American reality TV sensations Kim Kardashian and Khloe Kardashian stole the spotlight at Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s grand wedding in Mumbai. The Kardashian sisters turned heads in exquisite outfits crafted by acclaimed Indian fashion designer Manish Malhotra, sharing numerous photos and videos of their glamorous looks on social media.

Khloe Kardashian showcased the lavish wedding celebrations through her Snapchat stories, providing her followers with an inside look at the opulent event. However, one of her comments sparked a flurry of reactions online. In a video, Khloe flaunted her stunning Manish Malhotra lehenga, referring to him as a “local designer.”

“You guys, how beautiful are my clothes?” Khloe said in the video. “They’re all so beautifully designed by a local designer. I’ll get you his name, but look at the details. Everything is so spectacular.”


She continued to praise the ensemble, saying, “I love this pop-pink number. The vibrancy, the detail, the intricacy of it—it’s to die for.”

Khloe also shared her thoughts on the elaborate attire, adding, “Okay, well! How do you take all this stuff off when you don’t have help? I didn’t think that through. Is this not insane?”

The video clip where Khloe referred to Manish Malhotra as a “local designer” quickly went viral, eliciting mixed reactions from the online community.

One user commented, “Did you all know Khloe Kardashian called Manish Malhotra ‘my local designer’? It must have been highlighted to her team, and then she changed it to ‘world-renowned’.”

Another said, “Khloe Kardashian saying her lehenga for the Ambani wedding is made by a ‘local designer’ is taking me out. Like, ma’am, do you even know?”

A third user remarked, “Khloe calling Manish ‘a local designer’ shows how little they know about India and how indifferent they are. This is why they don’t deserve the hype they’re getting just for attending the wedding.”

A fourth posted, “Did Khloe Kardashian just call Manish Malhotra a local designer?!”
