Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut made a bold fashion statement at the 62nd National Awards. Instead of the regular silk sarees most actresses don she opted for a light mauve body-hugging gown. The 28-year-old actress who bagged her second National Award for her poignant portrayal of a young girl left at the altar by her fiance in “Queen”, did not follow the usual trend of dressing up in traditional for the ceremony.
Kangana’s attire was designed by New York-based Indian designer Bibhu Mohapatra, whose collection is regularly seen on US first lady Michelle Obama.
“@kangana_ranaut in #Bibhu at #nationalfilmswards #delhi #bestactress…,” Bibhu tweeted.
The dress had a long cape and slit at the back. The actress completed the look with her hair tied up in a bun and a dark maroon lipstick. While Kangana took home the best actress National Award, South Indian star Vijay won the best actor trophy for his role in Kannada film “Nanu Avanalla Avalu”.
Interestingly when Kangana won her first National Award for ‘Fashion’ in the best supporting actress category, also went for an Indian dress, a black salwar kameez but this time she wanted to be different. . The actress will be next seen in ‘Tanu Weds Manu Returns’.
