Kareena Kapoor's Beachwear Gets A Desi Twist With Lungi-Inspired Skirt And Swim Top
For her beach holiday in Greece, Kareena Kapoor ditched the sarong and opted for a chic lungi-inspired skirt along with her swim top.
Kareena Kapoor Khan has long reigned as one of Bollywood's most effortlessly stylish stars, and her recent vacation look proves why she continues to be a fashion trailblazer. Currently soaking in the sun on a picturesque family holiday in Greece, the actor has been serving one sartorial moment after another. But it's her latest outfit that truly turned heads – a striking fusion of modern beachwear and traditional Indian aesthetics.
Breaking away from her signature bikini-and-kaftan combo, Kareena Kapoor opted for a fresh take on coastal fashion. She sported a vibrant yellow halterneck swim top, complete with a playful back-tie detail that brought an element of flirty charm. Instead of pairing it with shorts or a sarong, she chose an unconventional yet eye-catching piece: a lungi-inspired skirt.
Take a look at Kareena's beach fit here.
Kareena Kapoor's Lungi-Inspired Skirt
The skirt, a long, ankle-grazing number, featured a bottle green checkered print interwoven with fine white and red lines, creating a plaid design that felt equal parts relaxed and fashion-forward. The hemline featured dainty lace trims that added a feminine allure to the skirt. The high-waisted silhouette added structure while maintaining the fluidity of traditional draping, allowing her to stroll the beaches of Greece in true Kareena style – minimal, bold, and utterly unique.
Staying true to her fuss-free glam, the actress completed the ensemble with oversized black sunglasses and a classic black baseball cap – accessories that kept the focus on her outfit while protecting her from the Mediterranean sun. Her hair was left open in soft, tousled waves, and her makeup was kept refreshingly minimal, highlighting her natural glow.
From red carpets to sandy shores, Kareena's fashion choices consistently strike the perfect balance between comfort and statement. Her lungi-skirt moment is a masterclass in how to reimagine traditional elements in contemporary settings—and we're taking notes.
Kareena Kapoor's Upcoming Movies
On the work front, Kareena was last seen in Singham Again, where she shared the screen with Ajay Devgn, Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone, and Arjun Kapoor. The actor will be next seen in Meghna Gulzar's Daayra.

Saiyaara Getting A Sequel After Blockbuster Success? Shaan, Who Played Mahesh Iyer, REACTS
Last Updated: Saiyaara fans are speculating a sequel featuring Krish, Vaani and Mahesh. Shaan R Grover responds to the buzz and shares emotional fan reactions. After Saiyaara's box office storm, fans are already dreaming about a sequel and now, one of the film's key characters is reacting to the buzz. While Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda's characters Krish Kapoor and Vaani Batra find a fairytale ending in Mohit Suri's romantic drama, fans haven't stopped thinking about the antagonist, Mahesh Iyer, played by Shaan R Grover. In an interview with Zoom, Shaan shared his thoughts on the possibility of Saiyaara 2. 'As far as my character is concerned, a lot can be done later. Mahesh just vanished; it was abrupt," he said, before adding, 'Maybe it can be explored if these characters decide to go on a different journey. What if Vaani wants to meet Mahesh one last time, that could be a different character arc for Krish. There are no talks for the sequel right now. It depends on YRF and Mohit Suri." Interestingly, AI-generated fan art showing Krish and Vaani as parents has been going viral, further fuelling speculation about a sequel. Shaan also revealed how he and Aneet Padda prepared for the emotionally complex dynamic between their characters. 'Aneet and I had chemistry workshops. They were for us to bond with each other. When we have rehearsed, those scenes flow easily," he said. 'It was also to show that we dated for five years. For the backstory in the original script I had read, we had dated for five years and that's a long relationship. It shouldn't have felt that we met 2-3 months ago." On playing a morally grey character, he confessed, 'Of course, it is not easy to play such characters. I am not Mahesh Iyer. That's not how I function… A friend of mine experienced something similar and couldn't stop crying while watching Aneet's performance. Her 7-year-long relationship broke because her partner didn't want to marry and then ghosted her. That's when I realised that people like Mahesh do exist." Directed by Mohit Suri and produced by Yash Raj Films, Saiyaara released in theatres on July 18 and has since crossed Rs 150 crore at the box office.

" Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma called him "a leading light of the Theatre of Roots movement," saying, "Shri Ratan Thiyam dedicated his life to bring indigenous theatre and art practices to the global stage. A Padma awardee, his productions were rich in talent and messaging." Meghalaya chief minister Conrad Sangma said: "He was a visionary who redefined Indian theatre by blending contemporary form with the cultural soul of Manipur. His legacy will continue to inspire." West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee mourned him as "a true legend who put Manipuri theatre on the global map" and said, "His unique blend of tradition and experiment enriched Indian performing arts immensely and resonated worldwide." Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi, deputy leader in the Lok Sabha, also expressed his grief, saying, "Thiyam's legacy will continue to inspire generations to come." Renowned Kolkata-based theatre veterans like Rudra Prasad Sengupta and Kaushik Sen also paid tribute, recalling Thiyam's frequent presence at theatre festivals in the city and his powerful influence on modern Indian theatre. Ratan Thiyam was a trailblazer of the "Theatre of Roots" movement, which synthesised Indian classical, folk, and tribal performance forms with contemporary theatrical expression. He founded the Chorus Repertory Theatre in Imphal in 1976, which became a national and international symbol of rooted yet experimental theatre. His groundbreaking works like Chakravyuha, Urubhangam, Uttar Priyadarshi, and Lengshonnei challenged the boundaries of traditional Indian theatre and brought the richness of Manipuri aesthetics, spirituality, and politics to the global stage. He was the recipient of many prestigious awards, including Padma Shri (1989) and Sangeet Natak Akademi Award (1987). He relinquished the Padma Shri in 2001 in protest against the Centre's decision to extend the ceasefire with the Nationalist Socialist Council of Nagaland. Ratan Thiyam's passing is not only a great loss for Manipur, which he deeply loved and represented through his art, but also for the entire nation and the global theatre community. His relentless pursuit of truth, his seamless weaving of text and tradition, and his unmatched visual poetics have etched his name into the canon of world theatre.
