Janmashtami 2025: 5 Stylish Krishna-Radha Inspired Outfits To Try This Festive Season
Janmashtami outfit ideas 2025: Get inspired by Lord Krishna and Radha with 5 divine looks featuring peacock hues, floral fits, flowy fabrics, and golden accessories.
Janmashthami Outfit Ideas 2025: Janmashthami, celebrating the birth of Lord Krishna, is observed in many parts of India, including Mathura, Vrindavan, and Dwarka. This year, the auspicious festival falls on August 16. You must be eager to seek blessings at temples, attend bhajans, or participate in cultural activities. So, here's a curated list of Lord Krishna and Radha-inspired fashion looks that will help you dress in tune with the divine spirit.
Peacock Silhouettes
Lord Krishna is synonymous with peacocks. So why not take that as an inspiration and incorporate the nature-themed style in your OOTD choice? Women can choose from ample saree collections, while men can rock a peacock-inspired traditional avatar.
Floral Fits
Janmashthami is incomplete without flowers, especially Lord Krishna and Radha's embellished jhula (swing). So, you can choose floral-coded ethnic suits for the special occasion to mirror the festival's vibrant charm. You can either opt for soft pastels or bold patterns, keeping the flower theme in mind.
Blue-Yellow Fusion Outfits
Lord Krishna's signature blue complexion with the deity's rich yellow flute can be your sartorial inspiration for Janmashthami. Slip into a blue top and pair it with yellow bottoms. Make sure that if your top is bright, then your bottoms should be in a mellow hue and vice versa. A blue and yellow co-ord set with peacock prints would be perfect.
Blue Outfit With Golden Accessories
Another way to amp up your Janmashthami look is by reaching out for your favourite blue ethnic set and teaming up the monochrome fit with golden ornaments — be it jewellery for women or menswear accessories. After all, nothing beats the magic of contrasts
Flowy Numbers
You must have seen devotees dressing up Lord Radha and Krishna in flowy numbers, also known as Pitambara. You too can embrace the gracefully divine style by leaning on breezy fabrics such as georgette, silk or chiffon in hues of gold or blue and stay true to the tradition.

Kangana Ranaut Calls Out ‘Badtameez' Male Actors In Bollywood: ‘Heroine Ko Neecha Dikhana...'
Last Updated: Kangana Ranaut reveals most male actors in Bollywood are 'badtameez.' She discusses being sidelined, facing trouble, and her journey as an outsider in the industry. Actor and politician Kangana Ranaut has never shied away from speaking her mind about Bollywood and her journey as an outsider. In an interview with Hauterrfly, Kangana called out male actors in the industry, saying most of them are 'badtameez (impolite)', but she refused to let their behaviour affect her career. Kangana Talks About Impolite Behaviour On Sets When asked if she ever faced untoward advances from male actors, Kangana responded, 'Maine zyada heroes ke saath kaam hi nahi kiya hain! Mera main concern yahi tha ki badtameez bahut hain heroes." (I haven't worked with so many heroes. My concern was that these heroes were extremely impolite.) She clarified that her concerns were not about sexual harassment alone. Kangana explained, 'Sirf main sexual tareeke se nahi bol rahi hoon. Late aana set pe, badtameeziyan karna, heroine ko neecha dikhana, sideline karna, choti van dena… mujhe kaafi trouble bhi hua ki kitne cases ye mujh pe kiye isiliye kyuki main wahape inn cheezon se main okay nahi thi jabki most girls are okay with this, toh unko laga ki isko kyu itna ghamand hain." In essence, she highlighted how male actors' general impolite behaviour—coming late, sidelining heroines, or belittling them—caused her professional trouble, as she refused to accept it like others did. Kangana's Bollywood Journey Kangana made her acting debut with Anurag Basu's Gangster in 2006, produced by Mahesh Bhatt. She went on to appear in films like Woh Lamhe (2006) and Life In a Metro (2007) before landing the milestone project Fashion (2008) directed by Madhur Bhandarkar, for which she won her first National Film Award for Best Supporting Actress. Her career reached new heights with Queen (2014) and Tanu Weds Manu Returns (2015), earning multiple accolades and establishing her as one of Bollywood's most respected actresses. Kangana has won four National Awards in total and continues to take on diverse projects. She was last seen in Emergency, a film she directed, co-produced, and wrote, further proving her versatility in the industry. Despite facing multiple challenges as an outsider, Kangana's refusal to compromise on professionalism and self-respect has made her one of Bollywood's most outspoken and admired stars.

Saiyaara Stars Ahaan Panday, Aneet Padda Go On A Movie Date To Watch War 2
Last Updated: Despite mixed critical reviews, War 2 drew audiences to theatres, largely due to its star power and YRF branding. Saiyaara turned out to be a blockbuster, turning debutant Ahaan Panday and actress Aneet Padda into overnight sensations. The film grossed an impressive Rs 500 crore worldwide, cementing both actors' rising stardom. Following the film's success, speculation about the actors' off-screen relationship has been rife. Recently, the duo was spotted together at a theatre on a movie date to watch Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR's high-octane spy thriller, War 2. Fans were quick to notice Ahaan and Aneet twinning in black t-shirts and denim jeans, keeping their outing casual yet coordinated. A video circulating on social media shows paps approaching them for photographs, but Ahaan politely requested not to click pictures as they were running late. While the duo has not publicly confirmed their alleged relationship, the outing has fuelled romance rumours among fans. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Manav Manglani (@ Ahaan Panday And Aneet Padda's Journey To Stardom Ahaan Panday made his cinematic debut with Saiyaara, playing the lead opposite Aneet Padda, who previously appeared in supporting roles in films like Mohit Suri's Salaam Venky. Their on-screen chemistry in Saiyaara won hearts and contributed significantly to the film's box office success, giving both actors wide recognition. The film's ensemble cast also included Varun Badola, Rajesh Kumar, Alam Khan, Sid Makkar, Shaan Grover, and others in pivotal roles. Saiyaara's strong performance even allowed it to win the box office clash against Sonakshi Sinha's Nikita Roy, further solidifying Ahaan and Aneet as rising stars to watch. War 2 Box Office Collection The movie date coincided with the release of War 2 on August 14, which brought Hrithik Roshan, Jr NTR, and Kiara Advani together in a high-octane action thriller directed by Ayan Mukerji. Produced by Yash Raj Films, War 2 clashed with Rajinikanth's Coolie but still opened to Rs 52.50 crore worldwide on its first day. The Hindi version led with Rs 29 crore, Telugu collected Rs 23.25 crore, and other languages contributed Rs 0.25 crore. Despite mixed critical reviews, War 2 drew audiences to theatres, largely due to its star power and YRF branding. The film has proven to be a strong addition to the spy thriller genre, making it a hot choice for a movie date for stars like Ahaan and Aneet, who are clearly enjoying a night out away from the camera.
