Alia Bhatt Preps for MET Gala in BTS Video, Unveils Moodboard for Her Look
Alia Bhatt was among the best dressed celebrities at the Met Gala on Monday. Here’s what went on behind the scenes hours before her red carpet appearance.
It really does take a village… not just to raise a kid, but also to get a Bollywood star ready for the MET Gala. Vogue magazine has shared a behind-the-scenes video of Alia Bhatt prepping for the MET Gala at her hotel room on Monday evening. It shows her getting her hair and makeup done, draping the saree and revealing all about the inspiration behind her look.
What’s in the video?
In the video, Alia talks about how well her makeup artiste Puneet B Saini knows her after working together for nine years. She said that once, her sister Shaheen Bhatt was upset when Puneet got the perfect birthday gift for Alia.
The actor wore a Sabyasachi saree that was styled by Anaita Shrofff Adajani. Anaita revealed that the saree incorporated all three elements that were the theme for this year’s gala: embroidered flowers for land and the blue colour of sky and water.
The team also showed the ethereal, old Hollywood, Parsi culture influences on the look. Alia showed an image of the vintage hair look she wanted for the night. Hairstylist Amit Thakur got her just what she wanted.
Sabyasachi Mukherjee, who designed Alia’s saree, spoke about Indian fashion and how it’s unique. Alia also recalled the first time she wore a saree for Teacher’s Day in Class 9. She said that by the time she reached school, her saree pleats came undone and she rushed to the bathroom to fix it.

In a series of Instagram posts, Alia shared glimpses of her Met Gala experience, including a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of her exquisite ensemble.
