Rai’s outfit, designed by Falguni and Shane Peacock, featured a dramatic black gown adorned with intricate golden patterns. The gown's long train, embellished with golden flowers, added a touch of grandeur to her look. The voluminous ruffled sleeves and the striking golden pattern on the front made her stand out on the red carpet.

Fans React on Social Media

As soon as the latest red carpet photos of Aishwarya hit the internet, reactions poured in on platforms like Reddit, Instagram, and X. Fans and fashion enthusiasts were quick to share their thoughts on her look. On Reddit, a user shared photos of the actor, prompting a wave of comments. One user noted, "Finally, the hair is away from the face. Thank you. She looks good, but the outfit is meh."

This sentiment was echoed by another commenter who said, "Love the hair. She looks gorgeous. The outfit is really bad, though. There’s a lot happening, and for some reason, the golden work on the front is looking cheaply made. Probably because of the fabric they chose. I'm hoping for a better outfit for the next event."
