Devdas
Let’s start from where this trend started. As we all know that Bhansali’s ‘Devdas’ was the most expensive film made in our country at that time.

Baji Rao Mastani
From Deepika Padukone aka Mastani’s intricate nath and royal neckpiece to Priyanka Chopra aka Kashibai’s bajuband and Marathi nath, each piece of jewelery oozes ancient style. It was made of 24 carat gold. It took the makers a long time to design the jewelery and they also used kundan, rubies and polki diamonds. Sanjay Leela Bhansali himself has mentioned this.
