Rani Mukerji is very selective of the public appearances she makes. The actor is happy living her life away from the glitter and glamour of Bollywood’s paparazzi. However, she made a rare stop at her best
friend, choreographer Vaibhavi Merchant’s, birthday party that took place in Mumbai recently.
No matter the season or festival, florals are probably the only pattern that will never go out of style.
And Rani Mukerji embraced it wholeheartedly for her recent outing. The actor wore the Violetta Midi Dress by ERDEM, which is part of their Pre-Fall 2024 collection. The A-line midi dress has massive red floral patterns over the midnight-hue apparel. With the scooped neckline, the dress is chic and dignified, but it comes with a hefty price tag – around Rs 138,629. It has a sleeveless silhouette, with a fitted bodice, a cinched waistline, and neatly pressed pleats to the side.

Rani Mukerji arrived at the party with birthday girl Vaibhavi Merchant, and the two best friends entered the venue, walking hand-in-hand.
The actor paired her outfit with a pair of black peep-toe Gucci heels and a mini black top-handle bag. She accessorised with a few diamonds. She wore a dainty diamond choker with a pair of diamond studs and a diamond ring that was blinding.

For the unversed, Vaibhavi Merchant recently received her second National Film Award for Best Choreography for the song Dhindora Baje Re from Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani. Interestingly, her National Award in the same category was for Dholi Taro Dhol Baaje in 1999.
Other celebrities who attended Vaibhavi Merchant’s birthday party included Karan Johar, Shilpa Shetty, Arjun Kapoor and Anil Kapoor. Other guests who attended the party to celebrate the choreographer’s special day include filmmaker Ashutosh Gowariker and his wife, Sunita Gowariker, along with musician Shekhar Ravjiani, Apoorva Mehta and Bijal Mehta.
