Kareena Kapoor just made a very strong case for bringing pastels back into your festive wardrobe.
On September 11, Kareena shared a collage on her Instagram Stories showing her recent leheriya look alongside Karisma wearing a similar style in Zubeidaa.
She also added the song “Main Albeli” from the film to the Story. And honestly, that’s what makes the look so easy to take inspiration from this festive season. You don’t necessarily need heavy embroidery, layers of jewellery or an elaborate blouse to make a saree stand out. Her beauty look followed the same understated mood. She wore her hair loose in soft waves, while her makeup focused on glowing skin, softly defined eyes and a nude-pink lip.
Let’s decode her look and take some style notes.

And just like that, the sisters’ shared fashion history became part of the conversation. Fans were quick to notice the resemblance, while fashion commentary account Diet Sabya also shared a series of Bollywood stars who have worn leheriya over the years, including Rekha, Karisma, Kareena, Rani Mukerji, Alia Bhatt and Shilpa Shetty. The post also brought up an obvious point: leheriya isn’t some new Bollywood fashion discovery. Women in Rajasthan have been wearing the traditional textile for generations. For the Daayra music launch in Mumbai, Kareena opted for a vibrant lehariya-print saree in rainbow hues, offering plenty of fresh fashion inspiration for the festive season. The understated drape kept the focus on the delicate fabric and dreamy colour palette, creating a look that felt graceful without appearing overly styled.
