The fashion world’s biggest night is just hours away, and this year, the Met Gala promises to be especially memorable for India. The 2025 edition is shaping up to be a landmark moment, with a star-studded Indian presence turning heads in New York City. While Indian celebs have graced the Met carpet before, this time, the lineup feels historic.
With Bollywood royalty, Punjabi powerhouses, and fashion insiders all in the mix, here’s a look at the seven Indian stars gearing up to dazzle at the Met Gala.
Shah Rukh Khan
Yes, it’s really happening. King Khan is finally making his Met Gala debut, and it’s already iconic. Shah Rukh will be the first-ever Indian male actor to attend the event, and he’s set to wear custom Sabyasachi couture. Spotted arriving in NYC with manager Pooja Dadlani, SRK’s entry into the Met universe is one for the history books and fans are counting down the seconds to see what he wears.
Kiara Advani
The glowing mom-to-be is all set to turn the Met Gala into her own runway moment. Kiara, who is expecting her first child with actor Sidharth Malhotra, teased her official debut with a sneak peek on social media—complete with the Met booklet and a chic NYC table setup. Her calm-before-the-storm vibe has us excited for what’s sure to be a stunning maternity fashion moment.
Diljit Dosanjh
Can you hear it already? “Punjabi aa gye oye!” Diljit is bringing his signature swagger and desi charm to the Met steps. The singer-actor is set to make his grand debut, and he’s already shared a behind-the-scenes robe shot on social media. It’s safe to say Diljit’s going to bring something fresh, loud, and unapologetically cool to the carpet.
Priyanka Chopra Jonas
Priyanka’s fifth Met Gala appearance is more than just another fashion outing - it feels personal. Since her unforgettable debut in that Ralph Lauren trench gown back in 2017, she’s been a Met favourite. This year, she’s teaming up with Olivier Rousteing of Balmain and adding sparkle with Bvlgari jewels. And yes, the idea of her and Shah Rukh under the same roof has fans buzzing.
Natasha Poonawalla
The queen of couture may or may not walk the carpet, but fashion watchers have already clocked her in New York. Natasha, known for her bold Met Gala looks, was recently seen in a dramatic Rahul Mishra ensemble. While her 2018 debut in a Prabal Gurung graffiti gown is still talked about, we’re hoping she returns with something even more over-the-top.
Isha Ambani
A Met Gala regular, Isha Ambani always brings grace and grandeur to the carpet. Her 2024 Rahul Mishra look, a detailed, time-intensive couture masterpiece, set the bar high. Known for blending Indian craftsmanship with global fashion sensibilities, Isha’s 2025 appearance is sure to be another standout.
Mona Patel
After blowing everyone away in 2024 with her futuristic Iris van Herpen butterfly gown, philanthropist and entrepreneur Mona Patel is rumoured to return this year. Her blend of fashion and science turned heads last time, and if she shows up again, it’s bound to be another avant-garde moment worth remembering.
