The ace couturier transformed his home into a scene straight out of a dream. Guests walking in were greeted by rich red blooms spilling across the space with roses, carnations, and anthuriums, creating an atmosphere of romance and festivity. Adding to the visual drama were upside-down candles suspended from the ceiling, illuminating the room with a soft, golden light.

Every corner was designed to dazzle, from candlelit tables overflowing with sweets and savouries to striking displays of traditional motifs done in Malhotra's signature modern style. But the true showstopper of the night was the towering five-tier chocolate cake, adorned with delicate berries that stood tall as the centrepiece.
Star-studded guest list
As always, Manish’s Diwali bash became the ultimate meeting point for fashion, film, and fabulousness.
