line that has us all doing a double take.
Draped in a sleek black Manish Malhotra bandhgala kurta and matching trousers, Karan skipped the usual ring stack and went instead for one oversized treasure: an 18 karat gold piece centered with a rectangular, deep-red gemstone and outlined in brilliant natural diamonds. At ₹2,94,800, it's not for the faint-hearted but then, neither is Johar's bold sense of style.

Rather than crowd his fingers, he let this single giant ring take centre stage. The effect? Instant drama and a masterclass in how to elevate a minimalist ethnic ensemble with one unforgettable accent. Topping off the look with clear-frame spectacles, Karan proved that true style isn't about more - it's about the right piece, worn with confidence.
For men itching to inject some personality into their outfits, this is your cue. Inspired by Karan's approach, reach for one standout ring - think a chunky signet with a coloured gemstone or a bold diamond piece and pair it with tailored neutrals: a sharp suit, a crisp bandhgala, or a clean kurta set. The key is restraint everywhere else, so your ring can shine without competition.
Of course, not everyone needs or wants a rock that big every day. If you're drawn to the drama of diamonds but prefer something more understated, opt for a smaller cocktail ring or a slim band set with a single sparkling stone. It will nod to the trend while feeling wearable for weddings, festive dinners, or date nights. And when in doubt, match your ring to your watch for a cohesive look that ties everything together.
Karan himself has always believed that jewellery is an extension of one's personality. As he told Vogue India in 2017, 'Jewellery adds to your personality and it all depends on how you are carrying it. On a regular day, wearing a small set could look heavy if you style it wrong; on a special occasion, you could still feel under-dressed if you lack confidence. So wear jewellery with conviction and be unapologetic about it.'
From WAVES 2025's glittering red carpet to your own wardrobe, take note: one incredible ring, worn well, can transform an outfit from simply stylish to truly iconic. Put on that bold piece, stand tall, and let your confidence do the rest.

Kajol opens up about parenting Nysa and Yug with Ajay Devgn: ‘They are very much their own people'
Kajol , who tied the knot with actor Ajay Devgn in 1999, is a proud mother to two children—Nysa and Yug. While she rarely shies away from celebrating her family on social media, the actress recently opened up about her parenting journey, the bond her kids share with her and Ajay, and how motherhood changed her. When asked if her children are more attached to her or Ajay, Kajol responded with her trademark wit and warmth, saying, 'They are both my children, I want to tell you that. Ajay Devgn is stage pe nahin baitha hua hai. Bata du. So they are both, honestly, they are my kids, they are his kids, they are our kids. And I am very proud to say that they are very much their own people.' 'I am Yug': Her son's diplomatic answer stole her heart Sharing an adorable anecdote from a conversation with her son Yug, Kajol recalled asking him who he wanted to resemble more—her or Ajay. She told Pinkvilla, 'I remember asking Yug, 'Who do you want to look like? Me or papa? Tell me fast.' He looked at me like I was holding a gun to his head and very calmly said, 'I look like Yug. I am Yug.'' The Maa actress said that moment summed up her children's individuality perfectly. 'I'm very, very happy to say that I've brought up two individuals who have their own personalities, who I hope I've taught to think for themselves. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 신차장기렌트 선납금 없어도 월 20만원대부터 가능할까? 렌트데이 더 알아보기 Undo That's been my biggest teaching as a parent.' On returning home: 'I am only mom' When Kajol walks back into her home after work, the transformation is instant. 'Mein jab bhi ghar pahunchti hu toh my kids are more like 'mumma', there's the whining and the 'why didn't you do this and why didn't you do that' that starts up. Once I see them, I am only mom. There's no other character I can play at that point.' Kajol Returns in Spine-Chilling Horror Drama 'MAA' | Myth Meets Fear Reflecting on the moment she first became a mother with the birth of Nysa in 2003, Kajol said, 'When Nysa was born, I felt like that's one exam I can't fail. I think my real-life performance has taken more out of me than any film will ever in my life demand of me.' Kajol is currently promoting her upcoming horror-mythology film Maa, directed by Vishal Furia and produced by Ajay Devgn. The film is slated for release on June 27.
