Kuch kuch hota hai, Rahul, tum nahi samjhoge…
My thoughts exactly on the #20YearsOfKuchKuchHotaHai party that took place in Mumbai last night. Even with all the Bollywood celebrities at the big do, I was more starstruck by the H2T black looks and that, Rahul would never get. Silly Rahul, amirite? If only he could witness the all-black sartorial extravaganza the stars brought with them, last night. sigh.
Let me fill you in on why I’m so excited. One, it’s been a while since we saw Bollywood celebs making a statement in black. Two, now that we’ve hit autumn, it’s okay to wear black all day every day. Last night was inspo-city for birthdays, Halloween, Christmas, New Years’ and everything in between.
Now that you see where I’m coming from, here are all the celebrities who brought sexy back last night – in black:
Kareena Kapoor Khan

Kareena Kapoor went short in a black Balmain outfit with metallic golden buttons on the skirt and cuffs. And even though those shoes aren’t all black, I’m eyeing them Brian Atwood beauties. Do you blame me?
Shahrukh Khan

Shahrukh Khan aka King Khan, aka Rahul from K2H2, pulled out all stops and knocked ’em dead in an H2T black look, which consisted of a three-piece suit and a pair of shiny black lace-up loafers. Oh, and also that ever charming smile of his. *swoon*
Rani Mukerji

Unlike Tina’s colourful, sexy wardrobe from Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Rani Mukerji went with a sophisticated black pantsuit that included a blazer with lace sleeves. Rani also matched her all-black outfit with glossy patent pumps.
Kajol

Kajol threw a doozy our way… is she wearing black or isn’t she? The truth – our beloved ‘Anjali’ wore a black sequinned sheer dress over a blue slip. Great trick, Kajol.
Karan Johar

The host of the party and the man behind K2H2 chose a crushed velvet party jacket with glittery black slogan pants. The Bollywood biggie wore his favourite retro frames, as always.
Alia Bhatt

Now, Alia might be in NYC with her boo Ranbir but she wouldn’t miss KJo’s party for the world! The actress put on a Silvia Tcherassi floor-length dress with a centre slit, waist cut-outs, and a big bold bow – to send a congratulatory video message. True friendship, innit?
Tara Sutaria

The Student Of The Year 2 starlet brought her A-game, didn’t she? I love this ’80s reminiscent poofy strapless gown. Not to mention the ruffled slit and a sparkly diamond choker. Phew!
Sidharth Malhotra

If it’s a KJo party, there’s no way Sidharth would miss it. Mr Malhotra took the casual route and did all-black in athleisure – a polo tee, black joggers, and statement sneakers, with a black party jacket layered over it all.
Sana Saeed

Anjali no. 2 from Kuch Kuch Hota Hai aka Sana Saeed was there too! The Student Of The Year actress turned up in a black naked dress and matching t-strap heels. Bold, eh?
Worthy outfits for one of the most iconic movies of all time, no? If you’re hoping KJo makes a gen Z version of Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, THIS is how it would be.
