Mahira Khan debuts baby bump in a saree at TIFF 2026
For her TIFF appearance, Mahira draped a handcrafted saree by Aafrinish By Niazi that was anything but minimal. The burgundy six-yard was heavily decked up with an intricate mix of paisley and floral-inspired patterns, giving the traditional silhouette an ornate, handcrafted character.
The standout element was the deep teal-blue pallu, which broke up the burgundy base with an exquisite contrast. It was finished with ornate borders and tassel details that added maximalism to the drape.

Her accessories were equally over-the-top, featuring chunky gold jhumkas, a textured teal clutch that picked up the colour of the pallu and statement rings that added a hint of sparkle.
The beauty look complemented the elaborate outfit without overpowering it. Mahira opted for a dewy base, defined eyes, rosy cheeks and a highlighted glow, finishing the look with a bright lip. For her hair, she went for a middle-parted braided hairstyle, with soft curls framing the front of her face.
