Filmmaker Karan Johar hosted a lavish birthday party for his Dharma Productions CEO and close friend Apoorva Mehta who turned 50 recently. Ace set designer Amrita Mahal, who is known for set designing of several Dharma films including Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani and Brahmastra, designed the theme of the starry birthday bash and we must say, she did her job pretty well.
Needless to say, this bash witnessed the crème-de-la-crème f Bollywood dressed in their stylish best. From sheer gowns to dapper suits and fusion drapes, this soiree witnessed it all and so much more. Check out the sartorial highlights from this star-studded gala:
