Kim Kardashian and her sister Khloé's stylist, Dani Levi, revealed that their traditional Indian outfits for the grand wedding of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant were inspired by Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Taking to Instagram, Levi described Rai as "one of the most elegant, exotic, iconic women in the world." She also shared a video discussing how the actor's looks from her movies like Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam and Jodha Akbar influenced the Kardashians's glamorous outfits.
Manish Malhotra designed Kardashian sisters' wedding attire
Levi chose Manish Malhotra, whom she referred to as "the God of Bollywood," to design the Kardashian sisters' sarees and lehengas for the wedding. Interestingly, Malhotra has previously worked on Rai Bachchan's films. The outfits were designed to have "feminine, Hollywood, modern feels" while respecting Indian culture. Kim wore a lehenga and a saree designed by Malhotra, a blush pink lehenga by Tarun Tahiliani, and a bralette skirt look by Gaurav Gupta for the wedding events.

Following the wedding, Kim's selfie with Rai Bachchan took social media by storm, where she called the actor "queen." In another striking photo, Kim was seen gazing at the Bollywood actor with evident admiration, seemingly unable to take her eyes off the actor's beauty. Rai Bachchan dazzled in a colorful churidar, while her daughter Aaradhya Bachchan wore a charming pink sharara.
