Vidya Balan could well be the official saree ambassador and a certified chameleon of all things traditional and stunning. She shunned and strode past the stereotypical Bollywood diva body image. Additionally, she never misses an opportunity to assert her stark demeanor with aplomb and blends ethnicity with contemporary sensibilities. A powerhouse of talent, Vidya has carved a signature style that is innately sartorial and ups the vibe with statement jewelry, profound eye makeup and a bindi. This time around, Vidya attended a conference titled Finding Mothers at her alma mater St. Xavier's College. Vidya Balan's printed saree by the homegrown label, Chhapa in Chanderi silk is a perfect wardrobe addition. The saree that doubles up as a Durga Pujo saree in tones of ruby red, ivory and yellow is sustainable too!
