Sai Pallavi attended the world premiere of Ramayana: Rise of a Legend in Los Angeles on October 27, 2026, wearing a fuchsia pink saree with intricate embroidery. The actress, who plays Goddess Sita in the two-part epic, walked the red carpet at the David Geffen Theatre inside the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures.
The premiere served as an invite-only 3D screening ahead of the film’s theatrical release on November 5. Director Nitesh Tiwari, producer Namit Malhotra, and co-stars Ranbir Kapoor and Yash joined Pallavi at the event.
Details of the Saree Look
Pallavi’s saree featured golden zari work and dense silver and white embroidery along the borders and across the fabric. She draped it in a classic style, securing pleats on her shoulder instead of letting the pallu flow traditionally.
She paired the saree with a matching zari-embroidered blouse. On her right hand, she stacked multiple bangles, while her left hand carried her signature japa mala.
Studded earrings and rings added subtle sparkle. Her hair was centre-parted and blow-dried, framing her face. Mauve lipstick, soft pink blush, and understated eye makeup completed the monochromatic palette.
A red bindi remained a constant, adding a distinctly Indian detail to the international red carpet. The NDTV report noted that the golden zari work on the pink fabric contrasted sharply against the red carpet.
Cast and Premiere Moments
Ranbir Kapoor, who plays Lord Rama, wore a light silver-grey bandhgala with a repeating geometric motif, paired with dark grey trousers and black shoes. He styled his hair with a side parting and wore dark-tinted spectacles.
Yash, who portrays Ravana, arrived with his wife, Radhika Pandit. He wore an all-black ensemble consisting of velvet trousers, a short kurta with a deep V-neck, and a velvet blazer. His brooch was inspired by his character’s association with ten heads.
Pallavi signed autographs and posed for selfies with fans before walking the red carpet. Videos from the venue showed fans cheering for the cast, with some chanting ‘Ravana’ as Yash arrived.
