Let’s take a closer look at their ensembles!Shruti Haasan stuns in a red cocktail saree
Shruti Haasan leaned into classic eveningwear with a striking red cocktail saree for the INCA Awards 2026. The drape featured delicate, evenly spaced gold motifs scattered across the body, lending it a refined shimmer rather than an overpowering shine. What stood out most was the scalloped gold border running along the pallu – intricately embroidered with a lace-like finish – while the neatly pleated pallu itself was draped fluidly over the shoulder. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Manav Manglani (@manav.manglani) Her blouse complemented the saree with precision – a sleeveless, deep V-neck design rendered in dense gold embroidery, similar to the lace-like embellishments on the border of the saree. The embroidery extended seamlessly to the back, mirroring the same motifs as the rest of the saree, ensuring visual continuity. The structured cut of the blouse, paired with its heavy embellishment, anchored the fluidity of the saree beautifully. Shruti kept her styling rooted in traditional elegance – long, straight hair worn loose with a centre parting, a small bindi, and statement gold chandelier jhumkas that echoed the hues and tones of her ensemble. Her makeup was soft yet polished, letting the saree and blouse remain the focal point while the jewellery added just enough drama.Kamal Haasan’s tailored brown suit

The double-breasted jacket, paired with a tonal shirt and tie, created a seamless, monochromatic look. With its muted palette, clean lines and structured fit, the ensemble allowed his daughter’s vibrant saree to take centre stage, while still holding its own with quiet sophistication.
