These celeb looks will inspire you to wear the good ol’ gajra

Gajras were a staple way to accessorise during the yesteryears. They made an important part of our mothers and grandmothers’ look and an easy way to differentiate between a festive or every day look. Not only did they act as a beautiful addition to an ensemble, they also made the look, fragrant! Gajras were the ultimate way to glam up an ensemble. No wonder our mothers and grandmothers scouted all around to find the right kind. But as time passed, gajras became passé and less cool. However, much like other trends in the world, gajras have now made momentous comeback. Don’t believe us? Here are some celeb looks as proof!

The new-age diva was spotted donning a traditional look with the on-going festive season. But the actor managed to weave in her signature modern style along with the desi-ness. For Ganesh Chaturti, the actress donned a gold polka dot saree and blouse. She wrapped her hair up in messy bun and wrapped in it a mogra gajra giving the otherwise western updo an Indian twist.
