Mumbai, Dec 14 (IANS) Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt looked ethereal in a white saree as she attended the centenary celebrations of the late Indian cinema legend Raj Kapoor in Mumbai on Friday.


Alia took to her Instagram, where she dropped a string of pictures looking gorgeous in a white saree with pastel hued flowers and green leaves prints. She completed her look with a soft pearl choker and dewy makeup. For the hair, she chose to keep her hair open.


The actress captioned it, “mud mud ke na dekh.”


The song “Mud mud ke na dekh” is from the 1955 comedy-drama film directed and produced by Raj Kapoor. The film stars Nargis, Nadira, and Raj Kapoor. The number 420 refers to Section 420 of the Indian Penal Code, which prescribes the punishment for the offence of fraud; hence, "Mr. 420" is a derogatory term for a fraud.


The film centers on Raj Kapoor, a poor but educated orphan who comes to Bombay with dreams of success. His character is influenced by Charlie Chaplin's "little tramp", much like Raj Kapoor's character in his 1951 “Awaara”.


On Friday, the entire Kapoor family, the first film dynasty of Hindi cinema, hosted the event as they celebrated the excellence of the family’s patriarch.
