If we can look up to our favorite actors for their fashion choices then Diwali decor inspiration from Bollywood movies should not be that far behind either.
While we live our monotonous lives, Bollywood characters live in a world of glamour where you see the stars shimmering through the screens reaching straight to your heart. It makes us wonder what it would feel like to wake up to a world so aesthetically pleasing and well-lit. Especially during festivals, all that glamour and the ridiculously pleasing decor makes us want to weep! Being a Bollywood buff doesn't always mean that you have recreate their dialogues or outfits alone. You can also try recreating these lavish and colossal sets and feel that main character energy.
Seldom we've found ourselves to be awestruck by the decor we see in a movie directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Karan Johar, or any quintessential Bollywood movie maker for that matter. They really are masters of making our culture look so rich and making festivals look so grand. The mirrors, the vibrant colors, the flowers, the jhumar, every single prop is so well thought out and bring the same reaction out of us each time we watch these movies. Bollywood really has cracked the code of making the most ordinary of places look like they're right out of a fairytale.
