On November 4, stylist Anaita Shroff Adajania gave a peek inside the designers’ Diwali party at their Mumbai home. Some Diwali parties are just parties. And then there’s an Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla Diwali party — which is basically a maximalist fever dream with better outfits and food.

Think vintage art everywhere, crystal chandeliers, red disco lights, a mirror ball, and a room full of well-dressed people dancing like nobody was watching. And in the middle of all that, Twinkle Khanna and Dimple Kapadia served an elegant mother-daughter fashion moment.
Twinkle went for serene, understated luxury — she wore a crisp ivory silk suit that looked effortless. The real star? Her sheer, heavily embroidered dupatta with delicate geometric chikankari work, draped perfectly over her shoulders. Add glowing skin, clean makeup, and minimal, oversized stud earrings, and she proved once again that monochrome white will never go out of style. If you’ve never been to Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla’s home, just imagine a living museum, but make it a party. Floor-to-ceiling art, opulent chandeliers, intimate little nooks for chit-chatting — but in disco mode for Diwali. Some pictures shared by Anaita from the designer duo’s Diwali party showed guests lounging in embellished jackets and mirror-work sherwanis, posing for photos; in others, the lights turned crimson, the mirror ball spun, and everyone danced. As Anaita put it in her caption, everything was ‘wonderfully extravagant, in the very best possible way’. She also summed up the vibe perfectly: “From the incredible food and drinks to the fun, mischief, laughter and lots of unabashed dancing, it always feels like one big family affair. And that’s exactly what made this Diwali party feel special. It was heritage meets high energy. It was family meets fashion. It was Diwali the way Diwali is supposed to feel — warm, loud, and full of love. And Twinkle and Dimple didn’t just show up. They understood the assignment. Elegant, effortless, and in sync — even when they were dressed in completely opposite palettes.
