Mumbai: Diva Priyanka Chopra Jonas, who always turns head with her fashion and presence, was seen wearing a stunning yellow saree-inspired Gaurav Gupta gown from their latest couture collection for the world premiere events for her upcoming movie The Bluff.

What is saree-inspired gown?

For the afterparty which was held at the TCL Chinese Theatre, the global actress wore a custom-made yellow couture piece from Gaurav Gupta's collection.

The actress chose a modern ethnic look from the designer's The Divine Androgyne Spring/Summer 2026 collection.

By keeping a drape over her head, she paid a tribute to her character Ercell Bodden. It is in reference to the opening scene of the movie, where Priyanka's character puts a dupatta over her head.

Expressing her love for saree, the global actress said, “I love a saree. And when I saw this piece walk down the couture runway last month, it felt like a saree with a modern twist. We immediately called Gaurav and asked him to hold it for me.”

Calling the piece “a quiet power”, the actress said that, “There’s a quiet power in its simplicity. The precision of the tailoring, the way it drapes and moves, felt both rooted and forward looking, and the bright yellow is so synonymous with the colorful palette of India. To me, this piece is a testament to the growing global scope of Indian fashion and how beautifully our heritage continues to evolve.”

Giving shoutout to the treasure chest bag , Priyanka said, “Ps: Don’t miss my treasure chest.”
