Actress Janhvi Kapoor, who made her Bollywood debut in Dhadak, has taken the internet storm for wearing a holographic outfit allegedly copied from international brand. It so happened that Janhvi shot for a new magazine cover shoot. In the photoshoot, the actress wore electric blue dress by Mumbai-based designer label, Purple Paisley.
The colour and design of Janhvi Kapoor’s shimmery dress is oddly close to that of international brand Balmain from their fall 2018 collection.

After Purple Paisley posted a picture of Janhvi from the Cosmo India photoshoot in the label's dress, fashionistas on social media couldn't keep calm as they couldn't help but point out that the design looked so similar.
'Copied', 'ripped off' and ultimately 'plagiarised' are the comments the Janhvi's look has been receiving.
