These actors talked about the impact of fashion shown in cinema.
Bollywood Hungama Style Icons 2024: Gauahar Khan says that Maine Pyar Kiya, Hum Aapke Hai Koun, Dil To Pagal Hai impacted people’s fashion choices: “People request ‘Choli thodi neeche karna’, ‘woh dori laga dena’”
Gauahar Khan said, “I believe films, especially in India, are such an integral part of our lives, that you can’t really draw the line on what the impact is going to be in the personal lives of the audience. For example, when Maine Pyar Kiya (1989) was released, weren’t we all wearing a cap that said ‘Friend’? No matter how hideous it looked on our salwar kameez, we still wore it (laughs). Today, we’d be like ‘Oh my God’! But that was the influence the film had.”
Gauahar continued, “The low-cut blouse that Madhuri Dixit wore in Hum Aapke Hai Koun (1994) is a trend even today. People request ‘Choli thodi neeche karna’, ‘woh dori laga dena’. Showbiz has such an impact that you can’t really take your eyes away from it.”
Often, clothes shown in films lead to cheap imitations in the market. When asked if there’s a downside, she replied, “I don’t know if that’s the downside. The way I see it, there are people who cannot probably afford higher fashion or expensive fabric but they still desire to look like actors on screen. I am sure the fashion designers are not happy about it. They must be like ‘Oh my God, Sabyasachi or Manish Malhotra are getting copied’!”
She also remarked, “Today, we know the names of these designers. When Manish Malhotra started in films, no one knew who he was. Today, we know that those kurtas that Madhuri Dixit donned in Dil To Pagal Hai (1997) that we started wearing with those bra tops inside and everyone went crazier, it was possible because of a man named Manish Malhotra. Hence, designers have much to thank the audience for that they are today; where they are. So, whether it’s cheap or not, or whether it costs Rs. 150 or Rs. 1.50 lakhs, I think the showbiz and style will also rock together.”
Mugdha Godse, meanwhile, observed, “I feel that when the outfit is being sold on the road and the masses are buying it, then it’s a mark that the clothes are a super hit!”
Shriya Pilgaonkar exulted, “It might be controversial for me to say it but the artistry in some of the knockoffs are phenomenal! If I was a brand, I’d be like, ‘Wow, let us work together’. Hence, I would not like to look down upon people who try to make a certain popular design accessible for more people.”
