Sanchita Chatterjee, BS News Agency: Sara Tendulkar has never really been a corset girl. But if her latest Vogue India cover shoot is anything to go by, she may have just found her newest fashion obsession.
While the look gave us
plenty to bookmark, it was her candid chat about marriage, friendships and the
kind of partner she hopes to find that made the feature even more memorable.
And yes, good banter is right at the top of her Wishlist.
The corset sari
that changed everything
Sara's standout fashion moment (external link) arrived
in a pastel green Banarasi handloom sari by
Tilfi, paired with an off-white satin silk and organza corset blouse.
The structured
silhouette modernised the traditional drape without taking away its elegance.
Diamond jewellery by
Golubhai Badalia completed the look.
She might not be a
pastel bride after all
Speaking about
weddings in her interview with Vogue magazine, Sara revealed
that while she once imagined herself as a pastel bride, she's now leaning
towards a smaller celebration and isn't ruling out a classic red bridal look.
Then again, being a
Libra, she joked she could just as easily change her mind and wear green.
Forget grand gestures.
Sara says the quality she admires most is the friendship her parents share.
Watching Anjali and
Sachin Tendulkar's easy conversations has convinced her that she'd want the
same kind of playful banter and equality in her own relationship.
'My parents are very
good friends before anything else,' she shared with Vogue.
She's happy to walk
away if it doesn't feel right
Sara also spoke about
how her generation approaches commitment differently.
Rather than going
through with a wedding for appearances, she believes it's better to walk away
before marriage if the relationship no longer feels right.
It's a refreshingly
practical take on modern love.
Friendship still
comes before romance
Perhaps the sweetest
revelation? Sara believes her closest friends are every bit as much her
soulmates as any future romantic partner.
Having known them
since childhood, she says those friendships remain some of the strongest
relationships in her life.
