Sunita Kapoor’s Karwa Chauth: Shilpa, Mira, Anshula’s looks

Bollywood’s Karwa Chauth calendar has a fixed address: Sunita Kapoor’s Juhu home. On Thursday, 29 October, the annual gathering once again drew a starry guest list, and the festive fashion was shared as fast as it was worn.

This year the evening carried an extra note for Anshula Kapoor, who observed her first Karwa Chauth after marrying Rohan Thakkar. She arrived in a bright pink and red ethnic set with heavy gold embroidery, a matching gharara and an embroidered potli. She later posted glimpses of the celebration and was photographed alongside Mira Rajput.

Colour stories from the guest list

Shilpa Shetty chose a pink saree with golden motifs and a contrasting red border, pairing it with a heavily embroidered green blouse, statement jewellery and a decorated puja thali. Mira Rajput went with champagne gold embroidery, traditional jewellery and an embellished potli bag. Maheep Kapoor arrived in deep red, Bhavana Pandey in yellow-orange, and Neelam Kothari in emerald green.

The pink-and-red energy continued through the room. Riddhima Kapoor Sahni and Geeta Basra wore pink, while Mini Mathur and Tahira Kashyap picked red sarees. Jaanvi Desai Dhawan chose a crimson ruffle saree, and Natasha Dalal kept her look understated in dusty pink satin with an embroidered top and wide-leg trousers.

What the looks had in common

• Embroidery as the anchor: Most outfits let one ornate piece, such as a blouse, border, gharara or potli, carry the decorative weight.
• The puja thali as part of the outfit: Several guests carried decorated thalis, making the ritual visible in every frame.
• Traditional jewellery stays central: Statement jewellery and a maang teeka finished the sarees and suits.

Why this gathering still matters

Sunita Kapoor has made the celebration an annual fixture, and the photographs turn it into a ready-made festive mood board. Mira Rajput’s glimpse of the food and puja table, a large silver platter of sweets and savouries with fruits and ritual essentials, underscored that the evening is a ritual first and a fashion moment second.

The gathering is also a reminder of how Bollywood’s festive calendar has shifted from closed-door tradition to shareable content. A single evening produced multiple Instagram Stories, mehendi close-ups and outfit details, giving followers a look at both the celebration and the styling choices behind it.

For fans planning a Karwa Chauth, Diwali or wedding-season look, the cues are clear: choose a confident colour, let one embroidered element lead, and keep the detail that tells the story visible in the frame.
