Winsome White
The sensuous yet subtle white saree epitomizes cheerful Chandni . This seemingly simple choice had a deep meaning! White embodies elegance, purity and glamour and also, it personifies the title Chandni by resonating it with the glittering gleam of moonlight.
I hope Kirti succeeded in her effort of reminding you about the Chandni era and specially the soulful title track, chandni o meri chandni!

Youthful Yellow
I hope you all remember iconic yellow sheer saree which Sridevi gracefully donned on super-romantic song- Tere mere hothon pe meethe meethe geet mitwa!
This plain yellow saree embodies simplicity and elegance in the most enchanting way. The golden yellow hue radiate warmth and positivity. Our lovely and gracious model imitated Sridevi in the closest possible way.
She complimented the saree with straight open hair and minimalistic pearl jewelery and ran across lush green meadows to make you fall in love with the legendary look .
I’m sure, now most of you would like to recreate this look and dance on tunes of this love song.
