Almost three decades ago, the blockbuster film ‘Hum Aapke Hain Koun’, featuring Salman Khan and Madhuri Dixit, hit theaters, setting records and leaving a lasting impact on audiences worldwide. The movie not only inspired a book titled ’14 Songs, 2 Weddings & A Funeral’ in 2001 but also popularized the trend of grand Indian weddings characterized by large gatherings of family and friends. Alongside its cultural influence, the film also became a trendsetter in fashion, with Madhuri Dixit’s iconic style capturing the hearts of many girls growing up in the 90s.
One of the most memorable fashion moments from the movie was Madhuri Dixit’s extravagant purple saree from the song ‘Didi Tera Devar Deewana’, designed by renowned costume designer Anna Singh. Priced at a staggering ₹1.5 million upon its release, this saree not only made a bold fashion statement but also sparked conversations with its unique backless blouse and full sleeves.
