Alia Bhatt Meets Charles Leclerc

Alia Bhatt looked stunning in a breathtaking blue gown. The actress looked like a reincarnation of Cinderella in a fairytale-inspired look. She kept the minimal makeup and accessories and let her dress grab the eyeballs. She looked like nothing short of a dream. On the other hand, Charles Leclerc looked dapper in a black suit. He completed his royal look by keeping a clean-shaven look and messy hair. Like a true gentleman, the racer held the hand of another lady and climbed the stage. He tried to help Alia climb the stairs, but the actress was seen focusing more on her long gown, which was the highlight of her look.
