Kangana Ranuat is a spectacle in this crushed-pink 'Fierce' inscribed sari but we can't wrap our heads around the matching ribbon - view HQ pics

Kangana Ranaut is the poster girl for everything unconventional in Bollywood. Be it her acting, or her journey of becoming the 'Queen', they all bear testimony to the same. Apart from that, it is really her fashion sense that gives her the extra mileage as a true-blue fashionista who knows what she is doing. Like that wasn't enough, she wears every piece of clothing with confidence and panache in a way that is exclusive to her. In fact, the actress who is awaiting her next release Manikarnika, often turns the airport into a fashion runway with her sartorial choices and we can't seem to have enough of it. (Also Read: 'Kangana Ranaut pulled off stunts smoother than Tom Cruise,' says Manikarnika action director Nick Powell)

However, not every pick becomes a lewk. Case in point, her recent spotting where she can be seen trying too hard. She was papped by the media wearing a custom-made sari by Madhurya Creations in collaboration with celebrity stylist Ami Patel. It is supposed to be one from the Power Sari collection and had cupcakes and words like 'Feminism' and 'Fierce' woven onto it. While one can still try to see through the power-dressing, we can't seem to wrap our heads around the matching pink ribbon. See and gauge for yourself!

Having said that, we have always loved how she flaunts saris at the airport unlike her contemporaries, placing them in comfortable travel-wear. We also dig the sunnies she wore along with puffed-sleeve blouse. Talking about Manikarnika, it is written by V Vijeyandra Prasad and is set to release on January 25, 2019. It will lock horns with Hrithik Roshan's Super 30.

(Also Read: Here's all you need to know about Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas' wedding schedule)

But here's the bummer. Just like Deepika Padukone, the actress doesn't want the paparazzi to hound her when she is about embark the most beautiful journey of her life. Which is exactly why, she has decided to ditch the conventional rituals and hop on a chopper to make an entry at the venue, reports Times of India. A source was quoted saying,"Only one helicopter has been booked for November 29 and December 3. Priyanka will be boarding the helicopter from Udaipur and the helicopter will directly land at Umaid Bhawan Palace on November 29. We are yet to receive the names of the people boarding the helicopter from Udaipur. Nick Jonas might join her as well. The same helicopter has also been booked to ferry guests from Jodhpur airport to Umaid Bhavan Palace."

Now, that's one way of doing it. The mehendi and sangeet ceremonies will be held on November 29 and 30 at the same venue. Reportedly Bollywood ace choreographer Ganesh Hegde will set the steps for the couple on songs which have featured Piggy Chops in films. Honestly, we can't hide our excitement to watch this beautiful couple in their bridal avatar. On the professional front, PeeCee will bee seen next in The Sky Is Pink which also stars Farhan Akhtar and Zaira Wasim in pivotal roles.

[INSIDE PICS & VIDEOS] Newlyweds Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone dance the night away at sister Ritika Bhavnani's bash

Enough with regal, here comes the quirk! And that's exactly what Ranveer Sigh and Deepika Padukone did and dressed for sister Ritika Bhavnani's party last night. Earlier this week, they looked divine for their Bengaluru reception that took place at The Leela Palace hotel earlier this week. While Ranveer opted for a fine black sherwani by Rohit Bal, DP kept it classy and elegance with her golden saree by mom Ujjala Padukone and exquisite Sabyasachi jewels. Not to mention, her big bright smile that she wore as an ornament. They looked every bit the quintessential couple. But last night was all about being unconventional. (Also Read: Ranveer Singh's sister Ritika Bhavnani has the most adorable desserts for her brother and bhabhi Deepika Padukone - view pics!)

And mistake you not, there was stage-breaking dance. All night. See more pictures of the newlyweds here.

Apart from the one in Bengaluru, there are two more reception parties that will happen in Mumbai. One is being organised at The Grand Hyatt on November 28 and the couple will also throw a big bash for Bollywood biggies and friends from the fraternity at a grand filmy reception on December 1.

Guess The Price! Mira Rajput Kapoor's pretty floral knuckle clutch's price tag is too heavy for your pocket

Seldom do we see any star wife giving tuff competition to Bollywood actresses in terms of fashion. However, Mira Rajput Kapoor has made us believe that when it comes to fashion, she can give any actress run for the money. As and when the lady steps out, Mira makes sure that she is decked up and let others take a note of her style file. But recently, when the mother of two, attended the Soho House Launch Party event in an autumn-friendly co-ordinated set, Mira left us disappointed with her choice of outfit. Though, her pretty floral clutch caught our attention. And when we browsed the web to shop it, well, the price tag of Mira's clutch left us open-mouthed.

Well, the floral long box clutch is by Alexandra McQueen and can you cost a whopping 1,498 USD, which is Rs 1,05,646 in Indian currency. Don't know about you, but we wouldn't consider purchasing a clutch worth a lakh.

