Sajal Aly opted to take a risk with her wardrobe on the red carpet of the What’s Love Got To Do With It? premiere. In an East meets West fusion, she wore a crop top over gharara pants and tied in the outfit with a well fitted black blazer and maroon bangles. She also chose to go with a bold red lip and smokey eye makeup.

However, Sawart Gilani and Anoushey Ashraf were quick to step in and defend Aly.
