Sobhita Dhulipala masters a rare fluency in ethnic fabulosity

Sobhita Dhulipala masters a rare fluency in ethnic fabulosity

She is a delight to reckon with – not just on-screen but off-screen as well. Sobhita Dhulipala made a mark as the quick-witted and courteous Vaanathi, the princess of Kodumbalur and Arulmozhi’s fiancee in Ponniyin Selvan: I released last year. Reprising her role in Ponniyin Selvan: II, Sobhita stirred up a sartorial storm on the promotional front with stylist Eka Lakhani. Her one-of-a-kind fashion arsenal is already a hoot. She went on to update it with minimal but well-etched ethnic and contemporary moments. She goes on to prove her stance as a sought-after designer’s muse. What’s more? She complements all her styles with a stunning, minimal but befitting glam game.

Sobhita isn’t a trend hound but relies on her innate sensibilities of being relevant and blending comfort with elegance and a rare charm. Adding on to these are those striking features of deep-set eyes, lustrous locks and a chiselled jawline. Ahead, we briefed up a fashion capsule of her style moments for Ponniyin Selvan: II promotions
