Renowned Bollywood actress Sonam Kapoor was seen breaking down in tears while walking the ramp at a fashion event in Gurugram, paying tribute to the late fashion designer Rohit Bal.
Dressed in a white-toned gown featuring intricate crusted detailing, Sonam paired her look with a beige bohemian coat embroidered with peacock and leaf designs. She accessorized with ear cuffs, an antique ring, and floral adornments in her braided hair, complementing her smokey eyes and bold red lips.
Addressing the audience, Sonam expressed her deep admiration for the late designer, saying, “I am so happy to be here for Gudda. I have been privileged to wear his clothes many times and to have him design clothes for me also many times. It feels wonderful to do probably his last show.”
She further added, “The celebration of heritage, the celebration of craftsmanship… the idea is to celebrate everything beautiful and joyful. That was him. And I think in the same way, I love wearing clothes exactly like that.”
However, her emotional moment sparked mixed reactions online, with some critics labeling her as an “attention seeker” rather than appreciating her tribute. One social media user wrote, “By her fake crying she just ruined a perfect dress and a fashion show – which was sort of an tribute to Rohit Bal.” Another wrote, “Nautanki at its peak.”
