Babil Khan Celebrates Indian Crafts In Abhishek Sharma's Latest Collection
Last Updated: Abhishek Sharma's latest Resort Wear 2025 collection blends kantha embroidery from West Bengal and kalamkari painting motifs from Andhra Pradesh. Actor Babil Khan has turned muse for designer Abhishek Sharma's latest Resort Wear 2025 collection. The actor took to his Instagram to share images of the designer's new collection that was shot on a yacht. Dressed in a light-hued ensemble, the collection highlights the kantha embroidery from West Bengal and kalamkari painting motifs from Andhra Pradesh that have been enhanced by the designer's refined detailing. Taking to his Instagram, Babil Khan shared a series of pictures where he posed with Miss India Universe 2019 Vartika Singh. Called Threads of Tradition On The Sea, the latest collection captures the coastal calm through the lens of heritage and modernity. The actor donned two looks from the collection. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Babil (@babil.i.k) For the first look, Babil donned a sleeveless statement top that was adorned with ruffles. The high-neck top featured draped details and embroidery all over. He paired this top with a pair of relaxed pants and a summer jacket. For the second look, the actor sported a boxy-silhouette linen jacket that featured kalamkari motifs in cutwork pattern. He paired it with matching coloured pants. Talking about his muses, Sharma said, 'Babil Khan and Vartika Singh's exotic charm and quiet intensity echo the ethos of the brand. Babil's presence adds soul and depth to the menswear line, and Vartika brings opulence and regal charm to the handcrafted silhouettes. Together, they don't just wear the clothes — they inhabit them, turning each frame into a visual poem." The alluring, relaxed, boxy silhouettes define the season, cut away from the body, easy in movement, and deeply comforting. For menswear, the collection includes cropped jackets that are paired with high-waisted, loose trousers. The shirts feature abstract Kantha embroidery that dances across the fabric like waves on water. For womenswear, the collection offers delicate bustiers hand-embroidered with Kantha motifs, and short dresses adorned with story-rich threadwork. The collection is a meditative tribute to Indian craftsmanship, effortless luxury with sustainability at its core. At the heart of this collection is a unique fusion of Kantha embroidery from West Bengal and Kalamkari painting motifs from Andhra Pradesh. The pieces have been crafted from raw, undyed handloom cotton, mulmul and linen. With light, earthy hues, the collection embraces a palette drawn from nature itself.

I genuinely wanted to stand by him even until an hour ago. But if you're taking us for granted, that stops here. These sympathy games won't work on us anymore.

Later in his Instagram post, Babil announced that he exited the film "due to unforeseen circumstances", adding that he will take some time off.

Babil Khan steps away from hindi remake of ‘Baby'; Sai Rajesh responds
Babil Khan, son of legendary actor Irrfan Khan, has officially exited the Hindi remake of the 2023 Telugu blockbuster Baby. Taking to Instagram, Babil revealed that while he and director Sai Rajesh had set out to create something magical, unforeseen circumstances led to a halt in their collaboration. The young actor announced that he would be taking a break from acting, expressing gratitude and best wishes to the film's team. 'With a lot of grit, passion, and mutual respect, Sai Rajesh sir and I began this journey. Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. I will be taking some time off and wish the best to the team,' Babil wrote. Director Sai Rajesh responded warmly, calling Babil one of the most talented and hardworking actors he has met. 'I will miss my Hero! I respect his decision to prioritize self-care and wish him all the best,' he shared. Interestingly, Babil's exit follows a recent online spat between the actor and the director, where Babil had also posted an emotional video criticizing Bollywood's biases. Although both parties deleted their posts, the incident hinted at underlying tensions. The original Baby, directed by Sai Rajesh and starring Anand Deverakonda, Vaishnavi Chaitanya, and Viraj Ashwin, was a major success in Telugu cinema. With Babil stepping away, anticipation now builds over who will take on the lead role in the much-awaited Hindi adaptation.
