Ram Charan In A Classic Shantanu Nikhil Bandhgala For The Oscars
Designer Nikhil Mehra talks about the making of the custom look:
“As designers, when we create an ensemble, we often go observe the ethos, principles, and integrity, the wearer holds. On the momentous occasion of Ram Charan representing our country, specially RRR at the Oscars, we knew we had to do design a piece that honours his character in the film.
Ram is playing a character of a fighter, who empowers the ones in need, and stands strong for his beliefs. The ensemble has military nuances, which always been signature Shantnu & Nikhil ethos. The bandhgala has customised Chakra button, medallion-inspired brooches, layered over the classic S&N feminine drape kurta with a gender fluid twist- that celebrates the new India and goes beyond borders.
We know a cinematic marvel is created by finesse in details, and the ensemble embodies exactly the same.”
