With Or Without?
Genelia performed at the Pantaloon Femina Miss India contest and before her performance was spotted in a maroon sari which we thought she looked great in.
Our only peeve was the leather belt. If she was going for a ‘kamar bandh’ look, a leather belt really wasn’t the best accessory to start with. We wished she had just gone without it, what about you?

Genelia looks amazing! are sleeveless, chinese collar blouses the ‘in’ thing now? first sonali and then genelia! i really the color and simplicity of the saree..
Oh my god – what beautiful sari!!! I said before and i’ll say again – this genelia is one to look out for, making some right decisions with recent appearances. Only the belt is so unnecessary and spoils the ensemble completely…. if i was at the event i’d cut some shears and cut off the damn belt even if it means getting arrested!
love the sari…but hate the belt. Genelia is so beautiful.
the leather belt totally has to go, but apart from that, genelia looks hot! and i love that blouse.
Love genelia’s appearance. The sari is elegant, lovely blouse, and though the belt is godawful, she pulls the look so well.
Here’s a girl who can pull off western outfits and desigear. Me wanna see saree on international red carpets.
agreed! she looks really great and elegant… but the leather belt must go! a traditional kamarbandh might have fared better
w/out..belt looks really out of place.
she looks pretty tho..reminds me of someone, but dnt know who lol??
I am in love with the blouse and the simple sari.
the bet is an eyesore
I agree the belt isn’t working but on the other hand…Genelia is so pretty and the sari is elegant…I would overlook anything for that smile lol
what a lovely sari and awesome blouse and beautiful smile
the belt is off for sure but i still applaud her for trying something
Love this look, minus the belt of course. What type of saree is that? Is it a chiffon? I want!
The belt and garish pink nail polish have to go. Pronto. I dislike the blouse…it has a certain cheap flavour to it. But I do love the deep purple bordered by the crimson and she looks good in those colours.
The blouse is yummy!! The belt has to go!
gorgeous sari
but why is trying to cover her stomach?
Wow…she’s looking fab… and for a sec i wont evn mind d belt, but yeah after a while, its annoying
Love love love the blouse..and love her..!!!!!Shes adorable !
Yeah, no kamar bandh
Hmm… interesting sari. Genelia is a cutie pie but I don’t think she has the grace for a sari…. yet. maybe it’s her petite body frame and the sari (big blouse, lots of pleats) she chose requires a fuller figure. she still looks good, but not great. something is missing.
Leather belt with a sari?? (Shudders) leave that aside, couldnt her make-up wali make sure her foundation doesnt look so cakey… THAT is a sure outfit ruinner in my book!
whose sari is it?
G looks fabulous, as usual. The belt spoils the look, though, why did she have to???
gorgeous blouse ya…me want!
M gonna stitch the same blouse, lovd it!
Genelia is GORGEOUS. Love the blouse and the saree gives her more height! Somehow, i can never fault her…even with that horrendous belt. =|
Glad to see a lovely saree without a trace of BLING. Even with the belt it is better than some of the jhatack sarees we’ve seen on celebs recently! Genelia is one of the pretty faces to watch out for. Her silver dress for the dance number was kinda ghastly though :)
Completely adore the blouse!
BTW any idea who is the designer of this lovely creation?
i like her..but this look seems so forced one..the weird blouse the sari wrapped like kamwali bai n the belt..nahhh…or may b shes young thats y i m not able to like it on her…
ohh din c her pallu hangin thats y the kamwali bai statment..but still a nah..
hate the belt.. didnt fancy her performance that much ..
Thats a FULL ON what they heyyy! i mean its a little thing gone wrong…but it looks VERY wrong!
The belt is ghastly, but my god she looks stunning. I love that ‘purplish wine-red + bright red’ colour combo – it’s so unusual but it looks fabulous and she really makes it work. And that blouse…awesome! :)
Wow!!! What a refreshing look! She looks amazing! And has a figure to die for….
She is wearing Tarun Tahiliani from Spring summer 2008 i think
I find this whole look ridiculous!!!…its a Wtheyyy for me …
THE POSITION OF HER HANDS IN ALL THE PICS IS WEIRD !!!!
shilpa shetty does it often..
Love the colour and the blouse but very weird accessory with the leather belt. I wouldn’t dream of putting a sari and a leather belt together in a closet let alone on my person!
Yep, she should have worn it without the belt..it looks so out of place and weird
But she does look verrrry beautiful in that deep red color. Hmm i think this is the first time i’ve seen her in desi clothes…it suits her well :)
What purpose does the belt even serve? Genelia, take that thing off and go be fabulous in that gorgeous sari!
EDIT: OMG I think I have to take that back- holy hot pink press-on nails! tsk…. >:(
Love the blouse
there is something very discomforting about her posture and the position of her hands
I think the reason Genelia’s hand is so awkwardly placed is because she’s trying to allow the pleats to fall back into place.
The belt is atrocious, but the sari is gorgeous. I don’t really like the blouse; it gives the outfit a costume-y feel.
the sari she is wering is a tarun tahliani..its mentioned in the vogue india autumn winter trend report..page 19..
genelia looka gorgeous in it..
bt then it is a TARUN..!!
yes it is tarun talliani…even his version had the belt with it even though i dont understand it :( she looks gorgeous though!
I like Genelia very much!
she looks really cute in this sari but the belt is not so good
but genrelly she is looking pretty!
she looks fab..the belt adds a modern edge to the traditional saree..i wud totally do the same look!
