Krithi Shetty at SR Shopping Mall Opening Bhimavaram

Tollywood’s beloved young actress Krithi Shetty graced the grand opening of SR Shopping Mall in Bhimavaram in a look that was nothing short of stunning — a richly woven olive green Kanjivaram silk saree with a bold contrast purple blouse and diamond jewellery that turned the inauguration into a full-blown fashion event. Caramel-highlighted waves, dewy glowing skin, and a classic red bindi completed a look that was simultaneously traditional, contemporary, and deeply photogenic.

Olive Green Kanjivaram Silk with Gold Butti and Purple Border Saree

The centrepiece of Krithi Shetty’s look was a gorgeous olive-moss green Kanjivaram silk saree — one of the most distinctive and unusual colour choices in traditional South Indian silk saree fashion. The saree featured scattered gold butti (small woven motifs) throughout the fabric body, and a rich dark purple woven border and pallu — the classic Kanjivaram two-colour contrast border technique that is one of the hallmarks of authentic Kanjivaram weaving. The combination of olive green and deep purple is a daring and sophisticated colour pairing, rooted in traditional Kanjivaram aesthetics while feeling thoroughly contemporary and fashion-forward.

Deep Purple Puff Sleeve with Zari Border Blouse

The styling masterstroke of this look was the deep plum-purple contrast blouse — a short puff-sleeve design in a lustrous purple silk, with a matching purple zari geometric border running along the sleeve cuffs. The puff-sleeve silhouette is currently one of the biggest trends in South Indian blouse design, lending the look a soft, vintage-inspired charm that contrasts beautifully with the structured weave of the Kanjivaram saree. The purple of the blouse perfectly echoed the purple border of the saree, creating a seamlessly intentional colour story across the entire outfit.

Diamond Choker, Hip Belt, and Cascade Earrings Jewellery

The jewellery for this look was extraordinary — a coordinated diamond ensemble that elevated the Kanjivaram saree into near-bridal territory. The standout piece was a stunning diamond and polki choker necklace featuring a broad floral and leaf motif set in white gold or silver, sitting beautifully against the purple blouse neckline in a rich, luminous contrast. Equally impressive was a diamond hip belt or waistband — a wide floral diamond motif band worn across the saree at waist level — one of the most distinctive and eye-catching accessory choices possible with a silk saree, rarely seen outside bridal or editorial contexts and a statement of bold, confident styling. Gold cascade or chandelier earrings featuring teardrop-shaped polished stone drops completed the jewellery look, adding movement and elegance.

Hair and Makeup: Caramel Waves and Luminous Glow

Krithi Shetty’s hair — her signature warm dark brown with beautiful caramel and honey highlights — was left open in voluminous, loose waves cascading over one shoulder, the highlighted ends catching the mall’s golden event lighting with a gorgeous warm shimmer. Her makeup was dewy and luminous: cleanly defined arched brows, a subtle soft eye with lash emphasis, glowing glass-skin finish, a classic maroon-red bindi, and a soft warm nude-mauve lip that let her natural features breathe beautifully in the photographs.

Style Verdict

Krithi Shetty’s olive green Kanjivaram saree with purple contrast blouse and diamond jewellery at the SR Shopping Mall grand opening in Bhimavaram is a masterclass in how to wear a traditional silk saree with genuine fashion intelligence. The olive-purple colour pairing, puff-sleeve blouse, diamond hip belt, and flowing caramel-highlighted waves come together for a look that is simultaneously Kanjivaram-traditional and thoroughly, boldly modern. The diamond waistband in particular is the kind of accessory choice that separates a beautiful saree look from a truly memorable one. SR Shopping Mall in Bhimavaram could not have asked for a more stunning face for their grand opening — and Krithi Shetty delivered in every sense.
