Chitrangda Singh: I like when an outfit allows me to feel like the most authentic version of myself
As much as her acting skills are lauded, Chitrangda Singh creates equal noise with her classic style. But for her, it's all about showing your individuality. 'Fashion should never overpower who you are, it should quietly reflect your essence. I've gravitated towards styles that feel effortless yet striking,' she says.

'I enjoy observing trends, but I'm never in a rush to follow them. For me, fashion is more intuitive if a trend aligns with my aesthetics and feels comfortable, I embrace it. But I do not believe in wearing something purely because it's 'in.' I think the most memorable style statements come from individuality,' she insists.

It wasn't always refined, but it was bold and expressive.' Outfit: Wazir C | Jewellery: ASV Polkis | Chitrangda is a beauty as she dons a delicate ivory saree featuring a soft organza drape and a georgette blouse, detailed with Kashmiri aari and Tilla embroidery.

Outfit: Chique Clothing | Jewellery: Soni Sapphire | Chitrangda looks beautiful in this emerald green kurta featuring a burst of hand-painted florals paired with loose pants. Her look is further elevated by a 92.5 sterling silver necklace set.(Photographer: Vivek Desai) But traditional or modern fashion, what is her go-to? 'There's something special about traditional fashion. It carries culture, history, and emotion whether it's a handwoven saree or heirloom jewellery, it feels rooted and timeless. At the same time, I love the versatility and freshness of contemporary fashion as it allows for reinvention and self-expression. I think the beauty lies in blending the two, bringing a traditional grace to modern silhouettes or giving ethnic pieces a contemporary twist,' she states.

Confirmed! Chitrangda Singh To Star Opposite Salman Khan In Battle Of Galwan
The film's director, Apoorva Lakhia, has announced that Chitrangda will star opposite Salman Khan in the highly anticipated, Battle of Galwan. This war drama, based on actual events at the India-China border, marks the first collaboration between Salman and Chitrangda. Apoorva Lakhia, known for his intense storytelling and gritty narratives, praised Chitrangda's talent and screen presence, highlighting her as the perfect choice for the role. 'I've always wanted to work with Chitrangda since seeing her outstanding performance in Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi and then Bob Biswas," he said, adding, 'We are delighted to welcome Chitrangda Singh to the cast of Battle of Galwan.

Battle of Galwan draws from the real events of June 2020, when Indian and Chinese troops clashed in the remote, high-altitude Galwan Valley of Ladakh. Bound by standing agreements prohibiting gunfire, the confrontation turned into one of the deadliest border skirmishes in over forty years. Against daunting odds and extreme conditions, the Indian Army showed extraordinary courage, engaging in hand-to-hand combat with makeshift weapons like stones and sticks. Battle of Galwan is shaping up to be one of the most awaited films of the year, not only for its compelling subject but also for its fresh casting choices. With Salman Khan leading the cast and Chitrangda Singh joining the ensemble, expectations are sky-high. The filming is set to begin later this year.

Twenty Indian soldiers had died during the Galwan valley clash on June 16, 2020, five years ago, while the Chinese side also faced heavy casualties. Following the clashes, tensions between India and China rose with the army deploying formations near the Galwan Valley, along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in Ladakh and undertook a range of activities such as surveying border areas to stop a 'possible' Chinese aggression. Since the clashes, India and China have disengaged from various border areas steadily, and have also created a buffer zone in various areas.
