Shilpa Shetty reveals her all-time favourite look – And it’s from her iconic Dhadkan days
Even after decades of ruling Bollywood, Shilpa Shetty Kundra continues to be admired not just for her acting chops but also for her impeccable style. Recently, on The Right Angle Season 2, produced by Gautam Thakker Films, the actress surprised fans by naming her Dhadkan look as her all-time favourite.
“Dhadkan was the perfect mix of classy and massy,” Shilpa candidly revealed. “Dressed in creations by Manish Malhotra and Vikram Phadnis, I was covered up to my neck, no cleavage was showing, yet they still made me look glamorous. The wardrobe was elegant yet modest, but it became a national talking point. The songs were superhits, the clothes were stunning, and the role was so well-received that even after 25 years, people still talk about it. I feel very grateful.”
Released in 2000, Dhadkan became one of Bollywood’s most celebrated romantic dramas. Directed by Dharmesh Darshan, the film starred Shilpa Shetty alongside Akshay Kumar and Suniel Shetty, delivering unforgettable performances that blended romance, drama, and timeless music. Tracks like ‘Dil Ne Yeh Kaha Hai Dil Se’ and ‘Tum Dil Ki Dhadkan Mein’ remain evergreen favourites, while Shilpa’s graceful presence in elegant saris and traditional ensembles turned her into a fashion inspiration for millions.
Today, Shilpa continues to embrace selective projects in cinema. Recently, she was seen in Sukhee, where she impressed audiences with her relatable performance as a homemaker rediscovering herself. She was also a part of the pan-Indian project, KD: The Devil, which created buzz for its grand scale and ensemble cast.
Outside of films, the actress remains one of the most active celebrities on social media. From spreading awareness about fitness and healthy living through yoga videos to indulging in her famous ‘Sunday binge’, where she enjoys some of the most delicious food in Mumbai and other locations, Shilpa has struck the perfect balance between discipline and indulgence. Her posts continue to inspire fans across generations, cementing her place as one of Bollywood’s most loved and followed stars.
As Shilpa reflects on her journey, it’s clear why her Dhadkan avatar remains etched in public memory — it captured a timeless elegance that continues to define her even today. And with new roles on the horizon, Shilpa Shetty is proving that some stars only shine brighter with time.
