Disha Patani Recreates Dhak-Dhak Saree Look

Inspired by Madhuri’s unforgettable appearance in the 1992 hit song Dhak Dhak Karne Laga, Disha’s outfit paid homage to the bold orange saree that helped define sensuality in Hindi cinema during the early ’90s. The original look, featuring a conical halter-neck blouse and a low-slung drape that revealed the midriff, transformed Madhuri into a pop culture phenomenon and earned her the nickname Dhak Dhak girl for decades to follow.

Disha’s updated interpretation stayed true to the original palette, opting for a vibrant orange hue. However, she added a touch of contemporary flair. Her blouse, embroidered and full-sleeved, featured a plunging sweetheart neckline, while the saree itself was draped low across her waist, echoing the sensual styling of the original. She kept her accessories minimal a pair of delicate earrings and wore her hair down in loose waves. Her makeup was soft and dewy, letting the outfit take center stage.

In a sharp critique, it posted, “Some tributes are best left in the archives It’s a NO. Not homage, not nostalgia just a watered-down rerun (and looks tacky on her?) with none of Madhuri’s original sensuality. Next!”
