Okay, don’t get us wrong. We love a mean salwar-kurta combo, a pretty lehenga choli set and even the fact that shararas are making a big comeback. But when we saw Sushmita Sen step out in her short dress for a Diwali party, we were even more in love with her personality. You can safely assume that a lady like Sushmita Sen is hard to come by. She lives by her own rules, and sets out on her own path and her entire life is proof. This lil instance, where she wore a dress to a traditional Diwali house party only proves that she is her own woman—and that is exactly why we adore her.
