Shriya Saran at 56th South Filmfare Awards 2009: A First Look
August 2nd, 2009 at 11:03 am . by Payal

When it comes to traditional wear, Ms. Saran surely picks the tackiest outfit possible. A different color and a skirt minus the patchwork design and I might have liked (and that’s a big might) , but as is, this outfit is yikes. Can’t believe am gonna suggest this, but boy, even a Manish Malhotra blingy sari would have been so much better!

Update: Shriya is wearing a Neeta Lulla creation.
