-shirts with minimal accessories became the perfect look for many.
