Recently, Janhvi Kapoor explained on Instagram why she chose to wear a lehenga inspired by the beautiful bird. She explained the initial inspiration behind the ensemble. "For the last leg of celebrations I knew I wanted to wear things that have a personal meaning. Since so many of my most special memories have been in Jamnagar, in complete solitude from the world surrounded by nature and beauty and wildlife, and people I care about so deeply- we decided to take inspiration from there."

Gushing about the importance of the location and how she wanted that feeling to blend in seamlessly with her outfit, she wrote, "Everywhere you look in Jamnagar, you will be greeted by a beautifully preening peacock or two, or three; or 10. Entering your lawns, fluttering their feathers, skipping across the roads, sometimes eating your breakfast. And so what started off as a peacock colored lehenga, ended up as a full on peacock feather skirt!! So in honor of DDC and PPC, in honor of the JAM WAGS- in honor of our Jam Mems ❤️ and most importantly in honor of Anant and @radhmerch1610 who always make us feel like their home is ours- a peacock lehenga executed to perfection by the genius @manishmalhotra05 and his most dedicated team of artists."

"M the details on this piece have left me speechless, thank you for making me feel special always. And special shout-out to @niharikavaggarwal for always giving in to my whims and fancies and annoying ideas 💕 sorry had to cut the can-can off before the dance 🥲" Janhvi concluded.
