    Few actors in Bollywood have built a beauty identity as instantly recognisable as Alia Bhatt. Whether she’s walking a red carpet, attending a wedding, or posting a bare-faced selfie, the actor has long championed fresh skin, soft glam, and effortlessly wearable looks — earning her the unofficial title of Bollywood’s original glow girl.


    On her birthday, we’re revisiting ten of her most memorable beauty moments — from dewy minimalism to smoky-eye drama — that prove no one does modern, luminous glamour quite like her.

    1. Soft romantic glam with glowing skin

    A peachy blush, nude lips, and lit-from-within skin set the tone for one of her prettiest looks. Paired with softly pulled-back hair and delicate jewellery, the makeup stayed fresh and romantic, letting Alia's natural features do all the talking.

    2. Champagne shimmer eyes and glossy glow

    Alia Bhatt’s love for champagne-toned eyeshadow never fails. Here, shimmery lids, highlighted cheekbones, and a glossy lip created a soft-glam finish that felt radiant without looking heavy — a signature formula she returns to often.

    3. Warm smoky eyes with sculpted brows

    For a more defined red-carpet moment, she leaned into warm brown smoky eyes, sharp brows, and softly contoured skin. The look balanced drama and elegance, proving she can turn up the intensity while keeping things polished.

    4. Power dressing with minimal makeup

    In a sleek, pulled-back hairstyle and neutral makeup, Alia showed the strength of clean beauty. Matte skin, subtle liner, and nude lips gave the look a sharp, editorial feel — perfect for a structured outfit.

    5. Centre-parted waves with shimmer lids

    Loose centre-parted hair paired with glowy skin and lightly shimmery eyelids created an easy, modern party look. The makeup stayed soft-toned, letting the shine on the eyes add just enough sparkle.

    6. Bronzed skin and smoky brown eyes

    One of her most flattering combinations — bronzed base, kohl-smudged eyes, and a loosely tied bun with face-framing strands. The look felt warm, effortless, and unmistakably Alia.

    7. Luminous skin with a sleek bun

    Fresh, almost bare skin paired with a tight centre-parted bun is a beauty move she repeats often. With just a hint of blush and mascara, the focus stayed on her natural glow and delicate features.

    8. Pin-straight hair with sculpted contour

    For a sharper red-carpet moment, she went for sleek, straight hair with softly contoured cheeks and smoky kohl eyes. The contrast between structured hair and diffused makeup gave the look a modern edge.

    9. Bold lips with luminous base

    A strapless black outfit, glowing skin, and a bold berry lip made this one of her most striking appearances. The minimal eye makeup allowed the lip colour to take centre stage while keeping the overall look sophisticated.

    10. Dewy glam with winged liner

    A classic winged liner, glossy skin, and a neat bun finished with a delicate choker made for a timeless beauty moment. The look blended traditional elegance with her trademark fresh-faced glow.

    For Manifest to become one of Cambridge Dictionary's most viewed words of 2024 — 1,30,000 hits and counting — it means some of us must have Googled it at least once. I know, I hit that search button over and over again

    Putting together a homegrown title at a time when the demise of print has been long announced may seem surprising...
    ...but it has long been a dream of mine to give India a magazine it deserves. A magazine that is the country.

    And nothing, absolutely nothing, represents India more than our weddings.It is a time when families are brought together. Traditions come alive as they are adapted to each couple's beliefs. And lives are joined in a way that the romantic in me still enjoys.
