New Delhi: Sonam Kapoor delivered an emotional tribute to fashion designer Rohit Bal throughout the Blenders Pride X FDCI Fashion Tour 2025 in Gurugram, which honoured the legacy of his deceased seven months ago. Rohit Bal died in November 2024 at the age of 63 after making significant achievements in Indian fashion.
Multiple social media video clips showed Sonam Kapoor showing strong emotions as she appeared on the runway and frequently becoming tearful. The tribute started with Sonam beginning her appearance by folding her hands while wearing an eye-catching combination of an ivory jacket and a long white gown that embodied the tribute’s essence.
At the event, Sonam addressed ANI to deliver her appreciation for representing the “last show,” according to Bal’s definition. She expressed extreme happiness at Gudda’s event (Rohit Bal). Many designers have worn his designs, and I am fortunate to have been selected as his design client multiple times. Such an opportunity to participate in what is his farewell performance brings him pure joy—the celebration of heritage, the celebration of craftsmanship. The entire event aims to honour all delightful aspects of life. That was him. I state similarly that I adore wearing garments the precise way I describe them.
Sonam described her privilege on Instagram as walking in honour of the legendary Rohit Bal during the @fdciofficial x @blenderspridefashiontour. Indian fashion developed into its current form due to his artistic talent and revolutionary concepts, which transcended all measurement standards. Walking on that runway enabled me to experience emotional reverence and inspirational admiration because he was and always will remain a fashion icon.
Additional important members of the fashion world participated in the event. Rohit Bal was honoured by his peers and young talent through the runway participation of filmmaker Madhur Bhandarkar, fashion designer JJ Valaya, and actors Eesha Gupta, Rahul Dev, and Mughda Godse at the fashion event.
Fans from the Indian fashion world deeply honour Rohit Bal because of his enduring history as a visionary designer. His exceptional designs and dedication to handwork created a permanent impression on the fashion industry. All Blenders Pride X FDCI Fashion Tour attendees united their emotions to honour Bal’s works, as he inspired the next wave of designers.
Sonam Kapoor’s tribute during this prestigious occasion demonstrates how much Rohit Bal influenced Indian fashion because of his work. The fashion industry honours his historical accomplishments and long-lasting impact during a mourning period.
