11 Lies Bollywood Told Us About Wearing Sarees!

The nine yards of cloth is absolutely our favourite. There is no doubt that a saree can make you look beautiful, glamorous, chic, sexy – in short, it is an all-in-one deal. Bollywood has been our inspiration for saree draping and our favourite heroines have been our role models. Although, our Bollywood beauties have told us various lies about wearing sarees! So here is a list we made of some such lies!

1. Cold? What’s that?

This is the biggest lie ever. According to Bollywood, no matter how cold it is, the heroine feels just fine in a tiny saree blouse. Well, keeping this in mind, we have also worn sarees for various outdoor functions in winters… And have frozen to death!!

2. Bra cum blouse = Two in one!

Remember the gorgeous Deepika Padukone from the song Batameez Dil in Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani? We cannot get over her beautiful blue saree and the oh-so-sexy blouse with it. Her bralette-blouse become a trend and all of us ran to our tailors to get one stitched for ourselves too but sadly our tailors are no match for Bollywood ones!

Kajol in the song Suraj Hua Madham and Katrina Kaif in the song Teri Ore were so comfortable not only wearing or walking in a saree but even managed to run in their sarees. And here, we are struggling and practicing how to even walk in a straight line.

No matter how strong the wind is, it would only make you hair and your saree fly beautifully. We so wish this was true because for us, the flying saree pallu only makes us look silly!

5. Underwater saree?

Not only are our Bollywood divas comfortable wearing a saree on land, they are even comfortable wearing one underwater. Yes, we all have seen Kareena Kapoor in a saree underwater in the song Roshni Se from Ashoka. Pre-wedding photoshoot inspiration, girls?
