Deepika Padukone is a bonafide diva. The actress has gone from strength to strength since she made her debut in Om Shanti Om. She’s also firmly cemented her place as one of the best-dressed Bollywood stars pulling off both Indian and Western outfits with aplomb. Here we trace her Bollywood style evolution.

Om Shanti Om (2007)

Padukone’s first ever film she was styled in a completely retro look. She rocked a bouffant, winged liner and salwaar kameez’s in bright colours such as rani pink, oranges and neon blues.

In this movie Deepika played the ultimate femme fatale outfitted in a black spandex catsuit. She also went for a beauty look that’s never been repeated since now – bangs. I personally loved the fringe on her.

Her most de-glam role till date, Deepika sported plaits and muted coloured saris to portray the look of a village belle in the 1930s. Her natural beauty shines in this character.

Anaita Shroff- Adajania styled her to perfection. Padukone’s character Veronica was boho, fashion forward and exuded sex appeal. I think this film will be remembered more for the fashion than the story.

Which look of hers is your favourite?
