Pregnant actress Kiara Advani will be making her highly anticipated debut at the Met Gala 2025. The event, over the years, has seen a number of Indian celebrities walk its highly coveted red carpet, with the likes of Deepika Padukone, Priyanka Chopra, and Alia Bhatt making their mark. Kiara’s debut will see her name being included in this list.
The Met Gala, renowned for its homage to artistry and relevance to culture, will host Kiara, whose influence is rapidly extending beyond the Indian film circuit. She represented India last year at the Red Sea Film Foundation’s Women in Cinema Gala Dinner at Cannes, a testament to the nation’s growing presence on the global cinema map. Her bold pink and black ensemble with heavy lace work from Cannes went viral, drawing a lot of appreciation and prompting new fashion styles.
Apart from her fashion, Kiara has also established herself as one of the highest grossing actresses of Bollywood with seven global blockbusters under her belt that are a testimony to her gigantic popularity and box office pull. Her first-ever Met Gala appearance is another feather in her cap of increasing global stature, meaning more presence for her on the global front.
Scheduled to occur on Monday, May 5, the 2025 Met Gala will be co-chaired by actor Colman Domingo, musicians A$AP Rocky and Pharrell Williams, race car champion Lewis Hamilton, and Vogue’s Anna Wintour, while LeBron James will serve as the honorary chair. The theme this year, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” pays tribute to the extensive legacy of Black fashion.
On the personal front, Kiara and her actor husband Sidharth Malhotra recently announced they are expecting their first child together. The couple shared the joyful news on Instagram with a heartfelt post of their hands holding a pair of baby booties, with the caption, “The greatest gift of our lives.” However, precise details of Kiara’s due date remain under wraps.
Kiara and Sidharth began dating while filming war drama Shershaah, and the pair tied the knot in 2023 in a low-key ceremony in Rajasthan with close friends and family.
