Saif and Kareena sizzle on the ramp for Manish

King of couture Manish Malhotra did not throw in any surprises at his showing on Day Three of HDIL India Couture Week, but had his audiences spellbound nevertheless.

A bridal line, like the collection showcased at Lakme Fashion Week last month, the theme this time around was slightly different. Called A Destination Wedding, it took up on the latest trend of getting hitched at exotic locales like the Mediterranean islands of Mykonos and St Tropez.

The audience was packed to the rafters with celebs. There was Priyanka Chopra, Uday Chopra, Dino Morea cosying up to Nandita Mahtani and Jugal Hansraj, among others. And Malhotra got Bollywood's hottest couple to walk the ramp for him, but let's save the best for last!

Yes, there were clothes too -- lehengas, off-shoulder kurtas, jackets and cholis for the ladies, sherwanis and jodhpuri pants for the men.

Back to you


Shocking yet elegant, the backless choli makes a style statement like no other.

Sari soiree


Yet again, a typically Manish Mahotra sari and yes, we were cheering.

White washed

Desi girl on the ramp


The original desi girl was watching the show from the first row and we wonder what she had to say!

Black is back


Well-cut jacket over a pair of velvet trousers is not something you want to wear to a wedding. But then again, what the heck!

Stripe down


Jacket -- two thumbs up. Striped pants -- no way.

The star couple


And finally, fever pitch -- walking hand-in-hand, Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor sure made a picture-perfect couple.
