YASH DAASGUPTAA IN ‘RETRO'
The Sentimentaaal star slipped into a Sood tuxedo in navy blue and teamed it with a contrasting pair of flared trousers in golden beige. The tie in a geometric pattern, the chunky watch and the shades added to the cool of the look. “In general, I like wearing retro styles. They are comfy. Nowadays, the trend is to wear baggy styles and retro has that feel. I don’t like clothes that are too fitted. The combination of blue and beige that I wore today, I loved it. It’s different because normally we like to go for monotones,” said Yash. On t2’s 17th birthday, Yash promised a shoot-themed on ‘Bold is gold’ for our big 18th bash when t2 would step into adulthood!

NUSSRAT JAHAN IN ‘BLING'
Nussrat Jahan channelled the glam in Suravika. S separates. The wine outfit was complemented by a bit of shimmer on the eyes, carefree hair and a fresh pout. “What never goes out of fashion is a shiny disco ball. I love the texture. Shimmer and shine doesn’t have to be restricted to a night look is what I feel. You can wear bling whenever because it makes you happy,” said Nussrat. The actress wished the t2 team the very best! “I felt great shooting for t2 today and it is turning 17. I have seen t2 grow right in front of my eyes and I want to see it soar higher. All the best!” smiled the beautiful actress who also starred in and produced Sentimentaaal recently, with Yash Daasguptaa.

PAOLI DAM IN ‘RED'
Paoli Dam looked stunning in a red Benarasi, her pick for the t2 party shoot! “You won’t see people in a sari at a lounge. I love wearing saris for any occasion and anywhere and you do stand out. It looks good. I wanted to make the shoot a little more special and wanted it to stand out and be unique, to honour my long relationship with t2. I will remember this,” smiled the actress known for her versatile acting prowess. The sari was from Paoli’s collection and an absolute favourite of hers. “I had picked it up from Delhi. This is one of my favourite Benarasis, because the work you see is traditional yet contemporary. I like dainty motifs,” she smiled. The rich red was in sync with the mood of the celebration. “I have always loved red! It is my favourite. Maybe because it is the colour of love and passion,” she said. Wishing t2 a very happy birthday, Paoli said: “Stay as crazy, lovely and genuine. I love you all and happy birthday!” We love you too!

RIDHIMA GHOSH IN ‘ARABIAN NIGHTS'
Actor Ridhima Ghosh slipped into a Middle Eastern ensemble that was just perfect for an Arabian Nights party, a theme that t2 had done more than a decade ago. The mood board was simple — rich black and gold that brought out the theme effortlessly. Black co-ords with gold and mirrorwork embroidery were paired with a stunning tasselled overlay. Soft curls, kohled eyes, lots of highlighter and an interesting layered maangtika made Ridhima look like a queen! When you think of Arabian-themed fashion, gold accessories dominate the mood board. So Ridhima opted for chunky accessories from head to toe (well, almost!) for that Dubai Bling feels. “This was something new I tried! I have never dressed up like this before as I am personally a very casual dresser but I love trying out different things with you guys so it was fun. I had not attended the Arabian Nights-themed party as my first t2 party was retro-themed. The shoot was also special because this was my first photoshoot post being a mother,” said the glowing new mom.
SHAHEB BHATTACHERJEE IN ‘NEON'
Vibrant, cool and fun sum up the neon fashion trend that is in sync with actor Shaheb Bhattacherjee’s personality too! Always ready to experiment and stand out, Shaheb has always put in that extra effort to rock a t2 party theme to the T! This time for the #throwbackt2party theme special birthday shoot, the actor worked the neon theme, something he had opted for in 2020 when we had bling and neon as dual themes. Channelling a neon yellow suit with a turquoise blue printed shirt, and matchy pocket square, Shaheb looked party-ready in white kicks and funky shades. For someone who loves accessories, Shaheb donned layered chains and wrist cuffs. “I have always taken t2 anniversary party very seriously, be it neon, OTT theme that was last year where I came dressed as a Money Heist character... for the neon look I recall in 2020 I got the yellow suit made by a designer friend of mine, Rohan Mitra, and I feel it was very interesting that I had thought of this because few years later I saw Ranveer Singh wearing the same colour suit with the same combination! So I relived the whole neon party while I was shooting this time and it did make me nostalgic. The amount of fun we have at a t2 party with friends from the industry is insane! The shoot was a lot of fun with positive energy and vibe, like it’s always with t2!” said Shaheb.
