Chetak Screen Awards 2026: Alia Bhatt wows in a flowy white saree and a power-packed pantsuit

Putting on her best fashion foot forward, Alia dazzled the audience with two custom Gaurav Gupta Couture looks — a sharply tailored three piece tuxedo for her host avatar and a dreamy, flowing, silk satin saree for the red carpet.

“With Alia, there is always a sense of balance. These two looks were designed to reflect different expressions of strength, one rooted in softness and heritage, the other in structure and modernity,” Gaurav Gupta notes.

Bhatt’s ivory drape felt super effortless saree, bringing in the spring energy, adorned with delicate, hand-finished
beadwork of mogra tassels and pearls, running through it. The ensemble was a perfect celebration of femininity, ephemerality, and quiet strength,

Her heavily beaded blouse, with floral detailing, added just the right amount of drama without taking away from the softness of the look.

And of course, she didn’t hold back on the diamonds,! Bhatt accessorised with a layered choker and a couple of rings, keeping things sparkly yet balanced.

Soft waves, glowy makeup, and that barely-there glam tied everything together—making the whole look feel fresh, romantic, and very easy on the eyes.

For her host look, Alia came in a power packed look, styled by Priyanka Kapadia. Her structured blazer, exaggerated shoulders, a cinched peplum waist, sleek waistcoat, and perfectly cut flared  trousers were anchored by a crisp white shirt and a skinny black tie. It was pure boss energy, with just the right hint of old-school charm meeting a modern edge.

For accessories, the Gangubai Kathiawadi actress went all in on diamonds—a striking hexagon detail on the tie lapel, paired with rings and slightly dangling, delicate earrings—that perfectly complement the outfit, adding sparkle without overpowering its sharp vibe. A subtle rose gold band added that final, polished touch, complementing her other two sparkly, diamond rings.

Her makeup seemed fresh and minimal—glowy skin, softly defined eyes, and a natural lip—while her hair fell in easy, bouncy waves that frame her face without feeling overdone.

And Bhatt was clearly having fun with it! From playful, high-energy anchoring to sharp comic timing and confident hosting moments, Alia brings a dynamic presence to the stage that mirrors her look—equal parts powerful and playful.

She was joined by Sunil Grover, whose vibrant red printed kurta adds a pop of contrast to the stage. The duo’s chemistry is evident as they riff through nominations with hilarious anecdotes and effortless banter.
