Apart from the groovy tune and peppy dance moves of the famous “Nagada Nagada” song, one more thing that took the country by storm was Kareena’s, a.k.a. Geet’s iconic Patiala suit. The heavily embellished, well-fitted kameez, complemented with a flounced Salwar was enough to steal the show and become a favourite for every woman. But that’s not the only time we have witnessed the gorgeous Patiala suits rocking the Indian screens.

There are several other movies where we have seen the leading ladies dolled up in beautiful Punjabi suits. After all, the essence of Punjabi tradition is effortlessly reflected in its cultural attire and these suits are an embodiment of the tradition and zeal of the state. Now let us delve into the adoration Bollywood holds for Punjabi ethnic attire.

Bollywood’s Love Affair With Patiala Suits

Without further ado, let’s relive some of the iconic Patiala ensembles that we have watched in Bollywood movies and loved over the years.

Anushka Sharma’s Patiala Looks

One of the leading Bollywood ladies who have styled Punjabi suits the most on screen has got to be Anushka Sharma. Even though she wore several Patiala outfits in her debut “Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi”, one of the most memorable Patiala suits to date remains the iconic blue and red Patiala Salwar Kameez that she wore in the “Ainvayi Ainvayi” song from the movie “Band Baaja Baaraat”. A shimmering blue fitted silk kurti, completed with the lovely Patiala Salwar is celebrated even today. To find silk Patiala suits in mesmerising colours and designs visit Libas, one of the leading ethnic fashion brands in India.

Rani Mukerjee’s Patiala Looks

Who doesn’t remember the Rani Mukerjee and Abhishek Bachchan starrer romcom “Bunty aur Babli”? Aside from the phenomenal acting skills of Rani in this movie, one thing stood out; and that was her outfit. Her classic Patiala suits became an instant hit at that time. The short, vibrant kurti with a flared, striped patiala Salwar was quite popular among fashionista’s and college-going girls at that time and even today. Another movie, “Dil Bole Hadippa”, set with Punjab as the backdrop shows Rani in beautifully embroidered Patiala suits. If Rani’s Patiala looks have resonated with you, check out Libas’ suit collection and build an ensemble for yourself.

Kareena Kapoor’s Patiala Looks

When it comes to styling Patiala suits, Kareena Kapoor is hands down the trendsetter because the number of times she has dolled up in a Patiala is simply uncountable, each time better than the previous. In the beginning of this blog, we talked about Jab We Met, but that’s not the only feather in her cap. She has styled Punjabi suits in movies like “Bodyguard,” “Gori Tere Pyaar Mein,” “Satyagraha,” and “Udta Punjab”. From heavily embellished suits to subtle and simple Patiala ensembles, she is clearly a winner.
