Met Gala 2025 LIVE Updates: SRK, Priyanka Chopra Bring India's Star Power To Fashion's Biggest Red Carpet
Met gala 2025 Red carpet Live Updates: It's a historic night for Indian fashion and cinema as Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra are set to walk the Met Gala red carpet, leading what is arguably India's most talked-about contingent yet at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The megastars, both global icons in their own right, are bringing a burst of Bollywood to fashion's biggest night.
SRK's debut at the Met is already creating waves. He was spotted arriving in NYC with his manager Pooja Dadlani and is expected to wear a regal creation by Sabyasachi Mukherjee, marking a grand entry in quintessential Indian style. Meanwhile, Priyanka Chopra, who has turned heads at the Met in Ralph Lauren, Dior, and Valentino in previous years, is returning for her fifth appearance. This year, she's reportedly set to stun in Balmain with statement pieces from Bulgari. Whether Nick Jonas will walk beside her remains to be seen, but excitement is high.
Joining the power-packed Indian line-up is actress Kiara Advani, who will also be making her Met debut. The actress, currently expecting her first child with husband Sidharth Malhotra, teased her fans with a glimpse of a booklet titled The Met Gala. She is reportedly donning a dramatic ensemble by avant-garde designer Gaurav Gupta, promising a sculptural fashion moment. Punjabi superstar Diljit Dosanjh has been keeping things low-key but dropped a not-so-subtle Instagram hint: 'First Time,' paired with an hourglass emoji and the track 'Met Gala' by Gunna. Fans are hoping for a surprise moment on the steps.
Fashion icon Natasha Poonawalla, philanthropist Mona Patel, and business heiress Isha Ambani—who left jaws dropping in a Rahul Mishra couture look last year—are all expected to walk tonight. With the theme 'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style' and the dress code 'Tailored For You', this year's Met promises bold suiting, couture risks and cultural pride.
And tonight, India is showing up in full style force. Stay tuned for every look, moment and desi takeover from the Met steps, live from New York.
