KKN Gurugram Desk | Mumbai witnessed a star-studded night as Sonam Kapoor Ahuja celebrated her 40th birthday with an extravagant private party attended by some of the biggest names in Bollywood. Known for her impeccable fashion sense, Sonam’s birthday was no less than a red-carpet affair. However, it was actress Bhumi Pednekar who drew massive attention — not only for her striking white ensemble but also for carrying a luxury bag worth ₹5.77 lakh.
The event was held at a high-end venue in Mumbai and soon became the most-talked-about Bollywood gathering of the week.
Arriving in a chic white mini dress, Bhumi Pednekar posed gracefully for paparazzi outside the party venue. She paired the outfit with black pumps and a silver pouch-style bag, which later became the center of social media buzz.
As per reports by The Free Press Journal, the silver clutch is a designer piece from Italian luxury label Loro Piana, known for its craftsmanship and minimalistic elegance. The bag reportedly costs ₹5,77,050, making it one of the most expensive fashion items spotted at the event.
Fashion experts noted: “Bhumi’s look combined simplicity with statement — a monochrome palette elevated by a single piece of luxury.”
The guest list was a who’s who of Bollywood, including:
Karan Johar
Kareena Kapoor Khan
Karishma Kapoor
Saif Ali Khan
Swara Bhasker
Janhvi Kapoor
Khushi Kapoor
Arjun Kapoor
Masaba Gupta
Vedang Raina
The Kapoor family, naturally, was present in full strength. The paparazzi were kept busy as celebrities arrived in designer outfits, showcasing a mix of luxury fashion, minimal glam, and classic style.
Social media was flooded with clips and photographs from the venue, with Bhumi’s designer clutch and Sonam’s all-black birthday look going viral instantly.
Turning 40 is a milestone, and for someone like Sonam Kapoor, who is often dubbed Bollywood’s original fashionista, it called for a celebration worthy of her legacy. From walking international red carpets to curating her own fashion brand, Sonam has carved a niche that transcends cinema.
The actress chose to keep her birthday celebration exclusive, attended only by close friends and family, but made sure the event exuded class, luxury, and a bit of old-world glamour.
Bhumi Pednekar, despite mixed reviews in her latest OTT outing, managed to trend on social media for her stylish appearance and luxury accessory. Fans and fashion pages across Instagram and Twitter circulated zoomed-in photos of her silver clutch, with captions highlighting the price tag and brand.
One user wrote:
“When your bag costs more than a car, you know you’ve arrived at the party right.”
Another fashion influencer commented:
“Bhumi understood the assignment — elegance, glam, and a luxury bag that says it all.”
The trend #BhumiPednekar was among the top 10 hashtags on X (formerly Twitter) for nearly 24 hours after the party.
The silver pouch carried by Bhumi belongs to Loro Piana, a luxury fashion house based in Italy, known for using the rarest cashmere and the finest leathers. Their accessories are not just fashion statements but investments, with a clientele that includes royalty, celebrities, and elite business figures.
This particular clutch is known for:
Its hand-stitched Italian craftsmanship
Minimalist yet sophisticated finish
Rarity, as only limited pieces are produced globally
According to luxury fashion blogs, the same model has been spotted on European red carpets but is rarely seen in India, which makes Bhumi’s choice even more noteworthy.
On the professional front, Bhumi Pednekar was recently seen in Netflix’s original series The Royals. Despite high expectations and a big-budget ensemble, the show received mixed-to-negative reviews, especially for Bhumi’s performance.
She starred opposite Ishaan Khatter, alongside veterans like:
Zeenat Aman
Milind Soman
Chunky Pandey
Sakshi Tanwar
While the show initially trended on the platform, critics noted a lack of character depth and inconsistent storytelling. Social media reactions were divided — some praised the concept, others questioned the execution.
While Bhumi’s fashion sense was widely applauded, some netizens pointed out the contrast between her on-screen performance and off-screen luxury choices.
One viral comment read:
“Wish she put as much effort into acting as she does into accessorizing.”
However, many others defended the actress, emphasizing that fashion is a form of self-expression, and it’s unfair to link personal style with professional output.
Events like Sonam Kapoor’s birthday are no longer just private celebrations — they are public branding opportunities for celebrities. From the outfits they wear to the accessories they carry, every detail is dissected and often amplified into trends and headlines.
In 2025, with Instagram Reels, fashion blogs, and rapid viral culture, celebrity appearances are carefully curated. Bhumi Pednekar’s choice to highlight a global luxury brand aligns with her evolving image as a style-forward celebrity, regardless of box office trends.
Sonam Kapoor’s 40th birthday bash was everything fans expected — elegant, exclusive, and star-studded. Yet, it was Bhumi Pednekar’s ₹5.77 lakh designer bag that unexpectedly became the star of the evening.
While debates about luxury spending, fashion branding, and celebrity image continue, one thing remains clear — Bollywood’s relationship with high fashion is stronger than ever. And in this glamorous battlefield, sometimes, it’s the accessory that does all the talking.