Have a close look at Mira's floral clutch here...

Bigg Boss 12: Shivashish Mishra, Anup Jalota and Roshmi Banik have a mini reunion and relive BB memories - view pics

Chaos is the order in the Bigg Boss house. Even in it's 12th installment, the reality show is a full-on 'Masala factory' as host Salman Khan said it in last night's Weekend Ka Vaar episode. He also said a lot other things and gave fans a lot to hoot about. Be it schooling Deepak or reprimanding Megha, the Bollywood star didn't leave any stone unturned. He also questioned Deepika and KV for their apparent fall-out and why their friendship couldn't survive long. It was a valid question, to be he honest! (Also Read: Bigg Boss 12, Weekend Ka Vaar, Live Updates: Salman Khan confesses that he has failed as a host - find out how)

But that's the scenario inside the house, outside it is quite different! That's right and we say so cause Anup Jalota recently turned host to Roshni Banik and Shivashish Mishra and the three of them seemed to have had a mini reunion. While Shivashish's eviction happened last week, Roshmi was the first to get eliminated along with her partner Kriti Verma. And as we all know, Anup Jalota has been out (and in) for quite some time now. The trio catched up on a lot of things and one can say it was a night to remember. Roshmi even posted a few pictures from the night and wrote, "Thanks for the lovely dinner @jalotaanup , you are a super host. Enjoyed a lot like we used to in the BIGG BOSS house with @shivashish_official and @jalotaanup. ?"

In another post, she added, "Friends for life @shivashish_official. Dinner at @jalotaanup place. Delicious food, awesome people and BIGG BOSS memories relived. What more can I ask for?? A night to remember..."

Meanwhile, as we earlier reported Srishty Rode has been evicted of the house. Stay tuned to BL for updates and scoop!

Three cool ways to fold a pair of jeans

[PICS] Fashion apocalypse must be fast approaching for Madhuri Dixit and Malaika Arora are among the worst-dressed stars of the week

It is Sunday, which means it is yet another edition of worst dressed celebrities of the week. This week has been a star-studded affair courtesy the Lux Awards, Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh s wedding reception and more. While we loved most outfits donned by celebrities this week, there were a few outfits we thought that shouldn t have found a way out of the wardrobe in the first place. It breaks our hearts when we point out bad fashion choices but a girl s gotta do what she s gotta do!

This week, our hearts broke when the oh-so-fashionable Malaika Arora stepped out wearing a dress which was not up to the mark. Our Dhak Dhak girl aka Madhuri Dixit left cotton candy shy and oh boy, that blouse Janhvi Kapoor wore to IFFI! Girl, we need to talk...

Without further ado, here s a look at the some of the worst dressed celebrities of the week:

Malaika Arora

Worst-dress5

She s been gracing our best dressed list for a while now, but we couldn t help but feature her in the worst dressed list this week. The India s Got Talent host was seen wearing a grey floral printed dress one of the days this week. While there is no doubt Malaika can pull off even the riskiest outfit, this was not something she carried off well. The dress lacked shape and what was going on with that uneven flounce?

 

Madhuri Dixit

Worst-dress3

We need sunglasses to check this one out. Madhuri Dixit stepped out wearing an in-your-face pink gown and she reminded us cotton candy. The actress dress also did not fit her well. The waist band appeared to have found its way to the bust, making it a sore sight.

 

Preity Zinta

Worst-dress2

Oh dear god! Have we gone back to the early 2000s? No? Then why is Preity s stylist still stuck back in time? The gorgeous actress has flaunted some beautiful outfits in the past so imagine our surprise when she stepped out wearing this green ensemble recently. The outfit was not only dated, it did not fit her well, making it a bad fashion choice.

 

Janhvi Kapoor

Worst-dress1

Another heartbreaking entry on the list today is Janhvi Kapoor. The stunning Dhadak star, who has worn some breathtaking outfits in the past, wore a beautiful long skirt but paired with a not-so-pretty blouse. The frills all over the top drew attention away from the pretty skirt and not in a good way. A plain white blouse or a pastel-coloured top would have done the trick.

 

Jacqueline Fernandez

Worst-dress4

The beautiful actress seemed to be confused between a dress and a gown so she sported a short and long dress. No, we don t have a problem with the style of the dress. Our issue is with the design of it. The dress is all over the place. Random twirls around the bust, messy wrap around the waist and the half-off-shoulder look doesn t make the dress different, it just ruins it.

Which one of these outfits did you dislike the least and which one made you go, oh no ? Tweet to @bollywood_life and let us know your thoughts.

