Who Wore it Better? Dua Lipa's Orange Kurta Looks Like Akshay Kumar's and Desis Can't Unsee it

Albanian sensation Dua Lipa recently embarked on a mesmerising tour of India, ringing in the New Year with her family amid the enchanting landscapes of Rajasthan. The songstress didn’t just savour the moments; she generously shared the magic with her fans through a cascade of captivating photos on social media. Amidst the visual feast, one particular picture stole the spotlight, leaving Desis in splits and prompting Bollywood fans to connect the dots in record time.

It happened on the final day of 2023 when Dua graced her Instagram with a visual diary of her Rajasthan tour, extending heartfelt gratitude to those who made her vacation a delightful experience. A standout moment featured Dua donning a vibrant yellow and orange kurta adorned with the chant “Hare Ram Hare Krishna.” And guess what? It didn’t take long for movie buffs to draw parallels with Akshay Kumar’s iconic ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa’ look, where a similar costume played a pivotal role in the 2007 blockbuster.

The ensuing social media frenzy erupted when a user on the micro-blogging site ‘X’ juxtaposed the image of the ‘Levitating’ singer with the Bollywood actor. Desis, true to their expressive nature, couldn’t contain their excitement.

Yet, the memes didn’t stop there. Dua’s orange kurta continued to stir up humour across social media.

Having spent nearly a week in India, Dua’s exploration of the streets of Rajasthan became an internet sensation. Videos of the singer navigating the local scenes went viral, with netizens highlighting the initial lack of recognition from the locals.

However, as Dua expressed gratitude for concluding her year in India, Desis and her fans couldn’t contain their elation. Some took it a step further, playfully contrasting Dua’s Indian revelry with the traditional notion of Indians celebrating New Year abroad.
