Bollywood's style tips for work!
Hindi movies aren't only about 'entertainment, entertainment, entertainment.'
Believe it or not, one can learn a lot from them as well.
Like, um, how to dress for office?
While most of us have a hard time finishing their laundry or finding ironed clothes, characters in movies are always spic and span with not a hair out of place.
We noted down some pointers for you. Here goes:
Deepika Padukone, Piku
No fuss yet blending ethnic and edgy, DP's workaholic Bengali architect prefers clothes that are both relaxed and refined.
Katrina Kaif, Race
Bollywood secretary spells sexy since time immemorial. Katrina Kaif and her wardrobe of low-cut blouses and pencil skirts do their bit to keep the tradition alive.
Preity Zinta, Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna
Nothing odd about a fashion editor going all out with her work wear. PZ flaunts her KANK advantage in kitschy designer clothing.
Priyanka Chopra, Dostana

Alia Bhatt, 2 States

Aamir Khan, Ghajini

Ayushmann Khurrana and Sonam Kapoor, Bewakoofiyan
Hard to tell if this spiffy duo has stepped out of a ramp or salon that's a tad too glossy for regular corporate types. But if there's one thing silver screen affords its stars in abundance -- it's vanity.
Ranbir Kapoor, Rocket Singh: Salesman of the Year
Classic executive wardrobe of crisp shirts, striped ties and natty trousers is just the sort of sharp appearance RK Jr's ingenious personality could do justice to.
Chitrangda Singh, Inkaar
Chitrangada Singh's ambitious ad executive in Inkaar channels her inner Demi Moore to raise the mercury of boardroom meetings in her sleek, scorching hot formals.