Awkward pictures of the week: Sunny Leone, Esha Gupta and other celebs who were caught on camera at the wrong time

And it is that time of the week again when we come up with a fresh batch of awkward pictures of our Bollywood celebrities. Yes, it is a task in itself to dig out the pictures of these celebs. Before selecting the best five pictures to put in the list, take our time sieving through lots and lots of pics, trying to find the funniest ones. We go for the ones that make us go, 'Oh, kuch toh gadbad hai' about this picture. And that's how we compile the list and present it to you guys. Nevertheless, the ones who have made it BL's this week of the awkward pictures list are - Alia Bhatt, Aamir Khan, Sunny Leone, Kim Sharma and Esha Gupta.

Alia Bhatt

Alia Bhatt

This is how one reacts when they find themselves atop a building in the middle of the night. We feel you, Alia!

Aamir Khan

aamir khan

Aamir Khan has packed his bags and is off to a city best known to him after the debacle of his last film, Thugs Of Hindostan. Okay, jokes apart, we really find it funny as to the manner in which he is holding the pillow.

Sunny Leone

MKD_3780

No, not Nisha or Ranvijay, it is Sunny Leone's expression that has us in splits. Why? It seems as if the actress is giving an audition for a toothpaste ad. Don't you think?

Kim Sharma

DSC_2311

That's Kim Sharma, who is reportedly dating Harshvardhan Rane. Yes, that's the guy right next to her picture. Kim's expression here seems to say, 'Steer clear, girls, he is mine!' Ok, point taken, Kimmy.

Esha Gupta

DSC_0322(3)-(1)

Unless you are recently engaged, why would you hold your hands so awkwardly, Esha? Is that ring telling a tale? Also once you see the man behind Esha, it will be difficult to unsee him. Try, we dare you.

Newlyweds Yuvika Chaudhary and Prince Narula tied the knot last month in a lavish wedding ceremony and melted our hearts into a pudding. But just when we thought they couldn't get more adorable, the couple, with their growing love for each other, has managed to win our hearts all over again. Little earlier, they celebrated their first Karva Chauth together and it was all things heart. The doting husband that he is, Prince ensured he did all he can to please wifey Yuvika. From participating in the preparations for the day, to ensuring she's eats healthy before commencing the fast, Prince was on his toes making memories with Yuvika. He even went on to apply mehndi on the hands of Yuvika. (Also Read: Prince Narula's wish for 'princess' Yuvika Chaudhary on their one month anniversary is all things love)

And it was a night of celebration again as it was Prince's birthday as he turned 28. And wife Yuvika spared no stone unturned to surprise her hubby for the first time after marriage. She threw a surprise bash for him and even got all his friends under the roof. Not just that, she even took to Instagram and posted a heart-felt message along with adorable pictures. She wrote, " Dear husband, Wonderful, amazing, unique, incomparable, handsome, strong, incredible. I could go on forever. Wishing you a blessed birthday. ... Happy birthday to the most kind-hearted and thoughtful husband alive. Loving you is always easy. Love u always @princenarula @rajnish5390 @akash10787." See the post here.

Cute, right? In an earlier interview with IANS, Prince was asked how love blossomed with Yuvika Chaudhary. He said, "I think we are one single couple that actually ended up getting married after Bigg Boss. A lot of people say relationships aren't made from a reality show, but relationships can be made anywhere I feel. If two people who are connected, their future is written by God."

Trending Tunes: Zero’s Mera Naam Tu might have caught everyone’s fancy, but music lovers are still hooked to Proper Patola

It has been a musical week for us. We were treated to the first song of Zero titled Mera Naam Tu. The Ajay-Atul produced song featuring Shah Rukh Khan and Anushka Sharma caught the attention of music lovers. We were also introduced to a song from Sara Ali Khan and Sushant Singh Rajput starrer Kedarnath titled Qaafirana a few days ago. However, it seems like music lovers are still hooked to the previous hit numbers of the year.

This week was no different from last week. The songs remained more or less the same. While we were still hooked to Proper Patola from Namaste England, we danced our way home (and in the clubs) to Kamariyaan.

So, without further ado, here s the list of songs that made into our Trending Tunes this week:

Proper Patola Namaste England:

Badshah s magic is still ruling the charts with Proper Patola from Namaste England. The song has been trending from the time it has released, adding another success feather on Badshah s hat.

Dilbar Satyamev Jayate:

We wouldn t be surprised if this song remains on the list on our musical chart even when we enter the New Year. The Nora Fatehi number has been one of the longest running song on the music charts this year.

Dekhte Dekhte Batti Gul Meter Chalu:

Atif Aslam keeps music lover s attention with this lovely track from Batti Gul Meter Chalu.

Chogada Loveyatri:

Christmas is almost upon us, but music lovers are still listening to Chogada from Loveyatri. The song is sung by Darshan Raval and Asees Kaur.

Morni Banke Badhaai Ho:

Ayushmann Khurrana and Sanya Malhotra starrer Morni Banke from Badhaai Ho is again on our list this week and we re not complaining. The movie left a huge mark at the box office and the songs are giving it the needed push in the music charts.
