How Bollywood's men styled short kurtas for Manish Malhotra's Diwali bash
The short kurta is establishing itself as a huge festive trend and Bollywood's coolest men are making sure you notice. From the soft and nice vibe by Rohit Saraf to the casual, cool energy of Siddhant Chaturvedi, the style memo for this Diwali trend is: short kurtas when you're searching for comfort, classy style, and a hint of red carpet.
Manish Malhotra Diwali party
At Manish Malhotra's Diwali party, Saraf and Chaturvedi had sharp, fuss-free looks in their short kurtas, festive and stylish. The sleek, modern designs, and the wide, flowy white trousers underneath, went great together.
You could tell there was a need to balance the cropped length. The minimal, clean silhouettes merged tradition with a social comfort level for the holiday. Rohit's was soft and elegantly simple, while Shiddhant's was masculine and edgy - showing that short kurtas can be flattering for any personality.

Style like Ayushmann Khurrana
Ayushmann Khurrana injected his signature experimental twist into the party. Khurrana wore loose-fitting black trousers with his black kurta, but the real standout was the draped stole he paired with it - the accessory infused a regal vibe that elevated the look.
The crux of Ayushmann's aim was to keep things comfortable while incorporating a hint of drama for an evening out during the festive season.
Keep it classy like Bobby Deol
Bobby Deol - you're guaranteed to see some variation. The maroon-on-maroon look of his might seem trivial, but it was all about the execution of fabrics. Deol separated maroon top from pants of maroon in slightly different finishes and materials - the ambiguity in textures achieved a layered effect that was engaging while still refined.
His tonal look said ‘edgy elegance’. In other words, monochrome dressing is bold and still understated and a powerful way to make a style statement.
Aditya Seal and Karan Tacker short kurta looks
Aditya Seal took an extra step with his jacket - meets the kurta look - sleek, structured and perfectly fitted. It was the best ensemble in the occasion for someone who loves a clean cut and shape.
Karan Tacker took the opposite route with the classic look and put a spin on it. His fitted pants reminded us of how the perfect fit will make or break your festive outfit. The length, fit, and shape were on point - this outfit proved to be a reminder that the little things really are the most important.
