Deepika Padukone's appearance at Sabyasachi's 25th-anniversary fashion show received mixed reactions from the public. She made her first runway walk since becoming a mother, opening the show in a monochrome white ensemble featuring tailored pants, an oversized trench coat, oversized glasses, and layered necklaces.

Some critics compared her appearance to that of Rekha from the 1988 film "Khoon Bhari Maang" and even to Frida Kahlo due to her hairstyle. Others drew parallels to Ranveer Singh's quirky fashion sense, jokingly calling her the "female Ranveer Singh" and labeling her outfit as "Desi Madonna". These comparisons were largely negative, with many expecting a more refined and elegant look from Deepika, especially considering her past collaborations with Sabyasachi had been well-received.In contrast, Alia Bhatt, who also walked the ramp at the same event, received high praise for her black saree look, which was adorned with a bejeweled blouse, making her appear like royalty. This further highlighted the divided opinions on Deepika's outfit, which left fans and critics alike disappointed, despite her confident and poised appearance on the runway.
