Kanan Devi, in a pretty blue, gold-edged blouse with a nicely coordinated sari.  I love the quiet beauty of this picture. OK I really like Kanan Devi. Full stop.

Kanan Devi and KL Saigal in Parichay. Collared blouses, scalloped necks and boxy silhouettes were common in sari blouses in the 1940s.

I am not sure what’s going on here.  There is a bindi. A Spanish rose.  That khanjar. A polka dot skirt.  And a demure blouse – sort of – free of pallu.
