Kajol’s DIY Thread Art Shines During Met Gala Celebrity Storm
1 min readWhile Met Gala dominates headlines with its star-studded extravagance, Kajol offers a refreshing counterpoint: pure, hands-on creativity. The versatile actress took to Instagram with a photo of her thread sculpture, a testament to personal artistry in an era of high-end design.
The caption read, ‘Met Gala time calls for this – art from my own hands. All about those artisan skills, yeah?’ By tagging Karan Johar and Manish Malhotra, she linked her creation to their recent red carpet triumph.
Karan’s Met Gala entry was nothing short of revolutionary. His Manish Malhotra-designed ‘Framed in Eternity’ look channeled Raja Ravi Varma’s masterpieces through a structured jacket and a massive hand-painted cape. Over 80 artisans poured 85 days of labor into it, turning Indian heritage into a global conversation piece.
Kajol’s gesture celebrates the unsung heroes of fashion, bridging her DIY ethos with the event’s opulence. It’s a savvy social media move that resonates deeply.
Kajol’s latest screen outing, ‘Sarzameen,’ delivers powerhouse drama. Set in Kashmir, it follows an army officer, his devoted wife (Kajol), and their son seduced by terrorism. Kayoz Irani’s direction, backed by Dharma Productions, features Prithviraj Sukumaran and Ibrahim Ali Khan. Stream it on Jio Hotstar for a raw look at loyalty, loss, and redemption.
