Sanya Malhotra Speaks Of Budget Woes, Her Style Statement & Living Alone In Mumbai

‘Bollywood celebrities must not repeat their clothes’ – this is an unwritten but the most followed rule in the book of fashion! And most of our beloved stars do take extra care to avoid repeating their designer outfits at events. But those who dare to break this golden rule are often bombarded with criticism and trolls on social media. But Dangal’s Dhaakad girl Sanya Malhotra isn’t scared of any of them!

Recently in an interview, Sanya opened up about the million dollar question of a Bollywood star repeating outfits, reports TOI.

“Listen, clothes are very expensive. I don’t mind repeating clothes at all. It’s pretty normal,” she frankly said. “I feel glad that I have a team of great stylists who dress me up. They don’t let me repeat clothes. But personally, whenever I go out I don’t mind repeating clothes because clothes are very expensive.”

“I am trying not to buy fast fashion brands and switch to sustainable fashion. Sustainable clothes are damn expensive. Itna budget nahi hai (I don’t have enough budget),” she added.

From airport looks to red carpets, fashion statements of Bollywood celebrities do create a hoo-ha in the industry. Most of them also love to keep their fashion game on point always. But for Sanya comfort is above style!

“I like wearing nice clothes and dressing up. At the same time, I know that I can’t be perfect all the time. Actors don’t have to be conscious all the time or up their game when it comes to fashion,” she said.

She further added, “Personally, I am a very laid-back and a lazy person. I have tried a lot… to be perfect all the time. It doesn’t suit me. It doesn’t make me happy and I do things that make me happy.”

“I am a very moody person. So if I am in a mood, I will dress up and wear heels. If I am not in a mood, I really don’t care if people judge me on social media or not. I can’t go about telling everyone that ‘don’t do it’. You can choose to not listen to them,” she said.

As for her hair, she said she loves flaunting her curly locks.

“I naturally have curly hair and I don’t like to experiment with my hair a lot. Not a lot of people have curls, so I embrace them. I keep it open all the time or make a bun with my texture intact,” said Sanya.

But she likes to experiment with her hair in films.

“For ‘Dangal’, I had a pixie haircut. In ‘Pataakha’, it was straight. As actors, it’s our responsibility to look the part, and to look the part sometimes we have to change a bit of our hairstyle or put on weight or gain muscles. I won’t say I won’t (experiment with her looks), otherwise I will end up not experimenting with my characters at all.”

Isn’t it very relatable? Sanya’s view on repeating clothes clearly shows that she ‘just like us’! After all, why not repeat the clothes you love or the ones you have spent a lot on? It’s not a big deal at all!
