A Starry Evening in Delhi
The fashion capital of India, Delhi, lit up as India Couture Week entered one of its most awaited nights. The venue was buzzing with excitement. Designers Falguni Shane Peacock had the spotlight, and they made sure their show reflected royalty, tradition, and elegance. But what really added charm to the night was the grand entry of Akshay Kumar, who stole the show in true royal fashion.
He was dressed in an ivory-colored bandhgala—a long, regal coat often worn by Indian princes. He paired it with classic black sunglasses and walked down the ramp like a true gentleman. His entire look gave off the vibe of a modern-day Indian prince, full of class and confidence.
Akshay Kumar: The Perfect Showstopper
Akshay Kumar’s entrance was one of the most talked-about moments of the night. As he walked the ramp, people could not take their eyes off him. The actor, known for his disciplined lifestyle and energetic persona, looked absolutely majestic. His outfit was inspired by royal Indian heritage, and the entire fashion line showcased a modern take on the traditional looks of kings and queens.
It wasn't just about clothes, though. The entire collection celebrated the luxury and richness of Indian royalty. The stage setup, the music, the lights, and the models—all combined to create a magical experience. But Akshay, with his strong walk and natural style, truly brought the theme alive.
A Fun Chat With the Media
After the show, Akshay Kumar spoke to the media and shared his experience. In his usual humorous and down-to-earth way, he said, “Main Hindi mein bolunga. Aap sabhi logo ka bohot bohot dhanyawad, jitne bhi yahan log aaye, aur media.”
Then, checking his watch, he laughed and added, “Kaafi late nahi ho gaya hai?”
This was a fun moment, as everyone knows Akshay is very particular about his schedule and usually goes to bed early. One of the reporters joked, “Dilli mein chalta hai sir,” to which Akshay replied with a cheeky smile, “Dilli mein chalta hai? Tabhi haal dekh tera.”
Everyone laughed, and this light-hearted exchange showed Akshay’s playful side. He further added, “Actually, after a long time I’m doing this ramp walk. Mujhe yaad hai, aaj se kareeban 12 saal pehle, maine inhi ke saath kiya tha. And it’s been an honour doing that.”
It was heartwarming to hear how much the moment meant to him. After more than a decade, returning to the ramp for the same designer duo made the experience even more special for the actor.
A Moment of Pride for India
While talking about his experience, Akshay also praised designers Falguni Shane Peacock. He appreciated the hard work that goes into putting together such a grand fashion event. He said, “I have enjoyed each and every bit of it. Specially, maine dekha hai ki kitna hard-work jaata hai ek show karne ke liye, organise karne ke liye. Aur 25 minute ke andar poora ka poora khatam ho jaata hai.”
He noticed how much preparation happens behind the scenes for just a 25-minute show. From the stunning outfits to the rehearsals, it’s all done with great care and effort. He continued, “Log itna saj dhaj ke aate hain aur 25 minute ke andar poora show khatam ho jaata hai. But I just want to tell you that Shane and Falguni, the way they present themselves in such an international way, I think they have made India so proud.”
Akshay’s words made it clear that he was deeply impressed by the international level of the show. He ended by saying, “I wish them lots of luck and I hope I get another chance to be with them.”
About Falguni Shane Peacock's Royal Collection
The designer duo Falguni Shane Peacock is known for their luxurious and glamorous creations. For this year’s India Couture Week, they chose to bring back the elegance of Indian maharajas and maharanis. Their new collection is inspired by royal courts, grand palaces, and traditional Indian fashion.
Every outfit was rich in detail—embroidery, sequins, beads, and beautiful fabrics. The colors were elegant and regal—gold, ivory, maroon, and deep green. Each piece told a story of India’s royal past while giving it a modern, wearable twist.
The designer team’s ability to blend history with modern fashion made their collection stand out. And with Akshay Kumar as the showstopper, the collection gained even more attention and admiration.
A Grand Success and Memorable Night
The evening ended on a high note. Fans, fashion lovers, and media couldn’t stop talking about Akshay Kumar’s grand ramp walk. Social media was flooded with pictures and videos of the actor in his royal avatar. People praised his style, his sense of humor, and his energy. The fashion world applauded the show, calling it one of the most memorable events of India Couture Week 2025.
