01Ananya Panday on Hydration, Radiance, and the Power of Skincare

In an exclusive pre-show interview, Ananya Panday talked about investing her time in skin care, saying "Earlier I used to be very lazy about taking my makeup off properly, washing my face every night or doing my nighttime skin care routine. And if I was going to the set, I'd be like, 'I don't have to do my own beauty routine before I go, and I don't have to put on sunscreen,' But over time, I've realised the importance of actually doing it for the long run." She also shared her love for the Lakmē' 9 to 5 Hya-Matte Foundation, which complemented her look for the evening. "What I love about the Hya-Matte Foundation is that it's very hydrating because it has Hyaluronic Acid in it and it feels like my skin—a second layer of my skin. It leaves a velvety matte foundation on my skin that is very in right now—that velvety finish," she explained. The benefits of Hyaluronic Acid could be seen with her radiant, glowing skin—the perfect match for the fierce, confident energy of the Silver Collar collection. What really makes this collaboration stand out is the thought behind it. Drawing inspiration from both Indian craftsmanship and global silhouettes, the collection showcased the timeless appeal of Indian design with a fresh, contemporary twist. Khanna's designs bring the best of both worlds together in a way that feels both rooted and forward-thinking. "Tonight is literally about being beautiful from within and from outside," Khanna shared, capturing the essence of the evening. And it wasn't just about what the models wore, but how they wore it—owning their individuality and confidence. Silver Collar isn't just about looking good; it's about feeling good too. Khanna's designs celebrate women who make bold choices, embrace their uniqueness, and carry themselves with both strength and grace. Anamika Khanna is revolutionising the way we think about power dressing. With AK

OK, she’s empowering women to embrace their boldness, grace, and individuality in a world where confidence is the best accessory.
