So to help you out here we make a list of the top 7 Bollywood theme party outfits for men for parties and weddings.
1. Salman Khan – (Joote do paise lo)
Hum Aapke Hai Kaun have been a cult movie of Indian Cinema. Even after so many years, you don’t mind going back to with family when it is on TV. Arguably one of the best movie that defines the Indian wedding culture in a most entertaining and aesthetic manner. Hence over the years the song, the dresses, and the fun elements of the movie have been integral parts of our own Sangeet and Mehendi Ceremonies. The Joote Do Paise lo song is one of the iconic songs in the film. It is a fun song that depicts the fun banter between the bride and groom side pretty well. Salmans Brown yellowish waistcoat with print on 1 side, on a white shirt with Brown yellowish trousers simply look dashing. The party outfit is easy to adapt and will look fresh and attractive for Bollywood theme functions.
2. Ranbir Kapoor (Chana Mereya)
Karan Johar’s movies in many ways inspired the fashion sense of almost a generation. With ‘Ae Dil hai Mushkil’ he has redefined the fashion for millennials as well. Anushka’s Kohler eyes, Lucknowie style with leather jackets made men and women gush. Aishwarya’s sophisticated elegance did full justice to her beauty and the character, Shaba the poet she was playing. But the outfit we are talking about here is the Ranbir’s sherwani from Chana Mereya. Off-white Lucknowi sherwani with gold embellishment coupled with intricate designs and Black Turbon with brocade borders. Lower is a full black colour salwar giving him the complete traditional look that will be remembered for ages. This Bollywood sherwani is a must-have in your wedding wardrobe.
3. Amitabh Bachchan (70s look)
The 70s was the Era of Angry young man. A tall dark handsome guy fighting with the system, corruption, smugglers etc. The aura of Big B in those days was so big that for months housefull board could not be removed. There were times when Simultaneously multiple films of his were running which is impossible today. His stardom defined the style for years to come. His trademark hairstyle and boot-cut trousers were a thing in those days. An elegant-looking suit with boot-cut trousers of Big B can be easily replicated today as well. It will give you a quintessential retro look that is stylish and also makes you stand out at an event. Some of these have also inspired Yash’s look in KGF.
4. Shahid Kapoor (Nagada Nagada)
Jab we met was all about Kareena. The bubbly character just overshadowed everything in the film including Shahid’s genuine performance and low-key demeanor which is quite a beautiful contrast to characters like Kabir Singh or Tommy Singh in Udta Punjab. The flamboyant Shahid in the movie only came out in the dance numbers Mauja hi mauja and Nagada Nagala. The black kurta pajama of Shahid Kapoor can serve a simple, traditional, and appealing look when you dance in functions like sangeet, Haldi, and mehendi.
5. Aamir Khan (Papa Kehte hai)
With ‘Qayamat se Qayamat Tak’ Aamir Khan became an overnight star. The female audience of the country was gushing over the looks of the young sensation and men were following his style. Although dressing sense is not one of the fortes of Mr. Perfectionist in real life he leaves no stone unturned to look the character in his roles. His most famous Papa Kehte Hai is still a song that every son dedicates to his father growing up. The easy breezy look of Aamir in the song with a black waistcoat and loose tie on a white shirt and black trousers is quite easy to emulate. Also perfect mix of casual and formal on any occasion cannot go wrong.
6 Jeetendra (Iconic White suit and white shoes)
The Jumping Jack of Bollywood Jeetendra in the 70s and the 80s made white trousers with white shoes the style of his own. All their songs and movies of him during the time were superhit. A white suit and white shoes can be a refreshing retro Bollywood pick for you if you want to try something different yet stylish.
6. Shahrukh Khan (Mehendi lagake rakhna)
As far as style is concerned King of Romance is also king of style. His black tuxedos and suits are quite a thing at award nights and events. But the Bollywood dress that is iconic yet stylish of SRK, is the ‘Mehendi lagake rakhna’ White Pathani with a traditional half jacket and Mojdi from the DDLJ. The memorable attire is easy to replicate and not much of a pain to pockets.
7. Ranbir Kapoor (Kabira)
The glimpse of crying Ranbir Kapoor as Bunny walks out of the wedding is entrenched in every cinemagoer’s memory. The black sherwani and white pajamas surely owe Ranbir Kapoor a lot for making them famous first in the song Jogi Mahi (Bachna Ae Haseeno) and then in Kabira (Ye Jawani hai Deewani).
