Genelia D’souza’s yellow chiffon attire is the go-to summer sari if you are all game for brights. Her contemporary yet traditional look with cut sleeves blouse gave us major style goals. Ditching the usual accessory earrings, she went for a golden statement neckpiece to volumise her look with a tiny bindi.
