Key Highlights

  • New post: Kareena Kapoor shared pictures calling herself “dil se desi.”
  • The song: The carousel is set to Diljit Dosanjh’s What Ve.
  • The look: A red bandhani suit, statement earrings, red bindi and soft waves.
  • The occasion: Her appearance with Saif Ali Khan on The Great Indian Kapil Show.
  • Crowd cheers: Kapil Sharma shared videos of the audience going wild as the couple arrived.

Kareena Kapoor Khan has shown off her “desi side” in a new set of pictures on Instagram. Dressed in a rich red bandhani suit and dupatta, she set the carousel to Diljit Dosanjh’s song What Ve, describing herself as “dil se desi.”

The look, complete with statement earrings, a red bindi, kohled eyes and soft waves, is from her recent appearance with husband Saif Ali Khan on The Great Indian Kapil Show.

A Loud Welcome on Kapil’s Show

Host Kapil Sharma had earlier shared two videos from the sets as Kareena and Saif arrived. In the first, a selfie video, the loud cheers and hooting of the audience could be heard in the background. In the second, Kapil turned the camera on the crowd, showing fans waving and cheering as Kareena and Saif posed with them.

Why It Matters: Bollywood Meets Punjabi Pop

Kareena’s choice of a Diljit Dosanjh track adds a fun twist to her traditional look. Diljit’s music has become a go-to soundtrack for festive and celebration posts, and pairing a Rajasthani-Gujarati bandhani outfit with a Punjabi pop song captures the spirit of the festive season, when styles and sounds from across India come together.

It’s also a busy time for the couple. Saif recently made his Instagram debut, and their joint appearance on Kapil’s show is expected to be one of its most-watched episodes.

In red bandhani and a Diljit soundtrack, Kareena Kapoor has made it clear where her heart is: dil se desi.
