‘Begum’ Kareena Kapoor Khan’s 200-year-old diamond kalgi and 30 carat emerald steal the spotlight this Diwali

On Diwali, Bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor Kapoor made headlines with her fashion ensemble, which featured a 200-year-old kalgi believed to have been worn by the last Nawab of Bhopal and later by actor Saif Ali Khan on his wedding day. The ornate diamond kalgi, adorned with feathers inspired by the Prince of Wales, is a family heirloom passed down through generations of the former Bhopal royal family.

Kareena paired the heirloom with a beige kaftan by designer Punit Balana, styled with intricate silver work and a V-shaped neckline. Her look was completed with a matching beige turban, a gold necklace with green accents, and several large diamond rings, giving her a royal and regal appearance for the festive occasion.
