MUMBAI: There’s something incredibly refreshing about an actor who doesn’t leave their character behind on set. With her latest romantic comedy, Bhool Chuk Maaf, Wamiqa Gabbi isn’t just playing a girl named Titli; she’s living her. Across cities, red carpets, and social media feeds, Wamiqa has transformed what could have been a routine press tour into a fluttering extension of the story itself.
Each look she’s worn during promotions has been more than just fashion. It’s been storytelling. Every outfit feels like a glimpse into who Titli is; a girl full of light, joy, quiet reflection, and occasional drama. Wamiqa didn’t just style herself for a role. She extended the role into the world.
Let’s take a closer look at the way she’s brought Titli to life, one outfit at a time:
The Green Saree with Butterflies in Her Hair
This was the one that started it all, a vibrant parrot-green silk organza saree paired with a deep red blouse. While the silhouette was elegant and traditional, it was the hair that told a story. Tiny pastel butterflies delicately placed through her braid gave the look a dreamy, fairytale-like quality. No flashy jewelry, no dramatic makeup, just a soft, sincere nod to the character she was introducing to the world.

“Haldi Ka Rang, Titli Ki Aankhon Se”
Bright, breezy, and full of sunshine, this yellow co-ord set made her feel like Titli in her happiest mood. Wamiqa wore a V-waist pleated skirt with a strappy blouse, topped with a sheer cape covered in butterfly prints. She captioned it: “Haldi ka colour hai yellow, Titli boli hello-hello.” It felt like summer bottled into an outfit; cheerful, confident, and completely herself.

The Black Saree That Brought the Butterflies Out at Night
A bold, dramatic shift, this shimmering black saree featured bronze butterfly embroidery across the drape. Glamorous, moody, and full of depth, it showed us a different side of Titli. This wasn’t just sunshine and softness, this was Titli after dark, mysterious and magnetic.

Soft Blush, Subtle Wings
In a quieter moment, Wamiqa chose a blush pink saree paired with butterfly earrings and a delicate hairpin. There were no loud prints or dramatic flourishes, just a sense of softness, vulnerability, and stillness. This look didn’t scream for attention. It just stayed with you.

The Lehenga That Fluttered
Possibly the most literal tribute to Titli; a pastel pink lehenga covered in bright yellow butterfly prints. Playful, romantic, and full of movement, it was the ultimate visual metaphor for a character who’s always in flight, always evolving. With this look, Wamiqa didn’t just wear the character, she became her.

We’ve seen many promotional fashion moments over the years, but few have felt this personal. What Wamiqa Gabbi did with her Titli-style diaries wasn’t just about looking good, it was about carrying a character from fiction into the real world. With intentional styling and emotional continuity, she reminded us that sometimes, the most memorable performances continue long after the cameras stop rolling.
And in Wamiqa’s case, they take flight, just like Titli.
