Akansha Ranjan Kapoor (Actor)
Akansha Ranjan Kapoor is a busy woman. She delivered striking performances in Guilty (2020) and Monica, O My Darling (2022), brought a sense of warmth to Dr. Gargi in Gram Chikitsalay (2025), and now has a special appearance in the upcoming Netflix legal drama Ikka. It’s no surprise then that in her downtime she prefers to dress easy, laid-back and cool.
Off-duty Style
Before and after work, the actor can be spotted in baggy tracks and a big tee. “I have 10 printed, oversized T-shirts,” she says.
Walking on Sunshine
“I love wearing my [Nike] Jordans, but I get too lazy in Mumbai to wear socks with shoes,” she admits. “I wear a pair of heeled slippers all the time. It gives me height and [fixes] my posture.”
Tailored to the T
“I’m not big on very expensive, branded stuff,” she says. The most treasured items in her closet are the ones that fit her best.
All That Glitters
Kapoor loves gold jewellery, and a Tiffany & Co. necklace is part of her daily stack; she even wore it on Gram Chikitsalay. She has recently started wearing her mother’s old watch as well.
Samyuktha (Actor)
Samyuktha has made her mark across Malayalam, Tamil and Telugu cinema, with notable roles in Bheemla Nayak (2022), Kaduva (2022) and the thriller Virupaksha (2023). Off screen, her style is intentional.
Capsule Fashion
The actor rotates between a set of four to five outfits that she usually wears for regular film shoots in Hyderabad.
Keeping it Simple
She explains, “My go-to footwear is usually slip-ons or sandals with small heels.”
An Heirloom
Her mother and grandmother’s wedding sari is the piece she’s saving to wear on a “really special occasion.”
Go Big or Go Home
“I usually wear my solitaires and my health tracking device,” she says.
Saumya Tandon (Actor)
Saumya Tandon’s personal style is — graceful and feminine — a lot like her character (Akshaye Khanna’s wife) Ulfat, in Dhurandhar 2. From Jab We Met (2007) to hosting Dance India Dance, starring in the TV show Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain!, and currently filming Yeh Prem Mol Liya alongside Ayushmann Khurrana and Sharvari Wagh, she’s anything but predictable.
Sole Mate
“My go-to shoes are comfortable ballerinas,” says Tandon. The actor prefers to buy from Japanese brands and stock them in as many colours as possible.
Treasured Trousseau
The most treasured piece in Tandon’s wardrobe has to be one of her wedding outfits from Jade by MK. “A lot of thought went into it,” she says.
At Home
When she’s not facing the camera, she wears loose shirts and jackets, high-waisted trousers, and crop tops. The actor is big on linens and cotton.
The Finishing Touch
“I’m not good at accesorising,” admits Tandon. She sticks to classic watches and minimal earrings, occasionally considering something more outlandish with traditional ensembles.
Niharika Jain (Creator-Entrepreneur)
The content creator is known for her beauty and style recommendations, eagerly awaited by her 828K followers on Instagram. She’s inspired by the greats, she says — Rekha, Nina Dobrev and of course, the character of Rachel Green from Friends (1994). With her own jewellery brand, Dumroo, she prefers pieces that feel authentic to herself.
Comfort First
What does a content creator and entrepreneur wear to work? “Honestly? Pajama sets,” Jain admits.
On Pointe
“Ballet flats are my absolute go to,” she says. Otherwise, she’s in classic white sneakers and nude heels.
India Modern
Her saris are, without a doubt, the most treasured pieces in her wardrobe. “Each one carries a memory,” she says.
Stack it Up
Jain loves delicate rings, small hoops or studs, and sometimes a pair of statement earrings.

Saumya Tandon
A Coach bag featuring motifs by one of her favourite artists and a handcrafted denim bag by Marc Jacobs that she bought in Japan are her go-to picks.
Niharika Jain
Structured, medium-sized totes in neutral tones are what Jain reaches for, and functionality comes first.
