Beauty in a teal saree
Manika looks breathtaking in this teal saree draped elegantly around her frame, paired with a matching blouse. Its beauty lies in the intricate traditional embroidery. Her styling with sparkling jewellery, including earrings, a necklace, and bangles, enhances the look.

Stealing hearts in red
Red is a classic, timeless hue that shines on Manika. Her saree is a stunning example of how a drape can shine with all its simplicity. The golden border and bootis make the six-yard look even more glamorous. Her look has been accessorised beautifully with a trendy choker.

Sheer elegance in blush pink
Miss India 2025 looks charming in the soft, blush pink number. Her drape is sheer, modern, and features delicate tonal embroidery. It’s hard not to notice the glow on her face. This saree has been styled minimally for her beauty to shine.

Glam golds and reds
Manika looks glamorous as ever in this red drape, which stands out for its glamorous gold-bronze work. While the saree is stylish, the blouse adds extra glitter and charm with its modern design. Manika’s tiered jhumkas and choker are breathtaking too.

South Indian style
She rightly captioned this one as, “Living my South Indian dream.” Manika looks elegant in the traditional red saree tied beautifully together with statement pieces of jewellery. The drape, the kamarbandh, and her flawless makeup leave a lasting impression.

Bandhani saree
Manika looks stunning in a maroon Bandhani saree adorned with a gotta-patti border. While her saree is a traditional affair, her blouse has been styled in a contemporary fashion. Her gold-toned jewellery makes a statement of its own.

Indian avatar
At the global event, Manika proudly represented the country in Indian ensembles like this beautifully embroidered jacket and metallic skirt, paired with a choli and dupatta. The Indian silhouettes and jewellery truly made her stand out.

Pink, poise, and perfection
Manika takes pride in her Indian roots, and here she is perfection in an elegant pink lehenga choli, looking nothing short of a true queen. Her poise in the beautifully shaded number is unparalleled.

Floral fantasy
She looks quite the floral fantasy in this modern Indian ensemble. The bold print has been used effectively in the crop top, flared pants, and jacket, making her look striking and bold. Her outfit has been styled with a choker and earrings, both complementing the fit beautifully.
