Alia Bhatt

During the promotions of her film ‘Kalank’, the diva was seen in some phenomenal ethnic looks. Making heads turn in flared anarkalis and stylish shararas, what stood out was her iconic accessories. She was seen in heavy chandbalis and jhumkas, but what was unmissable was her flower-shaped emerald green maang tikka from one of her looks. This is a definite piece for your wedding functions, which is highly versatile, subtle, and simply stunning.

Karisma Kapoor

We all would love to know the secret behind Karisma Kapoor’s evergreen beauty. Reigning in the industry for three decades, she is now a popular fashionista and is known for her iconic fusion ethnic collection. Her Instagram is surely an inspiration for all the girls. Karisma was once spotted in a stunning red drape, with which she wore a moon-shaped kundan maang tikka. The chandbali-style detailing was a contrasting pick with her lehenga set but looked absolutely alluring in the moment.

Perfect for cocktail parties to sangeet nights, you can skip all other jewels and shine in this single statement-worthy piece.

Creating a massive fan following with her acting and looks in Bollywood, Kriti Sanon’s wardrobe is known for its structured detailing. She always follows the trends, adding something personal of hers which instantly elevates the whole look.

Janhvi Kapoor

If we’re talking about fashion, it's impossible not to include Janhvi Kapoor in the list. Following the steps of her cousin sisters, Sonam and Rhea Kapoor, in fashion, she stole the show at Sonam’s wedding, dressed in a pink and blue Manish Malhotra lehenga. Completing her look with a statement kundan choker and matching earrings, she adorned a diamond maang tikka, which came with three dangling pearls and looked extremely elegant.
